This is the source code of Castaway, a game for the ZX Spectrum 48K (or later).
I'm sharing it as an historic curiosity and hoping that it may be interesting; because the code quality isn't great (my excuse is that I was learning, what is yours?), and some of the dependencies may require a bit too much effort to compile the game.
You will need:
- A POSIX environment (Linux is perfect)
- GCC, GNU Make, Python 2
- Z88DK v1.9 (other versions may or may not work)
- sp1.lib from Z88DK
If you want to build this code with a more recent version of Z88DK, please check z88dk-nightly branch. It has been tested on MacOS only, but it may be easier than getting Z88DK v1.9 to compile (I'm told, I didn't have any issue in Debian).
Then cross your fingers and run make.
It should end with:
***
Max: 26936 bytes
Current: 26875 bytes (umain.bin)
Left: 61 bytes
***
And castawy.tap should be ready to load in an emulator.
I provide this source code "as is" without any support.
The source code of the game is licensed GPL 3.0, the assets are CC-BY-SA.
The tools/libraries included that I don't own have their own copyright notices and license (some are public domain, others are open source).
