@3 AMOSZINE'S FIRST REVIEWS ------------------------@2 At last, there is some justice in the Amos world, good old Simon Green of good old Amiga Shopper gave good old Amoszine a good old fashion plug, and what an absolutely stonkingly good old plug it was too! @3 GET THE NEW ZINE ON THE AMOS SCENE ----------------------------------@1 You can imagine my surprise and excitement this month when what should drop on my metaphirical desk but a brand new AMOS disk mag called "AMOSZINE" It offers an entertaining mix of Amos news, reviews, competitions and tutorials. There is plenty of text to read and some interesting source code too-even I learned something from it! The creators of the mag promise that each issue will feature the source code to a "Well known" Amos game- a nice idea since there is no better way to learn than by studying other peoples work. The authors have obviously been influenced by the style and content of the more well-known Amiga disk mags such as Grapevine and Raw and this is no bad thing. The magazine software is, of course, written in Amos and the interface is very attractive and easy to use. Overall, I was impressed with the amount of work that had obviously gone into making "Amoszine". Most importantly, it seems to be supported by a lot of talented and enthusiastic Amos programmers. @2 Simon Green, Amiga Shopper. Issue 43. (Nov 94) Page 71 @1 * Note: The screen shot shown with the above review displays the NEWS article in which I gave Amiga Shopper a bit of a telling off!! Hurrah for Simon for being totally impartial/unbiased etc. @3 AMOSZINE ISSUE 1 (Amiga User International) -------------------------------------------@2 Amoszine is not only written in Amos, it is for people who program in it. So if you are not a programmer and a fan of Amos, steer clear. The magazine is sponsored by F1 Licenceware and will cost you £2.25. There is a good range articles, all Amos related (Well what else did you expect?) and....well, not much else really. One item features articles taken from different magazines of F1 Licenceware products. I was suprised to see one of mine in there for the game Fortress. @160% @3 AMOSZINE 1 (AMIGA PRO) --------------------- One of cheapest Amos mags around complete with the source code to a well know game, Polymorph. There is also an early source version of Black Dawn. Amoszine still needs to be filled out a bit more and for that it needs you the Amos user and by heck, there's a lot of you out there. So get to it.
