About

ZZT and Super ZZT are 1991 DOS action-adventure puzzle games and creation systems from Potomac Computer Systems, later released as freeware in 1997, notable for letting players build their own worlds using the ZZT-OOP scripting language. Zeta is a small emulator implementing just enough of a DOS-compatible environment to run ZZT and Super ZZT accurately, rather than being a general-purpose DOS emulator. It builds with Meson, including a WebAssembly target with an HTML5 loader for playing in a browser.

Getting started

Build it with Meson for desktop use, or build the WebAssembly target plus its accompanying HTML5 loader files to run it directly in a web browser.
