Game Description:
What is Rigel Engine?
This project is a re-implementation of the game Duke Nukem II, originally released by Apogee Software in 1993 for MS-DOS. RigelEngine works as a drop-in replacement for the original executable: It reads the game's data files and plays just like the original, but runs natively on modern operating systems and is written in modern C++ code.
Compared to running the original in an emulator, RigelEngine offers many modern enhancements and usability improvements, including:
- wide-screen mode
- smooth scrolling & movement mode with increased frame rate
- quick saving
- improved game controller support
- extended modding features
