In the show came a sr. With the source of the Abbey of Crime for PS2, this in C, SDL and the Vigasoco strip.

As remarked, we wanted to pile it on Dreamcast, as always thanks to the divine hand GPF we already have the source that compiles perfectly. I hope that what mireis and together with the Abadia.DSK what pongais underway:

I hadn't heard of the game before, so I had a look at the game's wikipedia entry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Abbey_of_Crime).

It seems it's a mystery action adventure game, which is right up my alley. I'll be sure to take a look at it when I get the chance. :)

From what I could gather, the Dreamcast version uses the sourcecode from the homebrew Playstation 2 port of VIGASOCO, which is the reimplementation of The Abbey of Crime.

La Abadía del Crimen was originally released for the 48k ZX Spectrum in 1987 or 1988. Due to copyright problems, could'nt be a licensed game of Umberto Eco's "El nombre de la Rosa" book, that inspired the great film with Sean Connery. This game has remained as the greatest software title in the spanish development history.
