ENIGMA: Lackluster? April 9, 2008

Posted by Robin in : GMKing , trackback

GMNews touted the first release of ENIGMA (the open source project designed to convert Game Maker source files into C++, that is then compiled) earlier this week. I, being drawn to open source software as I am, headed straight for the download page.

Enigma default game screenshotI must admit that from the already compiled games in their community, as well as the quality of the distribution and documentation it looks very impressive; however, I was unable to compile even the simplest game on my Vista machine. I’m not sure if this is an problem specifically with Vista support, or in the program in general.

You can be sure I’ll be trying out the next version of ENIGMA!

It was a demo release, currently it’s only really stable under XP.
