*** Let's all help saimo bring out a New Game coming for OS4.x ***

[klx300r]

Hi everybody, I've had the pleasure to try out an original, addictive  new game by saimo (Simone Bevilacqua) who we all know has brought us  glUAE, BOH, KOG & now his latest creation is Huenison  webite linky

Problem  is the game is only for PC right now as his old A1-XE has called it  quits after numerous attempts to have it patched up.  I say we band  together and help him purchase a new Sam460/A1-500 or X1000 as all his  work is done on his Amiga! If we got together to buy a Sam460 for DJnick  to give us some wallpapers surely we can help out Simone a little bit  too

We  all know that times have been rough lately so Anyone that wants to help  out with the cause can donate at glUAE's homepage (donate button at  bottom left of screen)(donate linky).

@ wawrzon

He did put out a few nice startup jingles and some nice WB backdrops/Themes but my point is the community got together to get him set up and Simone has done all his development solely on his Amiga for years and is an OS4 veteran so he desperately needs new hardware.
As I'm a big fan of glUAE & BOH I was hoping to help him out with a few donations.

C'mon guys there are a lot of other OS4.x threads to troll on so let this one be.

[klx300r]

what os4 threads? i dont see any.. except the one about xena, but whats left to be said about it?

The ones like this that thankfully keep getting bumped and derailed by the usual suspects. Though strangely I do miss ol Piru as he never missed an OS4.x related thread here.

Keep on trolling boys as this is one thread I'd like the 2 or 3 remaining OS4.x users here to see only the first post. So predictable:knuddel:

Saimo never asked for getting new hardware:

Thanks for the clarification and hence my attempt to raise a few dollars for him because he NEEDS a new machine and would never ask for help but being a big fan of glUAE and BOH I was hoping to get some support and help him out. I realize this site is not exactly the target market for this type of thread though but I'd thought at least a few people might be interested here and as the trolls can't resist bumping any OS4.x related thread it's a win win

I have donated him a few EUR but I dislike the extend of "donation requesting" that has started in the community for some time.

Thanks much appreciated :-) it is voluntary to donate and if it helps out our developers and keeps them motivated it's a good thing to do

Saimo is the only Amiga developer who we have been able to buy real, physical copies of his games from in recent years. His games get published and supported properly, he is a professional independent developer and really deserving of some new hardware! I have been following his progress on this game and it would be so disappointing if it never came out on any Amiga OSs. I have no doubt that he wouldn't just take the money/Amiga and run, he's an honourable and humble guy who gets the job done!

Have you all played his wonderful tribute to Amiga games, MEMO? If not, give it a go and let the nostalgia put a smile on your face as you pick and recognise all the famous Amiga characters. Check it out here - http://www.retream.com/MEMO/ It'll run on any Amiga with a 020+, including ECS machines.

thanks Cammy i forgot to mention MEMO in my original post.

for those that may be interested to try MEMO on their classics !

'MEMO is a card memory game with some nice features, among which a simultaneous 2-player mode which adds the fun of battling a friend in real time.
You can find all the details on its website at MEMO webpage
 The game is available for free download and glUAE users can get it downloaded, configured and installed for transparent emulation by the specific helper available on the HELPERS page of the glUAE website

*- for all that are interested, Simone has clarified a few questions over at aw.net thread-*

[klx300r]

just got an update that Simone is still without an Amiga  :-(

thanks to all that have donated to date:)

...
You guys get this guy a SAM460 and I'll pay for a MorphOS key for it when Pega-1 and the other developers have the port ready.
That way he has the option of developing on either OS.

yes the recent news of MorphOS being ported to a Sam460ex is a win-win! that's a generous offer:)
