Development Progress / Re: Support for DOS / FreeDOS / DosBOX (A.D 22.03.2016)

Welcome yordan!
I'm going to put sources on github soon.
Regarding 'any platform' that is possible if you're able to provide basic keyboard input, audio and console outputs to game's callbacks

First - congrats for starting that and putting so much enthusiasm and effort.
and
Second - do you plan a release for raspberrypi platform or open source version that can be compiled for any POSIX-like platform ?

Thanks

Thanks, wb Kyzrati!

All images were captured internaly by game to .xp files then converted to pngs with RexPaint
It saves me a lot of time, the only manual thing I still need to do is writing alt attribs for <img> tags.

Development Progress / Campaign menu module in paused-game state

« Last post by gumix on July 01, 2016, 06:11:57 pm »

I have just finalized in-memory game save with resume / clear UI. Also a small car icon is added to the map to indicate player's progress.

This allows me to keep interface w/o any confirmation message boxes which for me, personally, are rather irritating thing.

In this state (after exiting from gane with [Esc]) player can:
- navigate to any other module to change game options
- go back to the game (resume)
- reset saved game, to be able to start a new one with campaign tree UI

As posted previously, one of most important updates in alpha-2 is audio support.
Retro sound samples are generated using excellent tool, the SFXR.
