You are on the beta version of My Abandonware. The live site is still myabandonware.com. Your favorites and ratings here are copied to the live site. Comments and other changes are not — we delete them every morning at 08:00 Paris time, when this site goes down for about an hour. Leave feedback through this link to Pastel (email required).
The beta goes down at 08:00 Paris time, in a few minutes. We rebuild the database from the live site. It comes back in about an hour.
I really wanted to play your game, but I don't speak German, so I go to your GIT page and cloned the repository. And also downloaded the zip file. This way (clone or download the zip) the game is unobtainable. Because those are not real files, just few byte long text files.
Theres only the soundtrack (in the Data/Menestrels/ folder), and a few screenshots and documents in the 'Doc' folder, that are actually real files.
In the 'Bin' folder all the executable files are just 130-132 byte long text files, not real executables. In the Data/SaveGames/ folder everything are just these 130 byte text files. In the 'Data/SourceAssets/Localization' folders (both English and German) just some text files and the PDF are real files, everything else are those 130 byte long text files with different extensions. In the 'Data/SourceAssets/Original/' folder everything are just those 130 byte text files with different extensions. In the 'Game' folder, both 'English' and 'Original' contains those 130 byte text files not the real executables and game files.
Only the 'Source' folder that is actually contains real files.
I managed to download the game only by opening the '/FlorianBorn71/Desperabis/blob/main/Game/English/' page and manully download every single file one-by-one. Please fix it so when someone clone the repo or download the zip, they actually contain the real files.
...that includes: - An English version of the original game, - walkthrough - the full soundtrack as mp3 - a modern renderer, that renders original assets on VR: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/tKSlyRfoi4k
