Hello.
Anyone working on something like this?
I'd like to record to my dingoo some sounds, sample from other gear, trim them, merge them, etc...
44,1 kH, 16 bit or higher.
thank you.

A good source for homebrew conversion projects is the Ludum Dare competitions. For example, look through the top entries for the LD48 compo:

Most of them are using the SDL library.

None of the source code links works.
Besides, aren't LD games usually made with game maker software or flash? Thus not portable.

I think it was open to any platform. Here was a GBA entry:

Yeah, too bad most of the links are broken... I guess if someone really wanted to port one of these, they could track down the author and work something out.

What I mean is one does not simply code a c/c++ game in one weekend. So these are a rarity.

Not sure if this is the right place, but how about a port of Jazz Jackrabbit 2?

That's where you've got me :( Any ideas on another method of emulating it?

What do you think about this bloody game? ;D

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpndojWMhVg" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpndojWMhVg</a>

And we have source here:
http://www.redrogue.net/

It is free, and open source.

It can't be ported to OpenDingux:
"Red Rogue is a platformer-roguelike written in Flex and compiled with FlashDevelop."

That's not supported.

Ah :(. Didn't spend time to research in which language it was written. Sorry, my bad. I was in to game play, I really liked it and it just slipped out of my mind... I was excited by 'Open Source' and 'Free'...

I am maybe boring but I like to dig around looking for games :). Maaaybe one of them could be portable.

What about this one: http://www.knightsgame.org.uk/

Knights is a multiplayer game involving several knights who must run around a dungeon and complete various quests.
It was first time ported to Amiga. Game play is made something like Spy vs Spy on C64 where you lay traps for other player and try to escape the dungeon full of other death traps and zombies... Even your corps can return as one :).
It supports single play and separated server (for GCW users or GCW-to-Dingoo users maybe?).

Pros:
Graphics are resizable.
Author is still active(last post on 31. Dec. 2012) and easily reachable (through forum, mail or blog) and could help with porting or even make one himself.
Source available and written in C++ following GNU GPL licence.
Needed just few buttons for actions and movement

Cons:
Not sure how would it look on 320x240. Didn't have the time to try to build one. Originally it was made for Amiga, so resolution doesn't have to be a problem.
Not sure if the server is needed to play single play and if it is, how to make it work with Dingoo or GCW. Is it even possible?
It is a hot seat game from the beginning, how is it playable with only half the screen used(looking from the pictures)?
Control panel for starting the game is made for OS with GUI in mind. Is it portable to Open Dingux?

It looks like it's C/C++ with only SDL, so it should be possible.

What's the game resolution? I guess it has a lot of text, maybe the port is possible but a resize to 320x240 makes it unplayable without extra modifications (like using a bigger font).

Have no idea about resolution, I assume it was CGA (it was a late 80s game I think), the xu4 version supports the orginal graphics and a VGA upgrade so it might actually be a cool candidate for porting.

I never actually played it on the PC, I had it on the Master System which was a near identical port. There is a lot of text(there are a lot of NPCs) but it isn't really a text heavy RPG in the sense that each character doesn't have lots of boring lines, conversations are quite quick and replies are one line.

Although it does work perfectly under Master System emulation I know a lot of people here like playing PC ports and it would be a totally legit way to play the game.
