Guinea Pig Adventure I


3d Guinea Pig

Background

I started working on this game as a little experiment in OpenGL programming. I have a 3dfx Banshee card, and with the advent of XFree86 4.0 I can do fancy 3d graphics.

About Guinea Pig Adventure

The game will be somewhat reminiscent of Final Fantasy VII by Square Soft once completed. This means it's a First Person RPG where you fight enemies but there is also a significant story.

How to Play

Use the arrow keys to move. 'L' turns off lighting. I,J,K,M move the camera around. That's about it so far.

Downloading the Game

NOTE! For now at least the game is Linux only. I might try to compile up a Widnows version at some point.

For best performance you NEED a 3d accelerated card with Linux support. You can use Mesa in software more but you'll get maybe 1fps if you are lucky.

You should be running XFree86 4.0 or higher, for the OpenGL libraries. You can also use Mesa.

You need version 1.2 of the SDL Library.
