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!

I hope to launch the next Gothem this weekend.

Trying hard to get to this! Please don't close it before end of day!  ;)

Especially given its new "successor" that is coming - I was in the Kickstarter!

ARBBS - Amiga Retro BBS / Vampirella of Drakulon
« Last post by intangybles on April 17, 2025, 02:33:25 pm »

They say the dead tell no tales, but I am not so easily silenced.

I was born on Drakulon, a world circling twin suns, where my people lived off rivers of blood that flowed like wine. We were not undead. We were not monsters. Blood was our sustenance, our nature - until the twin suns grew cruel, drying the lifeblood of our world and turning paradise into a graveyard. I was one of the last. And when a ship from Earth crashed on our dying soil, I saw a chance - not just to survive, but to find purpose beyond hunger.

Earth... such a strange, savage place. You have no idea how much blood surrounds you - how freely it's spilled, how little it's respected. Your monsters walk in daylight, wearing human faces. I arrived among you like an angel of death in red silk, and I saw: you needed someone like me far more than you knew.

My first days here were... messy. Confusion, fear, temptation. I was hunted, mistrusted, but never helpless. When the Cult of Chaos raised its head - summoning things from beyond the veil, ancient horrors craving flesh and madness - I knew I couldn't just blend in. I had to stand against them.

It was in these first battles that I discovered what I was capable of. Not just strength and speed, not just the hypnotic pull of my eyes or the sting of my fangs - but conviction. Justice. Rage.

I am not your classic vampire, chained to coffins and superstition. I walk in sunlight. I make my own rules. But I carry the blood of a dying race and the fire of a warrior who's lost too much to let evil win.

They call me Vampirella. Say it like a warning. Say it like a prayer.

Game of the Month for April 2025: Project X Special Edition 1993

Picked from a random selection from the fantastic Amiga Game Selector!

It`s the same old story, someone else`s mistake has become your problem.... The fools, the mad fools.. the scientists did it for fun, they must have done, no one wanted massive mutated insect-like droids, the by-products of early bio-mechanical experiments with powerful x-rays, not me and you. Dumped on the planet Ryxx and presumably left to degenerate, stagnate and fade out - the sickening mutations not only survived but thrived, their intelligence circuits warped by the past and left seeking revenge. Fears of a possible all-out attack has forced the Federation into action! Your mission is simple: fly to Ryxx, into the heart of the station the evil has made it`s lair and blow the whole thing sky high.

  • Amiga Hardware: OCS
  • Relase Year: 1993
