New revolutionary concept: AmigaOnline invents Shared Play! You can now play any solo Amiga game online!
The idea is to be able to play online all solo Amiga games in a cooperative/shared environnement.
Players all around the world may now be able to play the same solo game. For example each player could play during one life or one mission in the game, and then will be replaced by another player connected to the internet.
Many players may watch the same game session, and play when they want to!
This concept will allow any solo game to be theoretically playable online!!
Shared Play Games will be playable very soon exclusively on AmigaOnline network. Try them!

First Shared Play game (added to the Games List): Rick Dangerous (really good platformer! (with so many traps...))

I was a bit confused on what I'm supposed to do on the LOGMEIN site, what do I need to sign up for?

Hi Analog-X64!
You don't really need to 'sign-up', you simply need to click on the "power on" button, then enter a nickname. More infos about Hamachi installation in the tutorials: http://amigaonline.forumactif.net/tutor ... ll-t16.htm

To demonstrate all the incredible possibilities offered by Shared Play (which allows online solo gaming with virtually infinite number of players/watchers), AmigaOnline validates 4 new games based on this new technology (added to the Games List):

Wings Online! (incredible flying simulation like Red Baron)
Image
Another World Online! (a wonderful adventure with so much action.Great if you are looking for thrills!)
Image
Prince Of Persia Online! (everyone knows this platformer, but who did already play this jewel online?)
Image
Hybris Online! (probably the first Amiga shoot'em up before Battle Squadron!)

All these games are playable exclusively on AmigaOnline network, and later on Kaillera public servers!
Perfect to rediscover a legendary Amiga game online with some friends! :)
