EgoTrip released a new game called Lab Escape. It is a mini adventure, in which you have to escape an labor which exploded and have to avoid several enemies and collect money. It feature colourful graphics and nice music, so be sure to download it from the CPCWiki forums or at the end of the news.

From the technical point of view, this game is the first game, which was created with the AGD – the Arcade Game Creator – which can be used to create games for the CPC (and also for the Spectrum).

Jonathan Cauldwell informed me (thanks!), that he is currently porting his Arcade Game Designer to the Amstrad CPC. With the AGD you can design your own small arcade games. It features an own simplistic language, a sprite editor, a screen editor, etc. It will also be possible to port games between the different platforms, so porting back Spectrum games to the CPC Zwinkerndes Smiley? If you want to get more information about the AGD then have a look at the AGD forums.

Here are some preview screenshots:
