instead 2.2.0

#1 Post by 666philb »

INSTEAD was designed to interpret the games that are the mix of visual novels, text quests and classical 90's quests.

website http://instead.syscall.ru/about/
download 2.2.0 here https://copy.com/kjbNzRVIeV2hEkWx

i've not packaged it with any of the dependencies so you'll need to get them from the PPM ... use the find box.
libsdl-ttf
libsdl-mixer
libsdl-image (tahrpup already has this)
liblua5.1

it was compiled on lucid, so should work in most pups

Xenialpup64, built with xenial xerus packages http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=107331

This also works in Carolina, it has all the sdl files, just liblua5.1.so.0 missing.

Thanks so much for your helpful pet-packaging, 666philb! :D Immediately installed it in (your) tahrpup. Also thanks to you, Geoffrey, for the liblua.pet.

There may be not that many English games for INSTEAD yet. But in addition to TWINE (CYOA approach) and TADS3 or Inform7 (parser approach) it's a very interesting interactive fiction system.

Personally, I like this puzzle game by the author Peter Kosyh: http://instead-games.ru/game.php?ID=118

Instead 2.3.0 got released today! It would be wonderful if someone could provide a little pet package for us - including me (preferably Tahr64, but that's not a necessity).

Thank you! Yes, the deb installs just fine. So as soon as I've added all needed SDL dependencies, it should work.

Nice game engine with a lot of potential!
Also builds and links static (no gtk elements though) against uclibc and tinyX11.
Download instead-2.3.0.pet 6.8Mb/9.6Mb installed - included instead-ilines-1.1 game to get you started.
No additional libraries should be needed and it should work in most versions of Puppy.
