Hello everyone!
I'm really happy to share with the Amiga community a playable demo of my game called "The Gate", it's around 1.5 hours of gaming if the player checks everything!
Quote:
The game is set in a dystopian future not too far from our own.
The player takes on the role of a private detective named Kal Debris, the owner of an agency struggling due to debt.
One day, he receives a job offer from a doctor at a famous research institute to investigate the disappearance of her friend and colleague.
The game is heavily inspired by "Mission Impossible" and "Project Firestart," but with my own ideas, gameplay mechanics, and an engaging story. |
You can enjoy the demo with your real Amiga or using an emulator, it should work fine with every Amiga that can handle EHB mode and is equipped with some fast memory.
An user has reported to have played the demo on his expanded A500+ @7 MHz without any issue, but I cannot guarantee that this speed is enough for some more complex levels that are in the late game.
The free public post is on Patreon with the download, as well as with some more details about the current development state. 
Please have the time to read the post and the included readme.txt file to better enjoy the game demo, I explain how you have to expect, the controls, how the saves work, and many other useful information.
Patreon public post
Let me know if there are problems, bugs, errors, typos, etc... so I can fix them.
It would be great if you could tell me what actual hardware you tested the game on.

Hi all!
Have you ever found yourself installing the same program over and over again, on your different Amigas? You can now automate this process, even remotely, with TINAPAMA! 
TINAPAMA (TINAPAMA is Not A Package Manager) brings automated program installation to Classic Amigas. It differs from AmiUpdate on AmigaOS 4 and Easy2Install on MorphOS by providing a simple command line and decentralised program descriptions. TINAPAMA allows updating programs individually or in groups, physically or remotely.
A typical use of TINAPAMA would be to execute the following command to update AmiModRadio:
1.C:> TINAPAMA Utilitaires:Musique/Divers/AmiModRadio/AmiModRadio.tinapama
and TINAPAMA would parse the description file AmiModRadio.tinapama, download, unarchive, and copy the new files into Utilitaires:Musique/Divers/AmiModRadio, only if the local version is outdated.
TINAPAMA uses a description file to locate the remote version of a program and compare its version with the version in the local drawer. You can use ready-made description files or create your own. The drawer being updated is the drawer in which the description file, typically ending with .tinapama (e.g., AmiModRadio.tinapama above), is located. In addition to any file updated by TINAPAMA, a new file called TINAPAMA.data will be created/updated in the drawer to contain local version information.
TINAPAMA works, of course  , with Aminet packages: with or without the Version: field in their READMEs, with or without top drawers in their archives. It also works with packages in GitHub and should work all the same with packages in BitBucket, codeBerg, or SourceForge! It is open source.
Get it here:
- First public release, which implements all the options that have been useful to update more than 100 programs on my A4000!
- Read-made description files for hundreds of programs!
More info. here. All questions, comments, and bug reports are welcome! 
Full disclosure: I intend to submit TINAPAMA to the Amiga 40 Tools Jam 2025!
Cheers!

BOING, a 10th Anniversary Issue... |
| News posted by Glames on 28-Jul-2025 16:31:41 (31222 reads) |
 Boing Attitude never does things halfway, and this time, it’s going even bigger! You’ll get a 104-page issue, instead of the usual 52... And BOING is not only in French, but also in English! Oh my gosh! No, you’re not dreaming: you’ll have 104 pages all about the Amiga in every possible form to read. Why? Because a tenth anniversary is something to celebrate, but also, and especially, because in 2025, the Amiga turns forty!
In this issue, you'll find an exclusive interview with Timothy De Groote, the new head of Hyperion Entertainment. This is his first public statement since taking over as head of the publisher of AmigaOS 3.2 and 4.1, and we asked him all the questions—even the tough ones (justice, THE A1200...). There’s also a feature on Mirari, the new PowerPC motherboard designed for AmigaOS 4.1 and MorphOS 3.20. We’ve also tested the A600GS and even compared it to THEA500 Mini. Hot off the press, we’ve also played the brand-new Krogharr. And of course, the demo scene is not forgotten with an interview with the Batman Group and the legendary Moby... El Mobo!
Of course, there are tons of other articles to read in what is the largest print magazine fully dedicated to the Amiga in at least twenty years. So, what are you waiting for to join us?!
BOING is a magazine dedicated to the Amiga computer, whether original ("classic") or new generation. It deals with all its variations or rather variants ;) : AmigaOS (1.x, 2.x, 3.x), AmigaOS 4.1, MorphOS, AROS and ApolloOS.
BOING, the Amiga in all its variants!
More details here.
