Status

Currently it is possible to extract a number of resources from both the USA and JPN version of Loom TG16/PC Engine, The resources built by this tool are based on the structure of the EGA version of Loom. It is also possible to play up until the difficulty selection screen in ScummVM, however the game will play further because the scripts are partially supported, The graphics format is understood and documented.
