Greetings mr Bisdorf,

I am a part of team called PortMaster, which aims to to bring modern games to Linux handhelds. Unfathomable runs quite well on these devices and I had quite a lot fun, even though the game kicks my butt all the time :). 

I would like to ask if you would consider allowing us to include the game on our PortMaster website? If not I will just direct people here to grab the game. 

Thanks for your time!

It's okay with me if you include the game on your web site. How are you handling input? Unfathomable is only built to accept keyboard input.

Thanks a lot! We are using this, it is basically a keyboard / mouse emulator that is preloaded before the actual game. https://portmaster.games/gptokeyb-documentation.html

Pretty cool!

Oh, and if you haven't already done this, you'll want the "Post Game Jam Edition" download. The "Game Jam Edition" download has a fatal bug.

Thanks, I think I used that one so far, but I will double check to be sure

could this input method be adapted to make "Akalabeth: World of Doom" (old Apple ][ game that very musch reminds of of this one -- said to be the original Ultima) runnable under portmaster?

Akalabeth definitely runs under an apple ][ emulator on an R36S, but figuring out the inputs seems tricky.

if you built an emulator that uses keyboard and use gptk with, then potentially. But we dont deal with emulators.

thanks for the response.  if you don't deal with emulators, how do you get dos x86 games to work on rockchip procs?

Usually open source engine reimplementation etc

i've been enjoying this game because i used to play Akalabeth, World of Doom on an ole Apple ][ and it's very much like this but even more privative graphics -- if you can imagine that!  Love this game.  Nostalgic.

Thanks very much!
