About
The original game, Meikyuujou Hydra ("Hydra Castle Labyrinth"), was created by Japanese developer E.Hashimoto, also known by the alias "Buster." This version of Hydra Castle Labyrinth adds SDL support (versions 1.2, 2.0, or 3.0) and targets Linux, OpenPandora, PocketCHIP, and ODROID hardware, alongside a browser-playable build compiled with Emscripten.
How it differs from the original
This build is based on an existing unofficial 3DS port of the game rather than the original code, and the PSP- and Wii-related portions carried over from that port are noted as unfinished.
Getting started
Install SDL and SDL_mixer for your chosen SDL version (1.2, 2.0, or 3.0), then build the project with CMake and run the resulting program; pass a command-line flag to run in fullscreen. A browser-playable version is also available online with no installation required.
History
This version builds on an earlier fan-made port of the game for the Nintendo 3DS, created anonymously by a contributor from 4chan's /vg/ board, who gave permission for the work to be relicensed under the GPLv2.
Known limitations
- platform: PSP and Wii ports are unfinished.
Additional notes
- Known limitation
