RGB2RTG v0.5 - Redirect your AMIGA 1200 RGB image to RTG display

What looks to be an incredible piece of homebrew software has arrived on Itch.io that could change the game for Amiga 1200 PiStorm owners. Developed by Astair86, RGB2RTG is an unofficial Emu68 fork  designed to redirect the Amiga's native RGB video signal directly into the Raspberry Pi’s RTG HDMI display output. For years, PiStorm users have had to juggle multiple cables, switch inputs, or wait on upcoming hardware solutions like the "Frame Thrower" just to display native Amiga games and demos on the same modern screen as their RTG desktop. This experimental new utility apparently bypasses the need for extra hardware entirely, offering a software-driven bridge that seamlessly swaps between the RTG desktop and native screens on a single monitor.

Addams Family Amiga: The Backgrounds Edition - OCS and AGA Amigas, now with restored backgrounds! ( Coming October )

EAB member DJ Mike has announced a major breakthrough for Amiga owners, revealing a heavily modified "Backgrounds Edition" of Ocean's classic 1992 tie-in game, The Addams Family. Set for release in October 2026, this project rectifies a decades-old disappointment. When the original game launched across multiple platforms in the 16-bit era, the Amiga port notoriously lacked the detailed background artwork present on rival systems. Prompted by a discussion on the English Amiga Board (EAB) forums, DJ Mike reverse-engineered the game's code, discovering a startling secret: the original developers actually programmed the backgrounds to render, but the code ultimately ignored and overwrote them before they could reach the screen.

Flashback - A brilliant platformer is coming to the Atari ST via Neil Rackett

Something for the Atari ST today, as Neil Rackett is finally rectifying a 30+ year old disappointment for Atari fans by bringing Flashback to the Atari ST. While Delphine Software’s iconic 1992 cinematic platformer famously bypassed the system back in the day, Rackett has successfully ported REminiscence—Gregory Montoir's modern re-implementation of the original game engine—using STDL and Amiga data files. Described as a work-in-progress, this project will hopefully give a smooth gameplay experience on the Atari. Animations are optimized to run at a consistent 25fps on standard ST/STE models, while Mega STE users can enjoy up to a capped 30fps. The project even addresses the ST’s classic resolution limitations with clever menu options like "Fit," "Fill," and experimental "Overscan" modes to handle the original game's 224-pixel height on a standard 200-pixel screen.
