Goodbye, libcoro, goodbye
Our Tinsel team finally got rid of unportable libcoro in the favor or method described by Simon Tatham here. This means that soon, very soon Tinsel engine may appear in the SVN trunk.
I do not have an end game screenshot handy, but I suppose that you will be able to produce it by yourself pretty soon.
So, yet another important part of adventure gaming history will get a second life soon. Read More...
