  11. WOW! I can't believe it! It's not quite been a week and there's been 775 downloads of Issue 1 of my diskmag "Adventures In Retro" from Aminet - I've not got stats for this enabled on the website so not sure how many have downloaded from there.

    A massive thank you from all that have downloaded, read, and enjoyed my ramblings, I will be back with more soon.

    A huge thank you to all my supporters and contributors too - you know who you are 👍

  12. Diskmag: "Adventures In Retro" #1

    Duncon Woodward has created "Adventures in Retro", a disk magazine previously exclusive to the Amiga, but whose content covers the entire retro computing scene. In addition to various Amiga-related articles, the premiere issue also features reviews of Prince of Persia on various 8-bit platforms, as well as retrospectives on the C16/Plus 4 and the last generation of the Amstrad CPC.

  25. very much enjoying this so far. pointed me to a few collectives, collections, and archives I wasn't aware of!

    i think there's an interesting sidestream to electronic literature in the form of "LitPacks" or diskmags that function as amateur publishing magazines. Diskmags, I would argue, are a sort of hypertext in themselves.

  26. @Philsan Oh my, I had the (german) C64 version of the game back in the day and played it a lot - entertaining game. IIRC the version I played was included in one issue of the #MagicDisk64 #Diskmag. This Atari conversion looks very great - hopefully someone ports that one back to the Commodore 64

  27. Nobody is stopping this train! Here we go again, with our great NTSC & PAL #C64 #diskmag Scene World #34! either download the diskmag disk image for use in your emulator, or your real machine - also works in friendly browsers online if you like! sceneworld.org ---> Download Scene World #34 --> Run online NOW. (VICE.JS is quite a resource hook, if you run into a sound buffer overflow error, try a different browser!)

  28. Just posted #defunct issue 5 for #windows a few hours after May ended. Needed to add some code to handle bitmaps sensibly. The #diskmag is available for both the #rainbow and #windows!

  29. defunct issue 5, my #diskmag for the #rainbow, is out now! I've included a review of a local whiskey, why I want a PowerPC motherboard, a pretty picture, and a whole lot more nonsense!

    Windows version should be coming tonight or tomorrow!

    https://printstar.itch.io/defunct
  30. The work took about ten days longer than I had hoped, but issue 3 of defunct, the #diskmag for your #rainbow 100 (and Windows...) is out!

    What do we have this month? Making sound on a #rainbow, a review of delicious fermented grapes, and a little walk through the toxic world of #retrocomputers!

  31. Browsing through the latest edition of Vandalism News for #C64 on a little green phosphor CRT on my trusty C128 DCR really gives me strong holiday vibes. Copied all seven sides to diskettes, enjoying a cold drink on the table next to me and now please excuse me ... 📖

  32. Ah, it's this time of the quarter again: The last real #DiskMag #DigitalTalk64 needs input!

  33. Just released the Windows version of defunct issue 2, the #diskmag primarily for your #rainbow.

    Had to upload a bug-fixed Rainbow version also! No big deal!

    https://printstar.itch.io/defunct
  34. Success! I acquired an old (2012) laptop from my mom, spent 2 hours repairing the AC cable, another 2 hours installing Arch Linux. The old CD drive managed to read at least one of the disks with no errors at all!

    #RetroComputing #ABCD #DiskMag

  35. defunct issue 2, the #diskmag for your #rainbow computer, is now available! Nerdy stuff, a meatloaf recipe, and dreaming in Fortran - all in one diskmag! Win32 version coming in the next day or so!

    https://printstar.itch.io/defunct
  36. Since my January issue of my #diskmag was such a rousing success, I've started on the February issue!
  37. Just posted a Windows version of my #diskmag using most of the #rainbow video memory emulation code that I had written for a game. I added support for the Rainbow's "blink" character attribute, and I'm pretty happy with it!

    https://printstar.itch.io/defunct
  38. defunct issue 1 for January 2024 is out for your #rainbow (and nothing else) if you'd like to enjoy an old-skool #diskmag!
