New on the board, just sayin hi

Firstly guys and girls I am really thankful to still have such a great community around... and still doing such amazing work for the Amiga keeping it alive!

Few words about myself. I can still remember how I started with computers in '86, and a few years later at the height of the Amiga/Atari/Archimedes wars and my heart set on an Amiga, I made the choice on specs and bought a PC doh ( regret it to this day. Anyway got an A1200 a few years later, and still have that machine in pristine condition! I don't use it much though... I get my Amiga fix via E-UAE on my macbook.

My purpose in life with my Amiga is to finish all the great adventures (text and graphic) and platform games of the era. It's a long list!! Especially since I suck at adventures:P One day I will also learn Blitz Basic, Amiga C, maaaybe assembly and hopefully get my sh*t together and submit some code to E-UAE. (Just found out about P-UAE!)

Funnily enough my coding goals are more achievable than my adventuring ones I'm a coder... always have been.

Thanks for being out there!

Denn:x

Thanks for your comments guys!

I've only been in Aussie for 2 years, so only a small part of me is Aussie! It's complicated... spent 15 years in the UK (Colchester/Essex uni, London and Camberley in Surrey.) I grew up in Greece. I'm a bit vagabondish that's why I only rely on UAE... I live out of my macbook My Amiga is safely stowed in Greece, one day when I finally settle down... we'll be reunited

Great idea to write an adventure game, awesome challenge, but it would probably suck. I wouldn't be able to finish it even if I had written it, really I'm that bad

In any case I prefer the low level systems bit.. I'd rather be unmasking interrupts than murder suspects It's the big adventure for me
