Thx @timpark


Thanks for sharing my demake, @tosh

Seems most ppl are appreciating it for what it is, which is nice to see/hear :)


Firstly, I'd like to thank you for taking the time to give feedback on my project (both positive and otherwise). :o)

With regards to the naming; I can see your point about the potential to "mislead" (which I attempted to negate right off the bat with my ReadMe).

However, the reason that I personally (and I understand this IS subjective) felt justified to incorporate the SCUMM name in the title is because I deliberately kept my API as identical as possible to the original SCUMM API (within reason - some functions/properties really needed modernising or weren't applicable).

There is also plans to be even closer to the original SCUMM design by distilling generated output (from a new Editor that I'm currently working on) to something akin, but not quite, OP-codes. If only to allow more game content to reside in the heavily-restricted space available in PICO-8 carts.

Again, thanks for all the valuable feedback (I have NO idea how my post got linked here), but I'm grateful all the same.

All the best,

Paul.
