Hyper Runner - A wicked sci-fi racer for the Amiga AGA by Raster Wizards

Bruce Lee - A personal favourite of mine ;) arrives on the Amiga via Tim Kovack

A personal favourite of mine with many hours spent playing it on the Amstrad CPC, has appeared as a port on the Commodore Amiga from Kagesan's Sega Master System 2015 version, with the recent release of Bruce Lee. Developed for the classic Amiga OCS with just 512k of RAM by Tim Kovack, this conversion brings the beloved 8-bit hit over to Commodore’s 16-bit machine with full NTSC and PAL support. Instead of rewriting the game from scratch, the developer translated the original Master System game logic directly from Z80 assembly code to 68000 machine language. This method ensures that the core mechanics, timing, and gameplay feel identical to the console edition. When loaded up on an NTSC Amiga, the game hits a smooth 60 Hz to match the original console's velocity, while PAL region systems run the title at 50 Hz—resulting in a roughly 17% slower pace that perfectly mirrors how the game behaved on European Master System consoles.

Double Dragon - A classic 1980's beat 'em up but with a twist! (PC)

The legendary 1980's beat-’em-up franchise has been reimagined in the form of Double Dragons, an ambitious new PC release designed as an alternate-history sequel to the series’ first two mainline entries. Billed as a love letter to original creator Yoshihisa Kishimoto, this championship-edition brawler imagines an alternate timeline where Japan's Technosoft stepped up to challenge Capcom’s Final Fight crown. Treating the original games as post-apocalyptic New York folklore, this instalment promises a definitive, untold story line, complete with a proper conclusion and a sharp twist ending. Alongside upgraded pixel art and quality-of-life gameplay enhancements, the title features an expansive campaign spanning 6 major missions and 14 distinct levels, packed with more weapons, bosses, and enemy variants than ever before.

NYBBLE & NIBBLE - An impressive AI Amiga game, that isn't actually AI Slop

Welcome to NYBBLE & NIBBLE, a new Commodore Amiga port of the original Commodore 64 adventure. Developed by Gaboo Arts Entertainment, the game translates its signature 60-room journey into a visually stunning experience for the Amiga. Players guide a tiny, half-byte protagonist named Nybble across six distinct zones of compact, rhythmic platforming challenges, searching for their missing half. While the game faithfully preserves the movement mechanics of the C64 original—including precise wall-jumps and a versatile eight-direction air dash—it transforms the game for the Amiga with beautifully reworked graphics, richer scenery, and custom Amiga music and sound effects that make the fictional, glowing circuit-board environments truly come alive.

However, anglers must stay sharp; a hungry great white shark patrols the waters, ready to snap the catch right off the line if players aren't fast enough on the reel.

Star Trek Judgement Rites (Amiga Interpreter) - The sequel to Star Trek: 25th Anniversary arrives on the Amiga!

Thirty-four years after Interplay first brought 25th Anniversary to the Amiga, nexusle has achieved the impossible by making Star Trek: Judgment Rites playable on the Amiga. While the classic Star Trek: 25th Anniversary received an official Amiga AGA port in the 1990s, its highly anticipated sequel never happened with an exclusive release for MS-DOS and Macintosh systems. Now, thanks to a newly released custom interpreter, classic computer fans can bridge that decades-old gap. The community-driven software allows Amiga systems to run the original 1993-95 game code, fully supporting both enhanced AGA graphics and modern RTG video cards, alongside crisp AHI audio. Better yet, the interpreter lowers the game’s original hefty Macintosh hardware requirements; while the original title demands a powerful 68040 processor, this clever Amiga port is highly optimized, scaling down to run on a humble 68ec020 CPU backed by FastRAM with just a few simple adjustments to the software's tooltypes.
