Amiga Live

Imagesource: https://www.amigalive.com/

If you are among the lucky ones who still own their original Amiga - Congratulations! 🎰

Luckily, for everyone else, there are a whole range of emulators available that emulate the machine(s) in every detail to perfection. But what if you want to play one or more of the classics on the girlfriend with friends?

A valid option is FS-UAE, as it comes with online capabilities. However, the entire setup is left up to you. This can be improved. Obviously also a thought of the team behind the project tweeting as @amiga_live and so they provide: amigalive.com. 🚀

Although the project has existed since 2013, it has always passed us by without ever tapping us on the shoulder to say hello. The software is available for all 3 major operating systems, is quickly set up, and within a few minutes, you find yourself in an online battle against friends of the machine from all over the world. The community is quite active, and for most games, you can always find fellow players.

So, if you feel like playing one or more of the classics against real competition, you should take a closer look.
