  Announcement posted by AmigaPapst on 14-Dec-2024 11:50:54 (385 reads)
Great news for Amiga fans and dedicated programmers: Thomas Richter's "Amiga ROM Kernel Reference Manual: AmigaDOS" has been shipped from the printer earlier than planned and will be sent to all customers who pre-ordered it starting Tuesday, 17 December 2024.

It covers the latest features of the AmigaDOS file system, the implementation of handlers, the productive use of the AmigaDOS shell and much more.

There are no plans to reprint the book, so if you order now you will get one of the last copies of the print edition. If you get your order in quickly, you should be able to have the book in time for Christmas.

Price: €29.90 (plus shipping)

Super Star Blast has been available on PC and consoles for a while now.

Super Star Blast is a space based game with challenging levels of increasing difficulty.
All enemies must be shot down to finish a level and go to the next one. A scanner around the player tells roughly where the enemies are located.
The player ship can fly forwards to attack and backwards to fight during the retreat against the opponents.
After clearing a level you can purchase equipment to boost the ship, as well as extra shields and firepower or more ships.
