Games from Artex, Eterna, Minerva and VOTI gain software E-numbers.

MUG Show at Recursion Computer Science Fair
To be or not to be? To be, to be – obviously! Over the last few years, the Midsummer Midlands MUG Show became so excruciatingly small that for the last couple of years (2014, 2013) the visitor numbers have only just been in the twenties – and last year the decision was made that there wouldn’t be a show at all this year. At least, not a standalone show – but RISC OS users looking for an early July event to attend in the Midlands are in luck!
Show report: Wakefield 2015
Aaaaaand breathe! It has been a massive seven weeks since this year’s Wakefield Show – so if you’ve turned a rather unsightly colour as a result of holding your breath waiting for the RISCOSitory show report, it’s now time to breathe normally again and let your normal colour return!

Overlord now available from !Store
Fly me to the moon and let me play amongst the stars take the fight to them! Wakefield newby Anthony Vaughan Bartram, who developed a new game for RISC OS over the course of about nine months running up to the show, has now made that game available from !Store.
Get in early, adopt an IGEPv5
A Fistful of Dollars allows you to run The Gauntlet with an early version! Although the new computer from CJE Micro’s is not yet complete, there are apparently (and unsurprisingly) people eager to get their hands on what is expected to be the fastest ever RISC OS computer to date – so Chris Evans says that they will be launching an Early Adopter Scheme at the Wakefield Show on Saturday, 25th April, 2015.
Wakefield 2015 approaches!
Precisely five days from now, it’ll all be over! The 2015 Wakefield Show – the 20th show organised by the Wakefield RISC OS Computer Club – takes place this coming Saturday, 25th April, with the doors open to the public from 10:30am, and shut again at 16:30pm – so as a discerning RISC OS user, the place you’ll want to be on Saturday is:
RISC OS users to get some wrist action – ‘watch’ this space!
‘RISC OS Band’ coming soon! Here’s a little experiment for you. It might not work for everyone – it depends on a number of factors, such as the size of screen you use for RISC OS and the resolution you run it at, and the type of watch you wear (if you wear one at all) will also determine the outcome – but it probably will work for most users.
