Great it works! I was calling zeta using a long path from the git folder to the build one, 'cd'ing to the build folder (where I dropped zzt.exe) and it runs. Thanks!

Hi asie. I am trying to run zeta on linux but I can not get it to run. First I could not get it to compile and had to mod the makefile, I don't really think this is the problem though. On first compile I got: gcc: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-std=gnu18’; did you mean ‘-std=gnu11’? so I ...

Holy crap I loved that game! It suffered from overspeed on better processors pretty bad and didn't play nice with moslow IIRC. See also the SDL port of Sopwith, which is very good, but alas has not been updated in years.

Not sure how I missed this, but that is insane.

It would be nice to have this running recorded in some way. What does it mean "implement scrolling"? Like between boards?

Fun fact, or not, from me being Commodore adjacent, but one half of that duo, Zombie Nation, was sued by David Whitaker for ripping off his tune from a C64 game. Kernkraft is probably the most popular song of ZNs career, getting regular play in sports stadiums. Slight bit of irony that the original ...

one minute you were doing a choose your own adventure with cats and the next its all fapping and overdosed hookers? lol, it was based on a story I wrote back when I thought I was the second coming of William S Burroughs and William Gibson. Cat game was originally going to be a spy game of some sort...

Yeah, repairs are in progress. PHP's original MySQL library finally transitioned from deprecated to removed, which means a bunch of site code needs to be updated. I hate the mobile view of newer phpbb Is it a functional or aesthetic issue? If it's the latter, I'm open to installing a theme or two. ...
