Which games would you like to be supported on the future?

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

Shadow of the Comet - I know someone was looking at it
Prisoner of Ice - I dont think it uses the same engine as Shadow of the Comet.
Return to Zork - its already partially supported in the MADE engine
Inca 1 & 2 - Inca 2 is partially supported however inca 1 uses a different engine
Dragonsphere - partially supported in the M4 engine
Return of the Phantom - M4
Rex Nebular - M4

Oh! How about some Dynamix adventures? (Rise of the Dragon, Heart of China, Willy Beamish) - I know jvprat was working on the dgds engine for these games.
I edited your post with some comments.

That one already is in the trunk and is completable. (MADE engine)

Inca 2 has some code in the trunk. I don't think the action sequences are playable.

Return of the Phantom
Rex Nebular
I believe dreammaster is working on that (as part of m4).

Good news! Someday hopefully I'll be able to play my entire collection of 2D point&click adventures through ScummVM.

i would like to have chance to play games from Cryo again... especially Dune (probably out of scope of ScummVM) and KGB, others i don't know at all

Dune is one of the best games ever, i was adicted to its soundtrack (adlib!) and atmosphere. KGB i only remember i started but never had chance to play it properly

Judgement Rites and 25th Anniversary use the same engine, but the main problem with these (as far as I remember from looking at them) is that the games are very hardcoded (makes reverse engineering and reimplementing them much, much more time consuming).

I think it'd be amazing to actually play A Final Unity in the resolution and colour depth as it was meant to. 640x480, I believe with 16-bit colour or something. Currently I'm settling with 640x480 in 8-bit colour on my old 486 box. Which is annoying to me because I like things to run in the best possible modes they can.

Indeed, I was stoked when DosBox finally supported 16bit :)
