I think the member here called Cammy is still involved with a group that are writing games for the Classic AmigaOS3.x, but will let her speak for herself as I do not remember the name of the group.

It's Underground Arcade.  There is a website in the works at http://www.underground-arcade.com/ if you're interested.

Cool.  The only concern is that their last blog entry is 15 months old.  Do you know whether they're still up and progressing?
I think they (Cammy and RebelCD32) lost the password to the blog.  I talked to Cammy on their IRC room on chat.AmigaWorld.net and she said she is going to learn to program in AmigaE.  They have pixel artists and level designers so they are mainly needing programmers and sound support.

I try to chat with them as often as I can so they know what is and is not possible on classic Amiga hardware.  It is looking at this point as if Halloween Nightmare will come out for AGA chipset first and later, OCS if ever (primarily due to the narrow size of the sprites on OCS/ECS and the 512k maximum Chip RAM addressing on OCS).

Underground Arcade has lots of plans for games on classic Amigas but not enough manpower to complete the job.
