Perentie is a Lua-based graphical adventure game engine for DOS. The design takes several cues from LucasArts' SCUMM and GrimE adventure game engines.

The design is still work-in-progress, however a lot of the base functionality has been implemented. Try it and see!

Featuring:

  • Lua-based scripting API
  • Co-operative threading
  • 320x200 256 colour VGA graphics
  • Bitmap text rendering with support for UTF-8
  • Debug shell over null modem/Telnet connection

The latest build is available from https://github.com/moralrecordings/perentie
