Well the "Top-Secret Multiplayer Game" was Tank Wars Deluxe, from Graham Humphrey, who also started Annihilation before passing it on to NovaCoder and Anakirob, who decided to reprogram it in C instead of Blitz Basic, but then abandoned it. So those two games have been abandoned and buried now. :(

Halloween Nightmare is still a dream project for me and it's my goal in life to finish it. Progress is extremely slow, but the characters have a lot of thought put into them, as well as the story and locations.

Super Pumpkin Bros has been abandoned due to lack of interest from the developers. :(

Change It is a fully playable game in its current state, and could be considered a finished product I suppose. I'm not sure if development continues but it has been one of the more actively developed games over the last few years, and there are plenty of skins available, though more would be welcome.

I don't really know what's happening with the others. Basically most Amiga game development has slowed over the last few years, many projects are cancelled and a lot of people have lost motivation. It's not helped by the fact that we have no Amiga development/project forums to post on.

UtilityBase appears to be being rebuilt (but I dunno if that will fix the server virus/etc problem, nor when it will be finished).

OS4 coders have amigans.net & os4coding.net, and PortablE has its own forum. Which covers my primary interests, so I haven't looked hard for other forums, but I'd be a little surprised if they didn't exist.

BTW, amigans.net actually covers OS3 too, so those coders can (and do!) ask questions here.

@Cammy

Have you looked into GMane.org? If you send an email to the proper address, it will start a mailing list with an NNTP feed for use with the NewsCoaster newsgroup reader on the Aminet. It also has a web interface that should work with the Amiga as well.
