Wonderful! Hopefully they'll soon tweak the installer so that it "just works" on MorphOS without the need of any fancy foot work.

I was a little worried about one company picking up all these titles, but if they are doing a good job of it, go for it.

Wishlist:

1, port your stuff to MorphOS and AROS. It should be fairly simple with 68k code.
2, buy Ibrowse and develop it
3, buy some classic games like Cannon Fodder and port it to NG

You can do it! :)

we have a modern browser for NG Amigas,   Classic hardware just not powerful enough to run a modern browser

Both of those are exactly what I wanted to say.

It is a little worrying, but they seem to be taking care of what they buy and it's better than the products just disappearing as they might otherwise.

Now, work on that 68k browser issue... IMHO, that's the biggest gap in functionality that we have.
