The ARBF Game of the Month (GOTHEM) is really just an excuse to focus on a great Amiga game for a month! Here are some points to be aware of before participating:
- Games will be selected by ARBF Administrators.
- If you have a favourite game you wish to be added to a GOTHEM, let us know by posting a reply to the 'Game Requests' forum topic!
- Real Amigas are preferred, but Emulators are also allowed (after all it is all about the games!). If you are using an emulator (or a real Amiga) you must not use cheats, save states, rewinds, fast forwarding, or any other advantage made available by the emulator that is not a built in feature of the game being played. Let's just all play fair.
- Submissions should be made directly to the GOTHEM forum post, or as an email (see below), as the user submitting the score. Include your score in your post. Include a screenshot (note there are image size limitations on the forum posts - so if you are not sure how to resize, send your hiscore as an email (see below)). Your submission should also include verification of any per-game rules (eg Single Player, XYZ mode), and the Amiga (or Emulator) model, and operating system. Examples could be Amiga 1200/WB3.1.4, OR Raspberry Pi/Amiberry 3.0.11.
- At the end of each month, the top 3 high-scorers, and/or the top 3 reviews, will get a special mention, and the TOP scorer will receive a special BADGE!
- Using cheats is not allowed. Cheats (in game codes, cracks, or though WHDLoad) are unfair to others that do not use them. We will not know if you have used a cheat, so this is really an honesty system here. Let's play fair!
- High scores should be captured as a screenshot or photo, and game reviews supplied in plain text and emailed to gothem@amigaretro.com after midnight on the 1st of the month and before midnight on the last day of the month to be eligible!
DISCLAIMER: Game rom files and WHDLoad installations may be used if they are a backup of a legally owned version of that game. While emulation itself is a completely legal way to play games, and emulators are a vital (often open-source and volunteer-produced) aspect of the ongoing conservation of aging games - software piracy is illegal in Australia, and some other countries. Therefore, we here at Amiga Retro Brisbane DO NOT condone piracy in any way.
