News from Joel
Joel: Glames, please tell me a little about yourself and how you started with Amiga?
Glames: I live in the nice city of Nantes, France. I'm 39 years old (time flies!). I've founded the company "Boing Attitude" a few years ago. I work as a freelance project manager in computer area but also as a software editor. My main activity (project manager) makes it financially possible to work on Amiga software/video games projects.
The first time I saw a video game, it was an adventure game called « L'Aigle d'Or ». I played it on a Thomson MO5. I was a child at that time, had no money to buy it but really liked it. A few years later, my parents offered me an Amstrad CPC 464 that was quite cool with games like « Kick Off », « Grysor », « Platoon », « Karnov », « Jet Bike Simulator », « Super Sprint » … I got my first Amiga in 1987: an Amiga 500 and I still have in mind the first game I played, « Prince of Persia »: a good visual, great sounds and fluid animation. Then I got an Amiga 1200. Today, I don't have "Classic" Amiga any more but I switched to NG ones.
Joel: When did you decide to start to develop for AmigaOS, and why?
Glames: I think it was when I was a student, so about twenty years ago. I used AMOS, then AMOS Pro at that time. Really fun. I started a platform-game that I never finished. It was much inspired by « Superfrog », one of my favourite game. A fun and interesting hobby for a student in computer science!
