Source Code Released

Well, it finally happened. The source code to Megazeux has finally been made public. You can grab it here.
Note here. I do not consider modified versions of Megazeux new games, so I will not add a new section for each game, but rather one for the true clones.

Electronic Artists

I recently got a request to announce some things. Here is a slightly cut down version of the e-mail:

Our first game Amnesia is a full length Rpg. You choose your class. Good graphics and your stats will mean life or death in battle. And you can train to make a better char. The demo will be realsed soon. But here's my Rpg Engine that will be used in this game. As soon as I figure out how to make Screen shots of my game I will send them in. Our goal you ask? its to beat masterclan and autumn dreams and nothings gonna stop us.

We have no webpage yet but we will soon.

In amnesia You travel through forests caves oceans and other stuff and a attack could happen random! So watch out, Amnesia has a Inventory system and has cures swords and shields. Plus other items that will help you in the game. Amnesia Has awesome graphics and good spells.

Thanks Bongo

Thanks Bongo, for explaining that he was confused about playing xBox, and had played another GCS which he 'wasn't too keen on'

January 10, 1997 - Tip of the Day: I'll be redesigning the page soon.

Megazeux Message Board

That Megazeux Message Board that MD (Connor) runs is now at http://mdzmzx.dyn.ml.org. Have fun.

Correction

Sorry, the magazine with the interview mentioned last update was ASCII Haven, not MZX Gamer. My apologies to MZX Gamer.

Update soon

I'll be redoing the look of the page soon. Mainly so I can update easier.

December 30, 1997 - Tip of the Day: No tip. Sorry.

Correction

I got the wrong URL when I last updated. That linked to BooshKies demo. I'm not perfect (ha!) so mistakes happen. Also, I very rarely download everything that I update when I put it up. I just don't have the time. While I'm on the subject of corrections, I read in MZX Gamer, I believe, that in the interview with Bongo, he said he'd played xBox and didn't like it. Thats odd, since I haven't sent xBox to anyone. Well, just keep that in mind, if anyone says anything about xBox that hasn't come from me, don't totally believe it.
