Recent commentsTuxnes development is continuing.
Just last week Jason Dorje Short and Mike Mestnik(me) where able to complete SDL and *GGI support. There is even talk of a windows port, thought DirectX support is possible it's not planned. There is even support for ppc in CVS. The current release has some problem with GameGene support was/is broken in 0.75 but is fixed in the 0.75 CVS branch and there was a problem using 2 joysticks.
Work is continuing and it would be nice if some one would come up with a “Bloody Flipper” mouse animation for X.
* We also need a GGI expert to tell me why the screen is all black :(
