Ultima 7 (Exult) - Modern recreation gets an Amiga AGA release!


In 1992, Origin Systems and designed by Richard Garriott released one of the best RPG's ever created, a game that even today can be enjoyed by many by downloading it from GOG. It just had to be ' Ultima VII: The Black Gate ', the seventh instalment of the Ultima series of role-playing video games, with the designer even saying  "was the most masterfully executed of the Ultima series. his own favorite instalment overall ". It was so popular by the gamers that a fan based developer created ' Exult ' which is a project to recreate Ultima 7 for modern operating systems, using the game's original plot, data, and graphics files.  Well that same engine has now been made available for the Amiga by NovaCoder with the recent release of the Amiga AGA port of Exult!

NovaCoder has really kicked it up a notch in the Amiga scene as another bit of news from our friend Solo Kazuki, is the 1.21 Nova release of both Spear of Destiny and Wolfenstein 3D as Amiga AGA editions. Spear of Destiny originally developed by id Software in 1992 is the prequel to the genre defining first person shooter of id Software's Wolfenstein 3D.  In regard to these Amiga AGA ports, they are based on various SDL version's of Wolfenstein 3D and some bits from DOOM.

Duke Nukem 3D - AGA port for the Amiga released!


Although it's rare, there are occasions when we miss out on the latest Amiga releases, which is usually because we don't get the news sent to us, or it involves a lot more than delving into the depths of a hard forum discussion. Well thankfully one of our readers by the name of Solo Kazuki has sent us a number of Amiga updates with one of them announcing the release of the NovaCoder's Duke Nukem 3D AGA port for the Amiga.  Originally released in the 90's for the PC and other's, this port has been found by NovaCoder on his hard drive and works on the Amiga 1200 and above.

Breathless - AGA first person shooter for Amiga CD32


Another day, another Earok Amiga CD32 port release and once again it's a first person shooter in the form of Breathless. Developed by Fields of Vision, Breathless is a great action game as it has mood and atmosphere, huge levels to explore, enough combat to keep the player interested and a Doom style engine in lovely 256 AGA colours. Although this is the last of the AGA first person shooter Amiga CD32 ports by Earok, it's actually one of the best and runs much better than the previous release.

Leading Lap MPV - AGA racer gets an Amiga CD32 conversion


Good afternoon gamers, I hope everyone had a good weekend! Thus with a new week it's a new Earok Amiga CD32 port and none other than Leading Lap MPV; a '95 AGA racing game for the Amiga. Although the game is fun to play as you race around the track at break neck speeds, it's no way as good as the brilliant Formula One, Still though atleast it's free and will probably be the last of the racing AGA conversions, so enjoy it and look forward to another release tomorrow.
