Game Kit

The Game Kit is here!

I've made an all purpose game library named the Game Kit. The library works in 32-bit DOS, and is written in Watcom C/C++.The current version is 1.0.

It currently includes.

2D Bitmaps
Easy Manipulating Of Objects
Virtual 18bit color!
Easy loading of graphics files
Keyboard support with custom keyboard handler
32 Bit With Watcom C/C++ (Version 10.6 but 10, 10.5, and 11 will also work)
Easy porting
Faded and semi-transparent bitmaps as well as regular bitmaps
Animation objects
Virtual buffers
Mouse support
Fixed Point Routines
Palette Routines
Free source!
More!

The Future

Currently I'm working on another small board game that uses the game kit to handle everything. Hopefully I'll still be able to update the Game Kit sometime soon. But don't count on it cause I'm also working another other major game.:(
