Thumbs up Croft Engine

Can't seem to find a thread about this so here goes!



Very intriguing!! Multiplayer has absolutely caught my attention

Release page: https://github.com/stohrendorf/CroftEngine/releases/
Sadly as I'm currently on my phone I cannot copy paste the instructions text - but you can view such in the youtube video description.

I'm pretty impressed. I love the CRT version effects, that's how I remember in the 90's on PS1.
If they ported on the PS3, PS4, or PS5. PS3 should be easier, along with trophy support, then I'm totally sold. Obviously not going to happen but it would be nice if they did.

I feel sorry for Crystal Dynamics TR wokey teenagers or young adult gamers who never got to experience to play the first TR back in 1996, they have no idea what they are missing out on back in the day. I'm soooo lucky to witness and experience it in mid 90's

Yeah this was called Edison Engine before changing to Croft Engine, I think there's a thread by the creator iirc. I'll check it out real soon. It looks fantastic.

Indeed it was- here's the original thread. The thread hasn't been updated recently, but I'm sure it'll be updated soon.

Oh no! It definately didnt appear from my forum search. A mod is welcome to close this in wait for updates in the authors original thread.

The GitHub page says:

Quote:
Please note that because every tool builder or level builder seemingly decided to completely ignore CroftEngine despite offering support, the project is now dead after about 7 years of development.
Let's hope things changes sometime in the future...

Thanks for posting this, we worked hard to put this together. If we generate enough users to the game single player or multiplayer then there will be more in store! We will be doing a community race on the Croft Engine Discord this Sunday 7pm UK time/2pm EST. Come have fun and meet the people who worked on the video and the program.

We thank you for the kind words <3

You're more than welcome!

Does that mean the quote by nanoRaider was wrong/maybe made out of frustrated passion?

The ghosts look really cool for speedrunning; even if you're not a speedrunner it'll be interesting to compare your own personal level times and choices of routes. The stats look interesting too, listing item by item; does it tell you if you've missed an item in the 'total' column?
