What about a PD Game collection?

rsn8887 · 29 April 2017, 05:11

There are now finally several great collections of commercial Amiga games (KG WHDLoad packs, Gamebase Amiga, RetroPie WHDLoad collection etc.).

One of the Amiga's strengths especially in later times, were the amazing PD games though.

What about all those PD games? Has anyone made a good collection on HDF, ideally with a launcher for easy game selection?

There isn't one as far as I'm aware, and I have been looking (albeit half-heartedly) for one of these recently also. Unless you count the CD which came on the front of Amiga Power.

When I was around 13-14 years old I put together about a dozen Assassins style disks for my classmates using PD games and menu systems which were mostly from the cover of magazines. It's not difficult at all, but it is somewhat time consuming to do it right.

The easiest way might be to find all the public domain and shareware games which have a WHDLoad slave and use one of the many WHDLoad launchers to access them.

I recommend very much Mombasajoe's PD compilation:

You can find the latest version on the FTP under my folder (~Uploads/Akira)
