Title: Status of Word Me Up XXL new releases
Post by: mailman on July 16, 2008, 04:38:23 AM
Despite of our best efforts, there won't be any other Amiga versions of WordMeUp XXL. We advise Amiga fans to use modern "NG" systems like MorphOS 2.0 or AmigaOS 4.1 to enjoy the awarded game.

WordMeUp XXL development on AROS is on hold for now: stability issues (no more stable version), issues with exchange of data between several computers... We'll study again this release in a few months. We're quite confident that AROS will be better at that time.

WordMeUp XXL development on AmigaOS 3.x is canceled. We tried to make WordMeUp XXL for WinUAE units. But, after had sucessfully ported it to this emulator, result is not as good as we hope, notably concerning playability. That why there won't be any 68k version.

A Windows release is planned. MacOS and Linux releases are also studied with care.

How can we use AmigaOS 4.1 to enjoy the game if there's no more Amiga versions...?

Can you clarify please?

Those versions (OS4, MOS) are already finished and have been released.

Hello,

As Matt_H has already said, game is already released on MorphOS 1.4.5 and AmigaOS 4.0.

I just mentionned Mos 2.0 and AmigaOS 4.1 because these are the lastest (or soon to be) versions of these systems.

The game is of course compatiblewith Mos 2.0 and AmigaOS 4.1.

Thanks.
