We have been supporting the [[Inherit the Earth]] game for a long while. However, Amiga versions are not yet supported by this target. We have the original source codes, and the main difference is the data bundles format. | We have been supporting the [[Inherit the Earth]] game for a long while.

=== The Immortal === | |||
Technical contacts [[User:dreammaster|dreammaster]] or [[User:Sev|sev]] | |||
Difficulty level: Hard. Good knowledge of C++ and assembly (x86 or 68K or 6502) is required. | |||
The immortal was released in 1990 by Electronic Arts. It's a mix of genres involving RPG elements with action and puzzles. | |||
The gameplay is different one variant to the other, and all variants are written in assembly, making it more difficult to support all the variants. | |||
In 2018, a GSoC student picked this task but, due to personal issues, didn't manage to complete the task. The purpose of the task is therefore to implement an engine for a variant of the game, using the original sources and the work of JoeFish as a documentation. | |||
