Ocean Software France will continue to work with Amiga and Ocean Software UK to bring our amazing titles forward to new devices and new audiences said Marc Djan, President Ocean Software France. “Working with Amiga was fast and easy and very quickly they were able to get products to market.

Amiga Anywhere developers can also take advantage of new additions in AA2 that support and expand upon Amiga Anywhere to support the new BlackBerry 10 platform.
The first Amiga computer shipped in 1985 and was an immediate hit with game developers and publishers. Many of today’s best known game publishers made their start on the Amiga. The high quality production of games from the likes of Team 17, Ocean, EA, Factor 5, Lucas Arts, Bitmap Brothers and Cinemaware, to name just a few, coupled with the state-of-the-art hardware made an unbeatable combination. Today Amiga, Inc. is working with these publishers to make many of these amazing games available to play once again.
