I just don't announce because People tend to copy it instead of working together.

It is like pinky and the Brain when pinky says something And Brain says afterwards "i had an idea" : )


If you are referring to E-Eon stealing your amiappstore idea, then i dont think so.

After all, I had idea for ami appstore already 2005, and that was based upon seeing wildgames wildcoins system, from which i thought my own version of it for Amiga (by other words, was copying the idea with own additions), which was more of a half way from wildgames system and todays appstores. However, since in these last 10 years i havent got any games released (which is bit embarassing), my plan never came to reality (or even got started rather). And after Apple and Android appstore came to be, im pretty sure theres couple of hundred more or less serious ideas about amiappstore existing in peoples heads.

So, no. I doubt they stole your idea. they just got it just like you did by seeing those other appstores.

But so far it seems your idea seems to be having more unique ideas, although i think it is also riskier in terms of succeeding. Amistore is somewhat safeplay. Nothing big, but quite sure bet.

I see that similar...

Finally the developers will decide where to put their software. It seems that Amigakit/A-eon support 3rd party developments, I could guess that they try to get some of the software exclusive on their app store. But other than that everyone can decide where to sell or distribute what he creates. I only hope that this platform will be open for news regarding new software even if it sold on the other store and not only this one.

I see your point, but adding news/items not contained in AmiStore for example will just be confusing for users (even tho the available software AND users are in orders of magnitude lower than for Steam). Whatever I read on the frontend of Steam I expect to be available/usable for Steam.

This isn't the first attempt at an Amiga store either.  Bill P. (second owner of this site) tried to get one going a few years back but it didn't pan out.

perhaps exactly cause its pointless? what are you going to be selling there? preorders for new upcoming version of tremendously outdated aladdin or warp3d? some background desktop candy and half done skins, i hear they are animated now, what for? packages of other items that have been avaolable separately anyway? links to blogs everybody knows about, only if someone was posting there regularly?

Whoa, hold on, back up.  Keep your venom to yourself, man.  Bill's app store was planned to be just as open to third party programers as this one is.

Stop talking about things you know nothing about. All of your assumptions are inaccurate.

why not elaborate, for instance on aladdin project status?

Please take this line of questioning to another thread, so it does not take this thread further "Off Topic".

Thanks,
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)
