Home Brew Releases since 2018-2026

Posted by at 13:20:04

Future Retro Fusion Update  •  May 2026
Amiga Homebrew / PD-Style Games Since 2018
A Future Retro Fusion-built master list — not a database mirror

This is our own Future Retro Fusion working index of modern Amiga homebrew, freeware, pay-what-you-want, fan-port, preserved, jam, demo and public-domain-style releases from 2018 onward. It is built for the Amiga sphere: OCS/ECS, AGA, CD32-adjacent builds, WHDLoad-friendly community releases, itch.io projects, Aminet-style drops, Scorpion Engine games, RedPill/AMOS/Blitz projects and recovered scene releases. The goal is not to send people to a single database, but to give readers a directly useful discovery page with source/developer links beside each game.

Scope: 102 entries, 2018–2026. Commercial-only titles are flagged where they appear as scene reference points; the core list favours free, NYOP, demo, fan-port and PD-style releases.
Source style: matched to the Future Retro Fusion article palette: dark brown header, red left rail, gold year bars, parchment body, blue links.
Source approach: IndieRetroNews, itch.io developer pages/collections, GenerationAmiga, Aminet-style community release trails, EAB/project pages and direct developer sites. This version uses direct developer/source links wherever possible, rather than sending readers back to one database.
