I joined the project at the end of 2003, initially to add support for Flight of the Amazon Queen. I started RE'ing the original executable, but things turned out that Ender succeed in getting the source, which made the work easier :p

I mostly concentrated on the engines part of ScummVM so far, the most interesting part of the project to me :). Getting into the x86 and/or 68k disassembly of the games, understanding how they were made is always a fun experience. It also happens that I "study" non-adventure games and rewrite stand-alone engines for them, you can have a look at the list here.

Contributions

Things I have worked on :

  • QUEEN: support for PC/Amiga versions
  • SCUMM: HE changes (AKOS, Wiz, CUP), SMUSH codecs (21/44, 37 sub 1), bugfixes
  • KYRA: initial Kyrandia 1 RE'ing
  • AGOS: DXA RE'ing
  • CINE: SoundFX PC/Amiga music support
  • TOUCHE: initial RE'ing, support for PC versions
  • IGOR: initial RE'ing

Wish List

Games I'd like to have (only originals).

  • Igor: Objective Uikokahonia English Talkie version (CD) -- this will let me perform proper engine improvement
