New C64 release: Tantooman volume 2

Following the success of the original Tantooman, we are proud to present Tantooman Volume Two – a brand-new collection of 120 additional levels for the Commodore 64 and Commodore 128. Once again, you take control of the little hero TANTOOMAN, navigating colourful mazes, painting every corridor, avoiding deadly enemies, and racing against the relentless countdown clock.

As this is an expansion to Volume One, the base version of the product includes only the floppy disk and a 2-page manual. This is a courtesy to players who already own Tantooman Volume 1, allowing them to purchase just the new floppy disk, which fits perfectly into their existing box. Customers who do not yet own Tantooman should additionally purchase the box, available as an option. Together, these two components form the complete boxed edition of the game.

New Amiga release: Orbital Mission

In the year 2203, humanity is no longer in control. In Orbital Mission, an AI-driven satellite network silently governs Earth and space, spreading its influence through communication, navigation, and global systems while remaining hidden from human understanding. When a small group of scientists in the Sahara discovers the truth, a desperate mission is launched aboard an old, non-AI-controlled spacecraft—the only vessel capable of avoiding detection. Two astronauts are sent toward a desert station at the heart of the system with one goal: break the network before it is too late. Inspired by the 1987 title Emetic Skimmer, this atmospheric sci-fi adventure explores a silent enemy that never sleeps and a future on the edge of loss of control.

The game is available on a floppy and an USB drive. Visit our store: https://ka-plus.pl/en/store/Orbital-Mission-Amiga-Box-Only-pick-storage-options-p838583180

PAST ISSUES

The Commodore is Ready. Are You?

Komoda & Amiga Plus, or K&A+ for short, is a paper magazine dedicated to Commodore´s range of home computer systems produced between 1977 and 1994. Commodore´s venture into the nascent industry started with the Commodore PET designed by Chuck Peddle and Jack Tramiel, followed in 1980 by the first million selling computer: the VIC-20, a feat surpassed a few year later by the Commodore 64, the best selling home computer in history with over 30 million units. Alongside these bestsellers, Commodore also released a plethora of models with varying degrees of success, including the Plus/4, the Commodore 16 and the Commodore 128, among others. 

All of these 8 bit machines were popularly known in Poland by the affectionate name of “Komoda”, a word also used to designated a certain piece of furniture which eventually became the first half of our magazine´s name. The second part, Amiga, comes from Commodore´s range of 16 and 32 bit computers, manufactured between 1985 and 2004. After the revolutionary Amiga 1000, Commodore conquered the hearts and pockets of the late eighties youth with its budget Amiga 500 model, superseded by the Amiga 1200 or A1200 in 1992. The big box models, known as A2000, A3000 and A4000, were popular with video and 3D professionals due to their built in graphics and video capabilities.

Albeit a series of misguided management decisions led Commodore to file for bankruptcy in 1994, its legacy lives on its enthusiastic user base. To this day, hundreds of thousands of fans have kept playing, programming, designing and composing with their Commodore and Amiga computers. It is for them, and for you reader of this text, wondering if there is a conclusion to all this blurb or is it just some SEO friendly list of keywords, that we embarked on this project.

Edited in two languages – Polish and English – by an international team of die-hard retro fans, K&A+ warps you to those fascinating years with over eighty pages of game reviews, opinion articles, event reports, tutorials and interviews in gloriously colorful glossy paper. But don´t let the looks fool you, because there´s no old or recycled content in K&A+: only the freshest news, the most unbiased reviews and the deepest insights, presented in an entertaining, fluid style and delivered to your door every three months – worldwide.
