# Scoundrel ports by Luxferre

This is a collection of my own ports of the [Scoundrel](http://stfj.net/art/2011/Scoundrel.pdf) roguelike card game to as many platforms as possible.

## Ports included in this repo

* [ANSI C89 port](c/scoundrel.c) - also compatible with CC65 and Z88DK (use the provided Makefile to build Scoundrel for Commodore 16/64/128/Plus-4/PET, Atari 400/800/XL/XE, ZX Spectrum, MSX and Apple II/IIe; a JRE installation on the host system is required to build Apple disk images)
* [NES port](nes/nescoundrel.c) - gamepad-oriented, considered stable but some impovements may come

## Ports NOT included in this repo for various reasons

* [(Circuit)Python port](https://codeberg.org/luxferre/t-deckard/src/branch/master/game/scoundrel.py) (as a part of the T-DeckARD suite)
* [HTML+CSS+JS port](https://ironlynx.neocities.org/scoundrel) (hosted as a single HTML file with readable source code)

## Currently planned ports

### Low-hanging fruits

* POSIX AWK
* TI-74 BASIC
* VTL-2
* Free Pascal (CLI)

### Some asset design required

* Tcl/Tk GUI
* Free Pascal + Lazarus GUI

### Ultimate goals

* CHIP-8 (standard mode)
* Sega Mega Drive (SGDK)

### Hypothetical ports

Not sure if necessary:

* POSIX sh without AWK
* Native Android

Not sure if physically possible:

* HP 12C
* Elektronika MK52/MK61
