Tinnus has ported the Jazz Jackrabbit interpreter to the Zodiac. Heres what he says:

- Put game files in /PALM/Programs/OpenJazz
- Currently no sound, trying to exit crashes. You will have to reset on exit one way or the other :)
- Yes, I know it's bloody slow. In the coming versions I'll try to optimize this thing by getting rid of SDL. Too much SDL blits = too slow! Maybe I'll replace the SDL blitting calls with my own.
- Also, there are some random bugs, like the weird sky colors in the first level. This is specific to the Palm OS port.
- There are lots of bugs inherent to the engine though, which I'd better wait for them to be corrected by the main author. For example, Jack jumps low when the FPS is bad.
