Pickup your time machine and travel back, dive into an alternative universe where Doom was never released for PCs in 1993, but several years earlier on the humble Amiga 500! Grind is a new fps game powered by the amazing Dread engine: a mindblowing achievement which showcases what was really possible with Amiga’s original hardware! This project is currently a…
A1200.net, the team behind the Amiga 1200 casing Kickstarter are back again with another crowd funder for a new compatible case for the Amiga 500 & Amiga 500 Plus.

ADTWin is a free tool for writing Amiga disks from a PC. It requires a Windows PC with a parallel port and a floppy disk drive that is connected to the PC’s parallel port by a self-made cable. The disk content has to be provided in form of an Amiga Disk File. Only the original double-density Amiga disk format (for 880kB disks) is…
This morning I learned about a new Amiga 500 emulator that runs on Google Chrome. It is a native port using Portable Native Client, a way to run existing C/C++ in the browser in a safe way across operating systems and across machine architectures. I was curious to see how it performs, so I spent some time playing with it. As…
