08.07.2020 - 'ACME' V0.97 released
ACME is a free cross assembler released under the GNU GPL. It can produce code for the following processors: 6502, 6510 (including illegal opcodes), 65c02 and 65816. ACME supports the standard assembler stuff like global/local/anonymous labels, offset assembly, conditional assembly and looping assembly. It can include other source files as well as binaries while assembling. Calculations can be done in integer or float mode. Now with string symbols (finally!), lists, backslash escaping, "unpseudopc"-operator, MEGA65 support, !while, else if, and a CLI switch to mimic older versions. The switch is needed because some of the changes introduce a slight incompatibility.

06.07.2020 - 'Ftype' - new Amiga shooter announced - demo version available for download
User 'fabbroz' from 'English Amiga Board' has recently announced, he is working a new SHMUP for Amiga, which he develops in Amiblitz3. It is still in early phase (stress-test) but it is very fast on the Amiga 1200 Base (and on 500 if compiled with Blitz2.1, because it unfortunately can't be compile for A500 because of an Amiblitz3 problem).
