There will be a try before you buy playable demo near time of release

Our hero encounters Grok the bear in the Shiverdawn Mountains. AmigaBill'bo offers possible help on the quest to get to the top of the mountain to defeat the Ice Maiden, Moya.

I'd more likely enslave myself by Moya the Ice Maiden rather than defeat her. :P

What if I don't trust either AmigaBill'bo or Moya? Can I just go through the mines of Mangus?

If I was starting out now as a first timer on Amiga, I would certainly consider using Scorpion Engine at the top of the list first. Developing for the Amiga platform otherwise would be a pretty extreme uphill climb for many, that would certainly stifle development without a lot of prior Amiga hardware knowledge upfront otherwise IMHO.

The hardest part about developing any game is the level design fatigue that usually comes with it and kills the release plans of many. Sometimes you have to just work through that pain to reach the end. It's very hard at times that.

Good Luck

Nice post with a lot of truth in it..
