Kuklomenos

Kuklomenos 0.4.5 r2 - ArcaOS / OS/2 Port ====================================== DESCRIPTION ----------- Kuklomenos is an abstract arcade shooter. Defend triangular Nodes from encroaching Blobs of Evil using three colours of shot and Capture Pods. Destroy four of six Nodes before Evil extracts their power - the only way. This is the ArcaOS / OS/2 port, built with GCC 9.2 (kLIBC) and SDL2. PORT STATUS ----------- Windowed mode : Working Fullscreen mode : Not supported Sound : Working (requires SDL2_mixer with OGG support) Keyboard : Working High scores : Local ratings only (no network upload) REQUIREMENTS ------------ ArcaOS 5.x, or OS/2 Warp 4.x with the kLIBC runtime. The following DLLs must be on the LIBPATH or in the game directory: SDL2200.DLL SDL2 base library SDL2M200.DLL SDL2_mixer (sound / OGG playback) Install via the ArcaOS package manager: yum install SDL2 SDL2_mixer INSTALLATION ------------ 1. Extract the archive to any directory, e.g.: C:\Games\Kuklomenos\ 2. Confirm the directory contains: kuklomenos.exe fonts\10x20.fnt (required for display) fonts\7x13.fnt (required for display) sounds\*.ogg (required for sound) 3. Ensure the SDL2 DLLs listed above are on the LIBPATH. If they are not installed system-wide, copy them into the game directory. RUNNING ------- The game must be started from its own directory so it can locate fonts\ and sounds\. Use a CMD script or change directory first: cd C:\Games\Kuklomenos kuklomenos.exe To launch from the Workplace Shell, create a program object and set the working directory to the game folder. Command-line options: kuklomenos.exe --help Common options: -W <n> Window width (default: 1024) -H <n> Window height (default: 768) -b <n> Colour depth in bpp -f <n> Target frames per second (default: 30) -r <n> Starting rating --noantialias Disable anti-aliasing --nosound Disable sound CONFIGURATION ------------- Permanent settings are saved to kuklomenosrc.txt in the game directory, or to ~/.kuklomenosrc if the HOME environment variable is set. Press Escape during play to open the in-game menu where graphics, sound, and key bindings can be configured. To reset to defaults, delete kuklomenosrc.txt and restart the game.
