Source
- The game is written in C++. Like many ports, it maintains its own library of routines for text and graphics. The GP2X port uses the SDL library to connect to the JoyStick and implement the screen bitblt function.
- Most of the source code is for multiple platforms, and is available from [1]. It uses MikMod for the sound.
- The source code differences for the GP2X port are included as a zip file in the download.
- doc.cpp is the code that maps the joystick movmement from GP2X buttons, handles storing high scores, and calls SDL to dump a frame of graphics.
- SDL_framerate.cpp is A. Schiffler's short frame rate manager.
