We haven’t found any serious problems with v0.998 Windows (beta) on our own yet, but we still need you to provide more feedback. So far we only received one feedback via the comments in an older post.

Please slide down a bit, download the v0.998 beta for Windows and check if you find any bugs. Even if nothing is VISIBLE for you, this version contains changes in the playback engine for music and sound effects. We can’t go further with development with just one positive comment as it would be too unsure if there has been an oversight.

We got an offer from Frank W. to port Giana’s Return to AmigaOS 4.x, MorphOS 1.x, 2.x and probably other AmigaOS based systems which we gladly accepted. He has not started the work yet, as we try to do the last tweaks and fixes to the main core. Once this is done the above mentioned systems should be served too.

On a side note we want to remind everyone again, that this project is free of charge and done in the team’s spare time. Please understand that certain things might take a lot longer than you would expect from a professional team. The whole team is busy with real life, job, university and their own families.

Here is an beta version of Giana’s Return v0.998 for Windows: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=0PLUGOEI – You will require the full v0.997 installation, the zip only contains an updated exe.

The main and only change is that we do use modplug for playback instead of mikmod. Please report any bugs, if we don’t hear from you guys out there… we will consider this beta a v0.998 final and go on with the next minor steps.

Other ports will be updated as soon as we know that our main version (read the Windows version) is fine.

Our organizer is very busy at the moment, therefore no news since 2 weeks. Now I am on keyboard to discover some secrets on Giana’s Return. You know the ARMIN cheat? Here we have one, too :)
