Pascal version of Cavern Fighter on the Raspberry PI


After several hours making changes to my original Delphi code, I have now recompiled my Cavern Fighter PC game to run on the Raspberry PI. Using Free Pascal and the Lazarus IDE I finally got it running. At the moment the frame rate is a little slow and it has no sound. I’ll either get the Linux files for Bass or look to use the SDL library to play the background tunes and spot effects. For those who don’t know, I wrote this game back in 2004 for a Retro Game competition. It is based on a ZX Spectrum game of the same name.
 


Here is a picture of it running in the debugger via a VNC link.

Good old Scramble, just keeps rolling along.

Lately, I've been messing around with an Arduino. Oh what fun!
