Xenospore

Prevent the Xenospore from spreading!

Finished my last few ports that I have had laying around despite still being quite busy, xdelta patch has been created to make the game actually playable, but I still need to package it with an xdelta patcher.

Instructions:

1. Download the Linux version of Xenospore here: https://avivlevy.itch.io/xenospore
2. Patch the "Xenospore.x86_64" with xdelta and name the new file "Xenospore.pck "
3. Add the Xenospore.pck file to the gamedata folder.

@untold anvil you're planning to do PRs for your other games aswell right? 😛

Sorry, tagged a WIP project don't test

[eager beacon]

neither of windows or linux download contains a pck file anyway, what would be an easy way to extract it from, lets say windows version "xenosphere.exe"?

[sand thunder]

✅ R36S(ArkOS), do you really need the patcher? Just open up the .exe and grab the .pck. Then rename it to xenospore.pck.

Mouse control could be a bit lower sensitivity imo.

Or ask the dev to allow distribution, if you haven't. @untold anvil

Ah I think I must have used the linux executable as a package, I downloaded a set of games to port a while back, let me update the description to reflect that

Yep, just verified it, that's exactly what I did

[sand thunder]

Yeah just patch the linux package

[untold anvil]

Yeah, tagged WIP not to overwhelm testers.
More PRs will be coming soon, I'm still pretty busy, didn't really intend to start more ports. But I really wanted to get rid of my random assortment of pck files laying around in a folder on my desktop for potential ports lmao

[untold anvil]

Patcher is needed since I re-exported the game, adding proper mouse support, the game is still technically playable without it, but I wouldn't recommend it. (It also strips the linux executable bloat which is nice)

RG503(ArkOS) hitting "START" flashes the tty screen.

came here to see what you did to get the pck file from the executable, but I can see xdelta takes care of that in one fell swoop
so I made the patch automatic for you here

runs on RGB30//JELOS and RG353M/ArkOS for me, might want to recommend/patch/ship save file to disable crt filter by default

{... "crt_enabled":0 ... }

as (even) on 720x720 it's hard to read with that on tbh

[untold anvil]

Thanks, that's nice of you!
Yeah, that's a good idea

[supple wraith]

RG503(ArkOS) hitting "START" flashes the tty screen still. Seems the 'enter' key is the issue. l2 also flashes the screen. Anyone else seeing this?

[vernal moat]

seeing that too
for Enter it's mapped in Godot to "fullscreen", that should go
(and in gptk enter is mapped to start and l2)
@untold anvil for the next one

ahh, they're using keypad enter specifically for confirm
