About

Hard Truck: Apocalypse, known in Europe as Ex Machina, is a vehicular combat game developed by Targem Games in which the player controls an armored truck, trading and fighting across a post-apocalyptic Europe. retruxx is a reverse-engineered reimplementation of Hard Truck Apocalypse, currently a Windows-only 32-bit build that loads the original game's renderer, input, and sound DLLs at runtime. Much of the game logic is not yet reimplemented.

Getting started

You need an existing installation of Ex Machina / Hard Truck Apocalypse for the game data and driver DLLs, and you start retruxx.exe with that install directory as the working directory; since much of the game isn't finished, code that hits an unimplemented function stops in the debugger and exits, so it's meant to be run under one.

Known issues & limitations

• development: Much of the game is not reimplemented yet; unimplemented functions cause the game to stop in debugger and exit.
