Pocket SCUMM 05 Feb, 2002 / Comments: 5

By Spaff


An old friend of mine emailed me out of the blue to point out that I hadn't mentioned the version of ScummVM for pocket PC's. You can now play all your favourite games while commuting or pretending to test pocket PC games at work. I myself would never ever pretend to test a game while playing an entiretly different one... honest guv.

Update: In the tradition of ScummVM threads I'll update to point out that there is also a Macintosh version of ScummVM under development for MacOS X. Apparently there is a second Mac port underway by the author of SCUMM Explorer, but it doesn't have a website. - Jake

    I think that the whole dreamcast thing looks most exciting. If I had a dreamcast... maybe a ps1 port?

    What we need now is a windows run-time exe for scumm games so I can play my old games with sound and music :)

    If that's possible, that is.

    That's what ScummVM is! Just find the Windows port or compile your own if you're able.

    Just compile ScummVM under windows and you'll have a "windows run-time exe for scumm games".

    Simple as that. :D

    This is really cool. If I had a PocketPC, I'd be all over this.
