About

Desert Strike and its 1993 sequel Jungle Strike are Electronic Arts helicopter shoot 'em ups that mix action and strategy. OpenStrike is an open-source reimplementation of Desert Strike and Jungle Strike, in early development and not yet playable. So far it offers a .DAT unpacker, a graphics viewer, a full level viewer and a game skeleton that loads and renders sprites and a controllable chopper.

Getting started

Build with CMake after initializing the git submodules. Every tool, including the game, needs an original Desert or Jungle Strike .DAT file; in-game, arrow keys fly the chopper and Z/X/C fire.
