At last, the game of Shadowgate is winnable in the ScummVM platform!<\/p>\n

There is a screenshot of the final battle with the wizard at the end (spoiler warning<\/b>).<\/p>\n

It took somewhat longer than expected, and it\u2019s in no way as complete as I would like it to be (just look how the interface is broken), but still I\u2019m very proud of that.<\/p>\n

To play the game, you can clone and compile my github fork<\/a>, get the game <\/a>files, and unpack them using some HSV extracting tool. If anyone is interested, I have a bunch of savefiles to various rooms (more on that later).<\/p>\n

Now, what\u2019s next? After talking with my mentor, we have settled in the following order of prioirities to spend the rest of the time:<\/p>\n

Fixing the GUI > Adding support for other Macventure games > Add sound > Add Apple II graphics.<\/p>\n

I will probably be dancing around the first two, since they are not mutually exclusive and when I get frustrated with one I can work on the other.<\/p>\n

Other than that, I try to keep my Trello<\/a> updated, and the spirits up. Again, I am sorry for falling so behind on schedule, I am suffering the consequences of not doing things properly on the first try, during the June burndown inferno.<\/p>\n
