hi Mark, just wanted to add that I ordered BOH as soon as my Sam flex & OS4.1 arrived and trust me it runs and plays absolutely amazing on the Sam  If you love the genre then BOH will make you very happy 
as for OS4.1 it is 'modern' Amiga i.e comfortable enough to jump right into & feel at home with but having a more modern web browser (OWB) & office APPS..I personally like AbiWord & Gnumeric from the AmiCygnix package..there's lots going on now with developing a flash script for OWB and also making U-AUE GUI for Sam flex so that we can play most classic games ....if you have any questions regarding OS4.1 then go to amigans.net & amigaworld.net for answers....

|
|
Hello!
It's about time for another update, isn't it?
Today BOH lands also on AROS and, in doing so, it also improves further!
Specifically, this update:
* makes the game run natively on AROS (requires an x86 CPU);
* optimizes and improves the field of vision calculation;
* optimizes and improves the lights casting;
* makes some explosive objects cause chain explosions;
* fixes a few minor bugs;
* adds a new mission;
* improves/extends the manuals;
* applies some other changes.
The update can be downloaded for free from the DOWNLOADS page of the official website.
The demos have been updated to reflect the changes. |

|
|
Hi all,
quite simply, let me inform you that today BOH becomes even richer thanks to the update which has just been released.
More specifically, update7:
* adds one-way passages;
* adds flying enemies;
* changes the functioning of teleports: weapons are not inhibited anymore; enemies are not scared away anymore; the activation wait is shorter; enemies are destroyed if they touch the character during teleporting;
* improves the visual feedback of hits in theme "vectors";
* increases the intensity of shot lights;
* fixes some minor glitches in the themes "C64", "default" and "vectors";
* adds the mission "skill challenge";
* retouches several missions (also making use of one-way passages);
* adds the Norwegian translation;
* re-assigns some map characters for an even more logical arrangement and, therefore, an easier development of missions;
* adds graying-out of the menu interface when another application gets the focus;
* extends/improves the manuals;
* applies some other changes/optimizations.
The update can be downloaded for free from the DOWNLOADS page of the official website.
The demos have been updated to reflect the changes.
As usual, enjoy! |

| Posted: Mon Dec 07, 2009 5:27 pm Post subject: The Christmas BOH Under The Tree |
|
|
Hello Amigans,
I've hopped into my Santa Claus costume to bring good news to who'd smile at the idea of finding a copy of BOH under the tree: in fact, from December 8 through January 6, the boxed game will come at just EUR 10.00 and the digital version at just EUR 7.50 (prices do not include VAT 20%)! Don't miss this chance to buy yourself or give as a gift a quality game for so little
But that's not all, as there's a little surprise also for current users: update8 is available right now!
It is a minor service release that:
* fixes the handling of sparks colors (did not take into account the platform pixel format, so on some machines colors could look wrong);
* fixes the disappearance of enemies when hit (happened only in the MacOS version, due to a missing assignment);
* fixes a few errors in the Spanish translation;
* makes some minor changes to the user's manual.
The update can be downloaded for free from the DOWNLOADS page of the official website.
The demos have been updated to reflect the changes.

|
|
Ho ho ho! saimo Claus is back with more gifts!
As you can see above, just a week has passed since The Christmas BOH Under The Tree offer begun. Well, given the requests received from less lucky countries, given the way sales have increased and given the fact that the publisher and I want more and more customers to be able to enjoy the full, physical product, the offer has been pushed even further: the price of the boxed version of BOH has been set to exactly that of the digital version - a shockingly low EUR 7.50*! - and who bought the digital version is given the possibility of receiving the physical package at home by paying just the postal expenses*!
I really hope this will give more people a chance to have fun with BOH 
*VAT excluded |

|
|
Dear Amigans,
to celebrate the end of the year that has seen the birth of BOH, the collection of expansions grows with a brand-new, claustrophobically oppressive theme: "underground".
The theme can be downloaded for free from the DOWNLOADS page of the official website.
 
This is also a good occasion to present the Instant Reward Initiative: graphic artists have the chance to get a free copy of BOH! For details and to take part to the initiative, please surf to the official thread on Mod DB.
Happy New Year!

I'm flattered 
Get ready for another update: you could have got it one week earlier, but then AmigaOS 4.1 Update 1 got in the way  |

Luckily I didn't have problems - just had to spent time for my usual hyper-customization
AmigaOS update aside, I'm back to keep my promise: update9 is out now!
This update:
* adds secret missions, i.e. missions that remain hidden until one or more other missions are completed;
* reworks hidden passages so that they follow the orientation of barriers and are / can be perfectly unified with them;
* re-adds trembling to fixed lights;
* improves video modes suggestions by indicating also the optimal zoom factors;
* forces recalculation of global time also when 0:00;
* retouches themes;
* improves missions "getting started" and "unequal alternatives";
* fixes mission "watch your step!" (it had been left in a test/altered state);
* fixes pits near barriers (in some cases they may have looked weird);
* adds two new missions;
* adds the latest expansions;
* updates the manuals;
* applies various other changes.
The update can be downloaded for free from the DOWNLOADS page of the official website.
The demos have been updated to reflect the changes.
Please also note that, on this occasion, all the other update packages have been reworked: besides better installers/updaters, they now include also all the expansions, so that it is no longer necessary to install the latter manually. |
