VIRTUAL GRAND PRIX AND THUNDERHELL GAMES BUNDLED ON THE A600GS
Cardiff, 4 August 2024
Famous Amiga games developer, Paolo Cattani has provided his classic Amiga games to be pre-installed on the new A600GS computer.
Virtual GP and Thunderhell are installed ready to play on the A600GS. Existing A600GS users can download a free update directly from Amisphere.com to install the games to the games menu.
Virtual GP was sadly Paolo's last production for the Amiga range of computers shortly after Commodore's bankruptcy. He wanted to to contribute to the Amiga games scene so started the development of Virtual GP (codename AlienF1). VGP would have to accomplish two missions: on the one hand, it would implement a fast 3D engine aimed at hi-specification Amigas (AGA and 68030 required) featuring gouraud shading, texture mapping, billboarding, curved surfaces and all the things that were “hot” at those times; on the other hand, it had to be the most realistic simulation of a Formula One car available on the Amiga.
Thunderhell is a classic shoot-em-up game. The game is an horizontal scrolling (with three levels of parallax), fast paced shoot’em up full of enemies, bullets, explosions and all the bells and whistles that one could expect from a game of that genre.
Matthew Leaman, MD of AmigaKit Ltd commented on the collaboration: “We are thrilled that Paolo has agreed to include his great games with the A600GS. We are grateful for his support of our project.”
Paolo Cattani added: “As a pioneer in the development of video games for the Amiga range of computers I'm very glad and honoured to give my contribution to an amazing project which keeps alive the memory of a machine that was such a glorious milestone of the IT history.”
The A600GS computer system is available now from AmigaKit.com and AmigaKit.fr
Additional Information about A600GS and it's components can be found on these websites:

| Only four months after its initial release, Pangomonium, the Hollywood plugin that contains a state-of-the-art text and graphics engine including full support for color emojis and exotic scripts, is now available in a brand-new version 2.0. This is a major update which now adds SVG support to the plugin. In comparison to the dedicated SVG plugin which has been available for Hollywood for over a decade, Pangomonium's SVG renderer supports more SVG features because Pangomonium's text and graphics engine is much more powerful than the one used in the other SVG plugin for Hollywood. Pangomonium 2.0 is now available for free download for various platforms from the official Hollywood portal. Note that Hollywood 10 is strictly required by Pangomonium 2.0.

VD aktuell 04 - Summer 2024 released |
| News posted by AndreasM on 13-Jul-2024 13:29:07 (943 reads) |
Summer fun with the retro gaming illustrated magazine on 64 full-color pages!
It's getting hot outside, time for some cool, easily digestible retro snacks! In the new issue of german VD aktuell, we take an intimate look at the relationship between Indiana Jones and Sophia Hapgood - are they really just colleagues? After a detour to the beach, we then head straight into space and reminisce about retro gaming classics. But we also take a look outside the box and talk about Planet of the Apes and a non-gaming phenomenon of the 1980s and 1990s: video libraries!
As always, there's news in the retro news section, plus brief introductions to new games and new hardware. The video program for the Virtual Dimension and Fog Lake Production channels once again gives you a detailed preview of the next three months and our comic "Danger Dennis" enters its second round.
What are you waiting for? Get your hands on it!
