onscripter for Debian ---------- = 1-byte Compatibility = Note that the onscripter-1byte is good to play games in English mode. But it is not guaranteed to play all the games from insani.org. If you need to play those games without any problems, please take a look at http://dev.haeleth.net/onscripter.shtml However, I tried several games and it seems that onscripter-1byte works well. = Testing The Game Engine = To test the game engine, we can either download some game data from Internet (most of them are non-free), or we create a game from scratch. Here's the way to make a hello world game: 1. Make an empty directory, let's call it /tmp/foo mkdir /tmp/foo 2. Create /tmp/foo/0.txt with the following content: ;mode800 *define game *start `Hello World!!\ `This is a test.\ end -- cut here 3. Make a symbolic link (or a copy) of a TTF font /tmp/foo/default.ttf ln -s /usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVuSansMono.ttf default.ttf 4. run onscripter-1byte onscripter-1byte -r /tmp/foo 5. You'll see the game window open and display the text we just created in 0.txt. -- Ying-Chun Liu (PaulLiu) , Fri, 30 Mar 2012 00:18:29 +0800
