About
Kiloblaster is a 1992 fixed-shooter trilogy written by Allen Pilgrim and published by Epic MegaGames, based on Namco's 1979 Galaxian but adding greater player movement, faster and tougher enemies, power-ups, and allies. This is a Linux/SDL port of Kiloblaster that uses libgamemusic and a bundled DOSBox OPL synth emulator for its music, and runs using Kiloblaster's own data files (all three episodes of which were released as freeware).
Getting started
Build it with "./configure && make" (running "./autogen.sh" first if building from git); the resulting binary must be placed alongside Kiloblaster's data files, which are freely downloadable from classicdosgames.com.
Known limitations
- compatibility: Only runs on little-endian CPUs due to endian-specific file handling.
