Hey Emufan,

I am wondering if it is possible to port this to the Amiga? https://libregamewiki.org/Hero_of_Allacrost

It is using SDL 1.x so.......I am hoping.

Since there is no sdl library for classic Amiga's it wouldn't be possible to be directly ported.
To port the game you'd more or less have to start from scratch plus keeping in mind the Amiga's hardware limitations so the end product wouldn't be identical but could still be good if done properly.

Are you going to give it a go?

There is SDL for AGA.

Apologies to Xboxown if I sounded rude. I wasn't being derogatory I think anyone who's still developing for the Amiga deserves a much deserved pat on the back

Why porting this ? It's WIP and sdl has poor performance on Amiga.
We could start a similar project but designed for the miggies.
