DIX project is an experimental game engine.
DIX is an advanced and highly unusual text-based but GUI-driven adventure game engine. It includes documentation, samples, and other goodies.
From user perspective, it probably offers substantially more than one would expect from hardcore text mode games, both in terms of GUI functionality, and gameplay.
Requirements:
· GNU make
· GNU CC
Installing
- unpack DIX tarball in the destination directory
- issue "make" (or "gmake") from command line.
- issue "./dix" to run the game
