A new version of the desktop JavaCPC is available. It's an Amstrad CPC(+) emulator written in Java by Markus Hohmann (DevilMarkus).

Keith56 has released a second book about assembly on 5 new CPU : ARM Thumb, 65816, 6809 PDP-11 and Risc-V CPUs. The first book was about many CPUs, including the Z80 of course.

If you buy the book on Amazon, he will give you a PDF version.

Airwolf is well known to be an unplayable game as it is so difficult and also bugged !

Cyril GOURET, TITAN and Alain le Guirec are working on Airwolf Reloaded which is for the moment a hacked version of the original game : no more time limite, no more collision test, no more gravity. There is also a new supberb loading screeen by TITTAN et a new music..

And they are working on an upgrade of the graphics by TITAN, I saw some beautiful screens on facebook (link lost though) and to make a game being finally playable.

By modifying ROMs, McArti0 was able to obtain news resolutions on Amstrad CPC : 256x256 and maybe 1024x512 in an emulator like sugarbox.

He also wrote another thread on CPCWiki : CPC joining to VGA monitor by 5 wire interface which gives 512x464 in mode 2, complete with schematic and pinout.

In fact, you can reconfigure the CRTC chip in an Amstrad CPC and OS to use all 65 Kb of the video RAM. Amstrad can show a maximum resolution of 1024x512 at 25Hz (or 1072x480).

Carlc27843 has written for PICO-8 an Amstrad CPC AY-3-8910 sound chip emulator using undocumented 5512Hz 8-bit mono PCM channel, to compose or convert Amstrad CPC music by Dave Rogers.

And I just tumbled on his two other creations : a remake de Nebulus and a demo about the game Cauldron on Pico-8 of course. Hit the links so you will able to see a video of the game and the demo.

Seen on CPCWiki, you can see Barjack's web site with the graphics he did, including work in progress games :

• Bubble Quest for Amstrad CPC+ by Roudoudou, e-dredon, Toto and Barjack
• Renegade Metro (without more informations)

This site is a good news, the bad one is that he should stop Amstrad CPC activities when Bubble Quest is done...

GGP has released the final trailer for Toki on Amstrad CPC, which will be released this automn 2022.

Seen on Facebook, the issue 13 of RetroMagazine World by Francesco Fiorentini is released in english and italian.
