Cool No Promises

I'm going to attempt something in Amiga Assembly with a christmassy EAB theme. Possibly a small game. I'm not sure if I can do it yet so no promises. But I'll give it a go though. Time is as tight as a crabs wotsit for me but it'd be great to give you guys something back. It'd also be a fun learning experience.

Lightbulb Christmas games

What about putting games with a 'snow/ christmas'-theme in The Zone like Snowstrike, Santa's Christmas caper and Christmas Lemmings?

The 'snow' in Snow Strike means drugs like heroin, not Xmas stuff!

Red face Ooops...

Oi, I only looked to the title. Snowstrike does not support the 'christmas' thoughts. Oh, well...

It is remarkable how few Christmas games have been released on Amiga. I remember back in 1999 I put up 15 C64 programs with a christmas/snow theme on my homepage. Oswald, Ferris Xmas Caper, Santa Claus, Commodore Christmas demo to name but a few...

Big grin Hahahah

Is that the one programmed in Amos where you're Santa floating around holding onto balloons and trying to collect christmas presents. That was one of the few decent Amos games.

I would like to see Might & Magic 1

Before anybody says anything, the software house concerned was contacted some time ago, who said yes it was released on the Amiga, but they had no copy.
