New AmigaDE game in the works

[ghauber]

An early preview of a new Amiga Anywhere game has been posted.  It hopefully will be released sometime around when the new AACE is released (soon).

Go there: Go for Goal

Also, the web page giving a brief introduction to the Amiga Anywhere Java API, Jami, has been updated with more information and a small code example.

Go there: Jami

hehe this reminds me of Wayne Gretzky hockey. Used to play that for hours.  :-)

It looks great.

Looking froward to purchasing it (and release of new AACE)

That page is not a bad page. Explains what JAMI is and give me confidence, that Amiga Inc are writing some quality software, not just waiting for OS4 to come out.

Cant wait till AmigaOS is integreated with the DE (or visa verso) so that then we can write portable AmigaOS apps in any language

[ghauber]

give me confidence, that Amiga Inc are writing some quality software, not just waiting for OS4 to come out.

Yes, Amiga definitely has not been just sitting on their hands waiting for OS4.  Development on the DE has been ongoing, and I'm sure people will be pleased when they see what Amiga has been up to.

Well given that Fleecy is a workaholic I never doubted that he would be working damn hard on the "DE" platform. ;-)

However most people be pleased? Hmm. Lets not forget who we are talking about here - people that see a basic PPC OS as being advanced wont even consider the "DE" as anything other than a distraction when Amiga Inc should have been creating the new Lorraine.

I am however not one of those people - my take is that Bill and Fleecy should have cut ties with the Amiga community in 2000 and called the Amiga Anywhere range something else.

However most people be pleased? Hmm. Lets not forget who we are talking about here

Let me qualify what I said with the following:  Most people who have been disappointed at the slow progress (or apparent lack of progress) of the DE and who are genuinely interested in the DE's future, will be pleased.

I was just about to get a little worried about DE/Anywhere. Good to know that there are stuff coming.  :-)

[Ohno]

Trust me.. I'm an Amiga-Anywhere content-developer under NDA and SDA with Amiga (I'm also the other guy working on this Go for Goal-game and jami together with Gabriel).

Currently I'm also testing several application from other developers on my PDA... there is plenty of quality stuff being done for Amiga-Anywhere.

Good to know that there are stuff coming

I don't know how much stuff is coming, but I do know there is definitely more stuff coming, and some of it very high quality (e.g. look at ZeoNeo's upcoming Crossword Evolution game).

[ghauber]

Trust me..

Are you sure, with a face like that?  :-D

[Ohno]

Are you sure, with a face like that

Well.... thrust me on this then: it's better than my real one

I could also pretty well do with a bucket.. sadly that idea is copyrighted by Coder already

[System]

yeah yeah nice nice the games that are coming but
when will there be 3D games i have seen pictures with 3d games for pda so what do we want with just another puzzel game i can't code so don't get me wrong it's good that those games are there as wel but we need 3d thats the future

[ghauber]

when will there be 3D games

Dunno, when someone gets around to it I guess.  I think there maybe one or two DE projects doing 3d

we need 3d thats the future

We need 3d, agreed.  but, it's only *part* of the future.

Hyperion are working on Ami3D, which will help developers aiming to produce 3D games for the PDA market.

Read paragraph 6 of the following article for further details about developer tools in the works.
