I've just recently seen a sample of what this amazing computer can do (I saw Thunder Blade, Blood Money, and Menace), and I am wondering how difficult it would be to program games like these. I know Pascal for the Mac very well, and would be willing to learn C and/or Assembly for the Amiga if necessary. I'm only 14 and can't spend $3000 on hardware only to discover that programming things like Menace is near impossible, but if it's possible for me to produce arcade-type games, the investment would be well worth it. Another thing I might need is graphics design. Does anyone know how I could learn? Thanks for your help. Bernie Freidin
