OpenJazz – Jazz Jackrabbit – Released for AmigaOS 4

Hi there,

Thanks for visiting my blog. 🙂

When I visited OS4Depot today, I noticed that George Sokianos a.k.a. Walkero had released a new game port for AmigaOS 4. This time he brought over Jazz Jackrabbit to the platform! This is a fun and entertaining platform game series that was created and started by Epic Megagames back in 1994. After the first game, others in the series followed such as Jazz Jackrabbit 2 and Jazz Jackrabbit 3. You can read more about this on Wikipedia.

Walkero writes in the documentation:

This is the port of openjazz to AmigaOS 4.

OpenJazz is a free, open-source version of the classic Jazz Jackrabbit(TM)
games.

To play, you will need the files from one of the original games.

With the demise of DOS-based operating systems, it has become necessary to use
emulators to play old DOS games. Jazz Jackrabbit(TM) deserves more – and would
benefit greatly from new features.

Jazz Jackrabbit(TM) is a PC platform game. Produced by Epic Games (then Epic
MegaGames), it was first released in 1994. The fast-paced, colourful gameplay
proved popular, and the game won PC Format’s Arcade Game of the Year award.
Many people still fondly recall the shareware versions.

If you want to download the AmigaOS 4 port, please head over to OS4Depot by clicking here.

Keep in mind that you’ll need the data files. Walkero has tested the port with the data files from the games from GOG (Good Old Games). They currently have a -84% discount on the Jazz Jackrabbit Collection right now if you are interested. 🙂

Roman “Kas1e” Kargin created a port of this game series back in 2012. Since then, the OpenJazz project has received several updates. It now uses SDL2 for example. Due to problems with the bonus stage on many platforms, it has been disabled in the new OpenJazz version. This stage works fine in Kas1e’s old port.

If you are happy about George Sokianos work, you can support him on Ko-Fi. There he shares news and other interesting information about his projects. 🙂

Mistodon: #EpicMegagames' heavily-armed green lagomorph #JazzJackrabbit was drawn in #ANSIart by @Grymmjack, as he appeared in his seasonal 1995 #HolidayHare bonus disk, to appear on this date in last year's ADVENT23 #AdventCalendar.

Flashback to the early 1990s -- This is Solar Winds by Epic Megagames, nowadays known simply as "Epic". It's a 2D space action RPG thingy with a deep storyline, and lots of action. Published as shareware back in the day.
#epicmegagames #retrogaming

These groups now have more and more economic strength and influence the market. #Epic's CEO always complain against #Apple or #Microsoft or #Google, but #EpicMegaGames, is on the same side of the wall. they have only one target, revenue!

As a lot of artists and music fans
like @[email protected] or @[email protected] and many others pointed out this:

If you want to declare your #solidarity with the #bandcamp staff, who #EpicMegagames tries to stop from #unionizing – hold back and don't buy on #BandcampFriday.

As an Artist, tell your audience that you rather like to see support for the workers at Bandcamp instead of buying your music ( I'm doing that about my music with this post).

People who want to support the Bandcamp staff unionizing should follow the campaign by @[email protected] (just look up the account - important posts are pinned) and write a moderate (no curse words, no threats!) to [email protected] - this is the founder of Bandcamp and the current acting CEO (still).
