Stone Raider II

Post by admin »

Hi all,

I am the original author of Stone Raider II. I am now making this game available to Dragon enthusiasts under a friendly BSD-style license. Let this be my little contribution to keeping the Dragon community alive and making those old titles legally available. The game is available from the Dragon Archive download section (currently without the licensing statement) or from my own Stone Raider II page. Have fun!

Hello Rolf,

Thanks very much for the gift ! And I think I might have played that one when it was released.

The only thing that really bothers me now is the lack of joystick emulation from the keyboard with the available Dragon emulators (unless I've missed something important). Because of this, I'm stuck with most arcade games and can only enjoy adventure games now...


Best regards,
Lionel

Lionel,

I have been playing Stone Raider II using the xroar emulator. It supports joystick emulation. The xrank readme file contains the details of enabling this. Just press Ctrl+J to enable joystick emulation, and then use the arrow keys and left Alt.

Yes you're right ! I had completely missed that out. Thanks very much for such a most useful reminder, Rolf. There's a small number of games I might be able to enjoy again now, thanks to you...


Kind regards,
