v2.4.0
Attention: Since this version iGame requires the NList and NListviews to be available. So, if iGame doesn't start, please check that you have this library installed on your system.
This version introduces the usage of the igame.data files. Right now the following information is used:
- Title
- Players
- Year
More information from these files will be used in the following releases. So, do not expect that the games/demos are going to be categorised by genre in this version.
Information about igame.data files can be found in the amigaguide file that is in the archive or online at
https://github.com/MrZammler/iGame/wiki/7.-igame.data-files
