06.01.2020 - New Amiga game 'Matchic' available for pre-order
Coming on 18th January - Psytronik Software is very pleased to present 'Matchic', a puzzle game for the Commodore Amiga. 'Matchic' was originally released (very briefly) in 1991.

05.01.2020 - Elite 128 V2.0 released
This is the long awaited version 2.0 of Elite 128! Version 1.0 was released in 1998. Coder 'Uz' worked on it for about another year at that time adding new features and improving the code, then stopped without a new release. After not touching the code for about 13 years, he was contacted by some elite enthusiasts with questions. To answer them, he had to remove the dust from the old code. He reviewed the changes, recompiled the code and saw it was good. So he decided it would be a pity to have the code unreleased. Read the .txt included in the .zip file for more info.

Axis/Cascade is no more. We are all still shaken by the unexpected death of our friend and group mate Patrick aka Axis/Cascade. We wanted to express our sorrow, so I coded a little intro, which you can find in the C64 demo section of this page. The following text is a rough excerpt taken from the scroller:

Dear Patrick, may this be the condolence from the the group that was co-founded by you long time ago. We want to give you our last salute. I (Zeldin) know how much you were breathing the spirit of the scene. That's why I thought a goodbye demo would have made you happy. You and me exchanged lots of mails about how much we both enjoyed the good ol' days and of course: how much we miss them... It was this tie that emotionally connected us for over 15 years. Thanks for all your help in supporting the group and your indefatigable endeavour in spreading our name. Your tattoos were legendary! Thanks for your work on fb and youtube. Your channels were appreciated by a lot of people. Thanks for being such a good chap. You'll be sorely missed!!!

Mach's gut, Patrick... den Adler im Herzen, sge4ever!
