Phew, it's done. 😃 After a year of hard work, my first Amiga game, KABOOMANIA - a classic retro bomber game with a brand-new soundtrack by Chris Huelsbeck - was released today for nearly every platform: kaboomania.com/outnow 🎉🎉
KABOOMANIA offers fast-paced pixel art fun for up to four players. Whether you want to tackle one of the thousand levels solo - or blow up your best (yet) friends with dynamite sticks in the arena - this brand-new game for all AGA, OCS, and CD32 systems has something for everyone. And if you’re still unsure, why not put your skills to the test in the free demo? 🧨
KABOOMANIA is available as a digital download and as a high-quality Amiga boxed edition. And as the icing on the cake, you can even purchase the fantastic soundtrack by Maestro Huelsbeck - on CD and as a digital download. By the way, this is Chris's first Amiga game with its own soundtrack in over 30 years!
So what's next? Of course, the next game for Amiga & Co.: split-screen fun with OPERATION BACKSTAB. 🕵️ By the way, it's one of the few games that will support multiplayer via a serial link cable. It would be great if you could also contribute to the Kickstarter campaign, which will launch at the end of the year, to make this projec happen: kickstarter.com/projects/fan…
Until then, I hope you have lots of fun with KABOOMANIA. Let’s blow it up! 💣💥
All the best,
Axel

The time has finally come! I’m thrilled to announce my next game for your Amiga (and modern systems): OPERATION BACKSTAB 😀
Two spies. One mission. Only one will make it out alive.
Berlin, the Cold War, the ’80s. Somewhere in a labyrinthine building, they lie - the top-secret documents! Two intelligence agencies want them, but only one can triumph. An agent from the East, an agent from the West, the same mission: Find the papers and get out. Whatever the cost!
With charming low-res pixel graphics, you’ll comb through a labyrinth of rooms, open cabinets, desks, and dressers - and ideally leave your opponent a little surprise along the way. Doors and furniture can be rigged with a whole arsenal of nasty traps. After all, nothing is more satisfying than watching your opponent walk right into your own bomb. But be careful: If you don’t remember where you placed your “surprises,” you’ll blow up faster than you’d like.
And what if the two agents happen to meet in the same room? Then it’s time for the submachine guns to do the talking!
Features:
- A fresh take on a classic gameplay concept
- Split-screen duel for two players - schadenfreude guaranteed, friendships optional
- Solo mode against the AI - a cunning computer agent with increasing difficulty
- An infinite number of procedurally generated levels - no two missions are alike
- Traps, tricks, and deceit - the one who plans smartly wins
- Local high score list - prove you’re the better agent
- Brand-new soundtrack by music legend Chris Huelsbeck - guaranteed retro sound at its finest!
Expected to be released in Q1 of next year. A Kickstarter campaign featuring a premium boxed edition is planned for later this year: kickstarter.com/.../fancyf..…

Since it was the most requested feature: The KABOOMANIA demo was released today for OCS systems (Amiga 500, 500 Plus, 600, and more)! 🙂

But first of all - do you have an Itch.io account? If so, it would be great if you could vote for KABOOMANIA as part of the AmiGameJam event: itch.io/jam/amigamejam/rate/…
The Amiga 500 version is essentially the same as the AGA version, just with fewer colors. All you need is an A500 with 1MB of RAM to go on an explosive monster hunt. So let's get started: fancyfactory.itch.io/kabooma…

That's how beta testing was done in the 90s! 😉 The South West Amiga Group - southwestamiga.org.uk/ - tested my new game KABOOMANIA in multiplayer mode at a top-secret 🤫 event. And they obviously had a lot of fun doing it! Minor bugs were found and new suggestions were made. I can only say a thousand thanks for that! Just a small taste of what future Amiga multiplayer sessions will look like. 😄
What are you waiting for? The KABOOMANIA demo was released yesterday! Time to get out the sticks of dynamite and have a match ready. Have fun 🧨💥: fancyfactory.itch.io/kabooma…

Have you ever been trapped in a video game? No? Then go and find out for yourself! The KABOOMANIA demo is out now! 🥳
Blast your way through the first 10 levels of the single-player campaign and let me know what you think!🙂
The Kaboomania demo has been released for the Amiga 1200/4000, PC, Mac, and Linux. Here are the links:
Amiga 1200: fancyfactory.itch.io/kabooma…
Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4…
Have fun - and happy bombing! 💥 And don't forget - there will be a Kickstarter campaign soon to (hopefully) get the project over the finish line: kickstarter.com/projects/fan…
All the best,
Axel
