Amegas

Amegas is a video game in the action genre developed by reLINE Software and published by Digitek Inc. originally released in 1987. It is currently playable on Amiga.

Amegas is a variant of Breakout that tweaks and extends the gameplay mechanics of the established Arkanoid canon.

The basic scheme is still to control a bat that slides back and forth at the bottom of the screen. Stacks of colored bricks are arranged at the top. The objective is to bounce a ball to hit the bricks and make them disappear. Some bricks require several hits to destroy them, which is indicated visually by dots appearing on the face. Some special bricks are distinguished from others by unique icons, for example, one with a 'skull' will cause you to lose your life if hit by the ball, or one with an 'x' mark will cause new bricks to appear and spread out.

Occasionally, bricks will result in color-coded pickups that will collapse and can be caught, resulting in a special power-up feature. A unique facet of the gameplay presented here is that 'power-ups' are not automatically activated, but are reserved: the player can use the last power-up collected by pressing the right mouse button, and this remains true even if a ball is lost.

It is possible that we have multiple downloads available when different versions exist.
