BOH - demo for AmigaOS available

[saimo]

Hi all,

I'd like to inform you that I have added a FAQ page to BOH's website where I collected all the questions, observations and answers scattered in the various threads here and elsewhere. The page turned out to contain plenty of interesting information about the present and also the future.
Thanks to all those who contributed!

I hope it sells well for you as it looks like alot of hard work to get it to this final stage and thank you for delivering a new Amiga game in 2009  :-D

Hi everybody,

I would just like to ask whether anybody outside of Italy has received his copy of BOH (I am wondering because I can track the shipping only until the package leaves Italy - after that, you should be able to track it by passing the tracking number I gave you to your local postal service).

Thanks.

Hi all,

I have added a players' comments page to the website: I would gladly include more, so do not hesitate to express your opinion!

- And do not forget that I am waiting for feedback to improve the update even further ;-)

@BOH owners who happen to have also a MacOS X machine

The MacOS X port was completed a couple of days ago, now it is time to test the installer: can anyone please help? Please contact me by email at postmaster(at)bohthegame(dot)com.

Thanks in advance.

Hi all,

a fellow amigan (thanks, Yaroze!) experienced problems on his SAM after installing update1: more precisely, it seems that the optimizations for 3x and 4x zooming were not well digested and even caused the program to crash. The fix is included in the update2 archive that can be downloaded from the DOWNLOADS page of the website. Installing this update is strongly recommended to everybody.

On another note, has anybody tried BOH on expanded classic Amigas yet?

P.S.: for the very curious ones, yesterday Troll in the Corner published a short interview with me here.

Hi again,

I'm back to announce that, thanks to Ricky Johansson (AKA Yaroze), BOH has now also a Swedish translation! It's available at the DOWNLOADS page of the website.

Hi all,

the AmigaOS demo is now available on the DOWNLOADS page of the website.
At the same time, the demo mission has been released also for BOH owners (downloadable from the same page).

Enjoy,

You mean AmigaOS4, right?! As classic amigas are not (yet ?) supported. I've tried it on a pc though and to me it looks and feels a bit like payback. So maybe you will consider a version for iPhone too, just like payback ?

Ah, right... yes, I meant exactly that. Sorry :p

As classic amigas are not (yet ?) supported.

And they'll never be (see Q/A #18 on the FAQ page of the website).

I've tried it on a pc though and to me it looks and feels a bit like payback.

Well, I honestly can't express any opinion, since I've never played Payback.

So maybe you will consider a version for iPhone too, just like payback ?

No, for the reasons reported in the Q/A #17.

Hi all,

due to the rework of Amiga.org I couldn't post this before, so: the demo is now available also for MacOS and Windows. Moreover, the AmigaOS version has been re-released and now includes one more mission and a preview of the C64 theme.
You can get the demo from the DOWNLOADS page of the website.

Hi everybody,

another quick update to inform you that the first draft of the developer's manual is now available for download on the DOWNLOADS page of the website.
At the moment it covers only the creation of missions, but the rest is already being worked on.
This release allows who wants to make his own missions to get started without having to wait any longer and, at the same time, will be useful to see what needs to be changed/clarified/added (so, please, do not hesitate to give feedback).

Enjoy,
saimo
