still setting up fusion/shapeshifter on my system, but this game is on top of my list, too! its easy to find if you use BT. did have a look around on the 'net and it seems some people have managed to run the game, but havent seen screenshots or videos so far.

I just gave the demo a try on my Fusion & 060+RTG setup. This game really flies.. although for some reason it will only run in 640x400 low resolution. Still looks quite okay and sound effects and music are nice, too.
 
I tried some other games. Wolfenstein 3D runs considerably faster than the Amiga port. Its almost unplayable really.
 
Would love to try other games but for some reason a lot of downloaded archives (mostly hqx) are unrecognised on Mac side. I remember something about removing the extension under AmigaOS, copying them to Mac partition, and then restoring the filename, but that didnt really work.. what was that trick again?
 
Also, does anyone have any sources for games? Demos are fine. Im most specifically looking for an 68K version of Tomb Raider and Photoshop 5. Can someone help? (I dont care if its legal or not. both titles are more than 10 years old!)
