Hi everyone,

The Atari Falcon now has a port of Worms (Team 17)! :)

Worms Team 17 Atari Falcon

It's great to see so much activity on old platforms these days, like Atari, Commodore, Amiga etc.

@AmigaOldskooler

I can remember how we spent one Christmas playing the original Amiga Worms..good times.

For me, the most remarkable retro news was that some crazy guys ported Pinball Dreams to Amstrad. http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=68387

@AmigaOldskooler

Has it been open sourced? I thought Worms was ported to every platform available back in the day.

@kolla

I've been playing Worms 2: Armageddon on my phone. Just like PS3 version. But too small and harder to play. Doesn't work well on touch screen. Can't drag the screen around like a title bar. Still would like an OS4 port.

@Hypex

The author received permission from Team 17 to do a port from Mac to Atari. I don't think the game is open source in general, but not sure. Should be possible asking Team 17 if someone could do a port to AmigaOS 4.

@AmigaOldskooler

I agree. Would like the later version on OS4. Though having Worms 3d would also be good. Downloaded some Mac demo once but couldn't get it to work.

Well, Hyperion (said they) had the license to port Worms Armageddon since..1999? 2000? So I guess just two more weeks

I believe the license was only valid for the AmigaNG platform that was never delivered by Gateway.

edit.

Just had a proper look and found the license was also valid for 68k and WarpOS.

Of course, that's not to say that it's still valid.

Richard Drummond had already done much of the work on Gorky 17 years ago before he left the Amiga scene. I'm not sure how much work was required for Frank and Thomas to complete it but Worms Armageddon, if the license was still valid, would require anyone taking it on to start from scratch.
