Just ported my card game Astral Towers for Linux. It's a card game made with my open source pascal engine, which is available at Github (https://github.com/Cooler2/ApusGameEngine).

Now there are 2 game versions, both built from the same source code:

• Windows - 32-bit, built with Delphi Community Edition.
• Linux (64-bit, built with Lazarus 2.11 / FPC 3.3).

The game project's source code is available for all my patrons at Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/ApusGameEngine) ...

Introduction
I'm a self-taught programmer that started out with C64 BASIC back in the 1980;ies. I quickly moved on to 6502 assembler and became quite good at coding demos, I'm still impressed what a 8-bit 1MHz CPU is capable of. As a natural next step I moved on to 16-bit assembler on the Amiga (Motorola 68k) and produced a few demos there aswell. Started using C to tie my assembly routines together, and later used it as a high level language to make ...

Hey everybody!

Been hard at work at my day job and on the new house. Both have left me not too much time for supporting the PGD community, however it has left me with a little bit of personal time to work on some of my special projects such as Garland's Quest, which recently has been taken on as a budgeted commercial game project. I've already hired a professional artist and musician who have been coming up with some great stuff for the game's complete make-over. The other big project ...
