February already!  Another GOTHEM in action - this time, another random pick, and a PD game from 1989 - Cave Runner! Have fun!

It was very 'smart' of the random picked game from AGS this month, with the Australian Open tennis event coming up.  The GOTHEM for January is 'Advantage Tennis'!  a great old tennis game! Have fun!

Wow.  Probably harder than Ghosts and Goblins (which I love by the way!).  I couldn't even get past the bouncing pumpkins!

Best was 1190.

Played on my Amiga 1200.

Full details will follow, including an article on our "project: page.

But the last update in the story is (Taken from the development chat group)...

Hello again everyone! I have the AmiExpress BBS running pretty well now on the V4SA now. The later "core" did help greatly but sadly "RoadShow" (1.13 & 1.15 tested) as "Fantastic" as it is for "most" internet application is just not the go for an AmiExpress BBS on the V4SA. Getting the balance between compatibly, stability and function has taken a bit of time.

Very pleased with the results now. Time at last to "flesh" the BBS out now that its stable! So we are now up and online! and..

I think will be the first "fulltime" Amiga BBS running on a Vampire 4SA?

Thanks' again and looking forward to your visit!
