Had a bit of free time this evening so thought I'd fire-up XRoar and have a game of Dunjunz (beta 3.5). I have to say this game is a lot of fun! :D I'm playing on the new Easy mode while I familiarise myself with the game's mechanics and the level of challenge feels spot-on for novice, solo players....

Heh, not quite that bad - obviously your selection is limited until you've opened the map up a bit. The number just comes from maximum number of doors & keys - in theory it could be as bad as 1 in 20 :). Ah ok, I understand. :oops: I agree learning the maps is part of the gameplay and how you ultim...

Crumbs, in the original you only had a 1 in 20 chance of having the right key. That's hardcore. :D The only reason I brought it up was until you've learned the level layout there's a lot of trial and error involved and often I was `got' by a monster while trying doors.

It's nice to be involved with such a great retro community.

It was great having the opportunity to meet people in person, talk about projects or just say `thanks' to those whose help has been invaluable.

Wow, you're rattling through it now Ciaran, putting the rest of us to shame.

I've been on a bit of a hiatus recently while I attend to more pressing matters but hopefully I'm freed-up now and looking forward to Cambridge.

Great stuff! Glad things came together for you. :D I'm not familiar with C or CMOC but maybe other users on this forum can help you further? Failing that, maybe try contacting CMOC's author? He's written a number of sample programs, including graphical card games, (which you'll find the source for o...
