GameDev Guide for PowerPC
Some time ago Sam Jordan - author of WarpUP and PowerASM - released a complete guide about how to write games for
PowerPC. Here you can get the archive that only contains the guide in English and German. The complete package
with examples and demos can be found in the WarpUP release 3 archive. Download

phase 5 and H&P are in talks since Saturday to come to an cooperation on supporting PPC. Together with Index
