Any chance for a Linux port?

Hi,<br>just found this project, and I think it's great - KQ1VGA sure looks like a remake from its original makers would look.<br><br>Unfortunately I can't get it to run on Linux - any chance for a port? Just think of the possibilities of KQ1VGA coming with the OS. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=

Have you tried it with wine?

Does it work at all with wine? I know KQVGA wasn't programmed from scratch - it uses some sort of adventure game building engine. If the engine was ported to Linux then all games made with the engine would work as well, would they not? <p></p><i></i>

Yep, we made the game with AGS (Adventure game studio). So I'm not sure if the games are portable to other Operating systems. I guess it wouldn't hurt to ask at the AGS forums though:<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="

No Ags only works in windows and dos. You could probably find a dos emu to run the dos ver. <p>The Quest for my Raincoat Starring DickBoy available now!!!

I'd like to see a port to the Mac. Would you guys consider using the Coldstone Game Engine for future games? It opens the door for both Mac and Windows games..<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="

I wouldn't count on them using the Coldstone engine, they seem to like AGS a lot. And $50 is a lot to pay for a game engine... sort of, whereas AGS is free. Coldstone does look pretty cool, though. <p></p><i></i>
