This is a game I created for fun to participate in the RETRO GAME DEV contest organized by ESPACIO TEC an argentinian digital archeology museum.
If you want to open TA.BAS
in a text editor do not change it's encoding when doing so, otherwise spanish special characters will be broken when you execute it using DOSBOX. In VSCODE the correct encoding is cp850
.
In order to play this game you have to download an install DOSBOX for MS-DOS emulation.
You can get it here
Once you have DOSBOX installed you have to follow this steps:
1 - Clone this repo and move GWBASIC.EXE into the root folder
2 - Open DOSBOX and set the key binding to LATAM spanish. This game is in spanish so encoding of MS-DOS must be configured.
keyb la
3 - Mount the folder that contains the game and GWBASIC.EXE as C:
mount c C:\GWBASIC
4 - Change drives, to the previously mounted C: drive
C:
- 5 Run the game and enjoy!
