Tomato Amiga ported over to PC on a RetroBat Build

The Amiga Build, simply known as “Tomato” has dropped a couple of times over the past few years, the author, Tomáš , reached out to let us know that there is now a PC Version built on the awesome RetroBat.

FROM THE AUTHOR
It’s my selection, but it’s also general. CD32 contains CD audio tracks, there are only 50 games, but the others are more or less ports of floppy games and it wouldn’t make sense to have them all there. CDTV isn’t on there, I’m not a big fan of it, the few exclusive games aren’t very good. There are the latest Amiga games, but also a few for the C64 and ZX Spectrum. You can replace those demos with full versions if you buy them, like Roguecraft, Devil’s Temple, etc. Support creators of new free games on itch.io. I’ve made a boxart of all the games with reflection, so if you add your own game, you’ll miss it. I can send a template for After Effects, or switch the theme to AlekfullNX for example. I’ve been working on “realistic” shaders/overlays for over a month. Lots of them, with and without effects, with and without curvature, different Amiga models and environments. Definitely try the Halloween theme, which is hot right now:) (Thanks to the creator of the original koko-aio shaders on which mine are based.) The resolution is set to 1920×1080 60Hz, if you have a monitor with a different resolution, set it in Game settings – Video mode. You will also need to set the monitor resolution and frequency specifically for Amiga, CD32, C64 and ZXSpectrum, the default is 1920×1080 50Hz. Game settings – Per system advanced configuration – Video mode. If you select an item in the Retrobat menu, you have to press the back button to save it. If you don’t set the Home button, the Select button will take its place, see below: ‘nJoy!

• Intro animation can be skipped by pressing enter or A button.
• Don’t update Retrobat, it will break some settings!*
• Before you set up the controller, you can control the menus and games with the keyboard: wiki.retrobat.org/navigation/navigation-keysIf you select an item in the Retrobat menu, you have to press the back button to save it.If you don’t set the Home button, the Select button will take its place, see below:
  Pause game: Start (Home button + B)
  Exit game: Home button + Start (Select + Start)
  Save state: Home button + X
  Load state: Home button + Y
  Virtual keyboard: L3 (sometimes Select)
  Emulation settings: Home button + A (Select + A)
  Shooting – interaction: A
  Jump B
  Autofire: Y (sometimes R2 or R1)
  Secondary action: X
  Escape: Select
  In racing games: R2: Accelerate R2: BrakeSome games like IK+, or Barbarian have to start with player 1, or 2:
  L1: F1, R1: F2

  If you are unsure of the key mapping, enter the Retroarch menu
  Home button + A (Select + A)
  Quick menu – Core Options – RetroPad mapping

  Here you can look at the assignment of the different buttons, or change them.

  For full use of the keyboard under Amiga emulation, press ScrollLock. But the Hot keys will stop working.

  Some Scumm games will show an error message that it can’t find data, press OK and just click Start in the Scumm emulator.

  For Czech players, there is a script in the roms/amiga1200 folder “revealCS.bat” that will reveal games in Czech language. (Flashback CZ, Frontier CZ, Settlers CZ, Rebel CZ,…) ‘nJoy!
