Mike Hawkins has released the lastest WIP of his game:Here’s the latest WIP of my 8-bit computer game conversion of Barbarian for the GBA. I started this sometime ago but had to put it the back burner because of work commitments. This WIP shows the first stage (background). Use directional keypad and A to see fighters movesand B to turn round (tap the B button quickly as this needs work).

I’ll be on a demoparty the next few days. The demoparty is called”Breakpoint 2003″and is a kinda Mekka Symposium replacement (more or less). Here are some more information:
The party will be held at the Bundeswehrdepot in Bingen am Rhein. Bingen itself is a small city on the river Rhine, in south-western Germany. It’s around 80km west of Frankfurt/Main, and 100km south of Cologne. It can be reached easily by car, rail, plane and ship. Among the features we’re planning are:
Lots of competitions for Amiga, PC and C64, music, graphics and the rest no gamers, no script kiddies, only creative people Space for more than 1000 visitors Warm sleeping hall (+hotel reservation service) A meadow outside the party hall (really 🙂 to crash, sit and drink Warm showers (in a seperate area, connected by the bus) Tasty food at decent prices (Currywurst, Fries, Pizza and more) Full list A working party network (no promises about the speed) Traditional entertainment provided by Steeler and our new co-host XXX a BIG screen and powerful sound system Seperate chillout/meeting/boozing-tent Second stage with djs, liveacts and more. Lots of fun compos, liveacts and surprises… …and of course scenish, friendly atmosphere created by us and YOU

Nearly complete, fully playable version of Sierra’s 1983-classic”Oil’s Well”. I haven’t done any work on this one for almost a year now, and although it doesn’t seem too likely that I’ll have the time to wrap up it’s loose ends any time soon, I figured it’d be a pity if nobody out there would ever know of my puny GBA efforts. Therefore I am hereby releasing ‘my’ recreation of Oil’s Well upon the public, featuring:- all 8 original levels (repixeled by hand for 240×160)- hiscore-list

Darts GP32 is my first officially released homegrown game for the GP32. This is a mainly feedback release and as such the game isnt fully complete. This version only has a two player mode and one type of darts game. If I get good feedback on the game I will continue with it and add other features such as a CPU opponent, other types of darts games, animations, tournament mode, practise mode, highscores etc.Its really important that I get feedback on this game (good or bad) otherwise I will just stop working on it 🙂

Thanks to Sixxie, author of GPRoar – emulator of Dragon 32/64 system, i got a posibility to test upcoming”alpha 4″version of this emu. And here is what is new up to previous release. Joysticks now seem to completely work – when one is in use, the other acts as though disconnected so thanks to it more games are playable 🙂 Sound is much better in this release – still a bit ‘scratchy’, but perfectly listenable now. On screen you can see really cool game (very playable) called Buzzard Bait. This is a really good port or rather good rip-off of Joust game.
Taken from GP32emu:
NeoGp32 is a NeoGeo Pocket emulator for the GP32. ThunderZ the author sent me a BETA to test, and it is currently running most games (all the ones I tested) at around 20FPS with GFX errors and no sound. Although having said that since he sent me the BETA he’s said that he now has all games working with no GFX errors at 12FPS 🙂 Also ThunderZ has somebody (who wants to remain annomous ) working on the sound part of NeoGp32.
Changes:
V1.4 – 2003-04-14Correct VDC reads (fixes”Bullfight Ring no Haja”&intro of”Darkwing Duck”).
