Adrian, do you think your CD releases will be burned, or pressed?

YES!! In my opinion Cyberpunks is Your best game, so Cyberpunks 2 for AGA is at least good information.

And please don't forget to add CD32 joypad (and compatible) support even for floppy (?) version.

Burned as pressing is out of the question due to amount expected to ship. This is small time business and not like the golden era of course.

Go for pressed ones.
I can help you if you want.

It´s not that expensive. All of my releases are pressed CDs.
Plus don´t forget the CD32 laser issues.

Just drop me a PM if you want.

I have no idea how to make the demo work in an emulator. All is hear is music (beautiful music) and see a blank screen when using either WinUAE or FSUAE.

Update:
Nevermind. Suddenly started working.
Don't ask me.

[LongLifeA1200]

This game is really nice.

Yes I will only produce AGA games now, so CyberPunks 2 will be AGA. It will be CD32 joypad compatible as standard I can assure you of that.

I do not want to commit just yet, but it is possible that the redesign will feature 2 player co-op mode along with usual single player.

There will be a mission where you rescue AmigaBill tho for sure.

Early days on that tho

[Adrian Cummings]

We hope to sell another 100+ Physical units of Wiz before the end of January 2021. That does not include the Digtial sales which have done OK actually in only 48hrs. Various prebooked magazine ads and advertising will hopefully see that happen as we move thru Christmas. This is a difficult thing to do on a tight budget tho and wanting to keep it fun above all else is the main goal.

The next release (hopefully the reissue of the Gold Compilation on CD32) will happen regardless because it's a personal thing I have with that past release that has to be addressed before I can move on LOL

I doubt that release if I can get it all working, will be anything other than a small run of CDR's in a CD case with nice front colour artwork or even perhaps just a downloadable .ISO option perhaps so you can burn it yourself.

Thanks,

Adrian

Thank you for your support! I did put my all into it to be honest I can say that with hand on heart.

For the record: The game took around 1400-1500hrs over approx 10.5 months to produce from initial idea in brain to getting it into a box etc for sale.

I do this as an 'extreme' kinda hobby thing alongside other non-retro work mostly day to day, and although it's not really possible to make a living from it any longer in this form, It does pay the wine and curry bills nicely and helps a little bit towards keeping the Amiga/Retro scene alive of course.

AMIGAAAAA!

[Adrian Cummings]

Latest: Wiz glossy Big Boxes are coming there will only be 50 - they aint cheap but they should like the real deal - just like the old Amiga retail days!

More revealed when they arrive here all being well.

The website will updated at 10AM in the morning [Edit: It's updated now] for the older game restock.

The Big glossy lift of lid rigid boxes are on order from today - I will show you them when they arrive. They should look fantastic hopefully.

Here is a picture from the Mis_DK Twitch stream tonight that just ended - gotta love Teddy for this

[torturedutopian]

@Adrian : ah, i see the new copies are here on http://softwareamusements.com/Mutati...are/index.html

Can you enlighten us on what kind of things were remastered ? Are there actually changes to the gameplay, bugfixes etc. ?

Just wondering whether I get all of them or just 1 or 2 favorites

/me will be able to play all of those on FPGA in a couple weeks. Cannot wait

[Adrian Cummings]

@torturedutopian Yes they are up a little earlier than planned today as I am busy on CD32 release fixes. Basically when they were rereleased this year I had to fix some bugs, minor graphics and text in all of the games. Tommy Gun was the worst as it had a nasty boot bug in the original that has since been corrected. All the games were also retested and then made available again for resale with updated docs, WB icon launch along with autoboot and info and with all new physical packaging artwork.

Thank you,

Adrian

That Teddy costume was fantastic. He ever created parts of it in 3D printer, specially for his Wiz stream.

[Adrian Cummings]

My mind was blown for such effort he put into it!
