`09.May.2024`	Developer log: Amiga Isometric #4 Nivrig Games is working on porting an isometric arcade adventure game to the Amiga and is publishing developer diaries (amiga-news.de reported).

As the author explains, adding controller-based movements was easy, but adding other objects proved to be something of a grab bag. As this was ultimately successful, the first interactions could now be tested (YouTube video). (dr) [News message: 09.
