ScummVM: keep making improvements

ScummVM

I already talked about him ScummVM project in this same blog, now is the turn to comment on some news that are coming. This is a project whose objective is for you to be able to resurrect a multitude of classic video games and spend hours of fun on Linux.

You will surely remember some video games created with Macromedia DirectorWell, now ScummVM has incorporated into this platform the initial support to keep these titles alive. In addition, it is completely free and open source, having a large number of compatible titles, from adventure games and platforms, role-playing, etc. Of course, you will need to have these video games to be able to run them, since they are not included.

Improvements are being made to improve fluency and for the user experience as well. With the latest update, which the development team has been working on for the past 5 years, support has been announced for titles based on Macromedia Director 2, such as Spaceship Warlock. Even games based on Macromedia Director 3 could work with L-ZONE. And they continue with the improvements for Director 3 and Director 4, giving access to titles such as Journeyman Project, Meet MediaBand, Chop Suey, etc.

Macromedia Director was a multimedia development software to create executable programs rich in multimedia content, such as some classic video games of that time. Since it became part of Adobe, the project would be renamed to Adobe Director from 2008. In 2013 the latest version would be released, and in 2017 the decision would be made to abandon development.

They are also looking for help to improve your Wiki with what's new in these ScummVM Director-based titles. Undoubtedly a truly amazing job by all the collaborators involved and that will delight all those lovers of challenge or classic titles, so that you can act when nostalgia invades you ...
