Amiga Archive
Even before Dreaming Methods existed, we were experimenting with writing and digital media on the Commodore Amiga from the early nineties onwards. Our work included the first ever Licenceware-distributed short story collection - Magnetic Fiction - which sold on floppy disk for £3.99 a copy.
Below is a ZIP file containing our entire Amiga archive from the 1993 onwards. The files will run with an Amiga Emulator such as Amiga Forever.
