All the inane chatter goes in here. If you're curious about whether we will support a game, post HERE not in General Discussion :)

A combat flight simulator? That's way outside the scope of ScummVM. You may want to try DOSBox instead.

Sigh, will people even at least try to understand that this project is about point'n'click adventure games... I mean, it's right there on top of the main web page. And there is a FAQ too... it takes much less time to read that than create a new forum account and ask questions like this

sigh again :?

Definitely! Like Far Cry, it is an adventure game where you have to point and click! (and the textures are probably in 2D, too)

Sorry, but the development of our Halo engine is stalled. We are currently polishing the DOOM and SimCity 2000 engines, and work on Civ 2 & Tetris support has just begun, so Halo moved a bit further down on the list

FYI, Tetris is already finished as part of AGI engine.

Too bad you don't support SCI, I've always loved Jones in the Fast Lane far more than Sims :D

What about that Dune 2 thing you mentioned a while back on the news page? I'd play that on my mobile :D

Not completely out of the blue, as they reportedly did use ScummVM code to extract the graphics for the semi-fake screenshots. In all fairness, the Dune II engine does share many technologies (most notably in this case, graphics formats) with the Kyrandia engine. But of course that doesn't make Dune II a point-and-click adventure game.

Raziel, good way to spoil the mood of the play in this thread. Where's your sensahumor? B-sides, I named about the only game in there that actually was claimed to be supported soon :P So there.

Actually, no. There's also a few cases of "push button", "pull lever" and the occasional "talk to Valerie" moment. :D

My sense of humour is there, all the way, man, did you see my VERY, BIG WINK, WINK? :-)

Of course *I* was pulling your leg with my post
and of course they DID make some of the gfx viewable of DuneII.

;-)
