Tatung Einstein host development system for creating ZX Spectrum, C64 and Amstrad CPC games. Originally developed by Mike Webb and re-created from scratch by @breakintoprogram.co.uk. Software Creations and other North West based companies used this system to develop their titles during the mid-80s.

Stunt Car Racer on the #Amiga is an absolute timeless classic. A true rollercoaster ride. It could be the best game on the system. Here it is playing from an "original" IPF disk image on my emulator at 60Hz. What a game!

I am very pleased to release Aira Force 0.9.2
This release emulates blitter fill mode, which is used by many more demos than games it seems! It also fixes lots of gnarly Amiga timing bugs.

Added floppy disk/drive/controller emulation to my #Amiga emulator. This allows OS friendly software to run. Some more hardware features are needed to support lower-level disk access (DSKSYNC register mainly) youtu.be/Cwxz6Z6vDtc
