"FrankenDrift": Play ADRIFT games on Mac and Linux

Another comp, another update, lol. With the imminent release of this year’s IFComp titles, including Lost Coastlines, I’m releasing version 0.6.0 of FrankenDrift with rudimentary support for an automatic map. (Because good luck playing that game without one.) I didn’t actually have a chance to test this with Lost Coastlines, so I guess we’ll have to just wait and find out together if it works or if it just crumbles under the size of that game :sweat_smile: :man_shrugging:. Anyways, here’s the download link:

Features include:

  • the automatic map (duh)
  • drag the map to look around (still fighting with making zoom work nicely)
  • in/out/up/down look a bit screwy but cardinal directions work alright
  • correctly interpret certain XML entities like > and <
  • actually visible text in Lost Coastlines (with v0.6.1)
  • update dependencies, remove old stuff, blah blah blah who even cares about the details just give me the thing

Works every time, 60 percent of the time...
