      It's a really awesome Sonic fangame, and one of the few that was released and finished. I mentioned the idea of a Raspberry Pi port to the maker some time after its release.

      Anyway, it's based on Game Maker, and there have been Pi ports of a few games made with GM. And this is open source. It'd be an excellent addition to RetroPie.

        Can't be ported, as the Raspberry Pi export module doesn't exist to the public yet. The GameMaker games already ported were a test run to gain interest for the module.

        Don't sweat it.
        When in doubt, take a BYTE out of life.

          Tbh the only place I see game maker games gaining any traction is if they allowed their games to be installed through the setup script as ports. I contacted them a while back about some games but they wanted the user to go to the web page and manually download the game... Most users don't care to do that and thus the games sank into mediocrity.

          If you read the documentation it will answer 99% of your questions: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/

          Also if you want a solution to your problems read this first: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

            Damn. And it's a bitchin' game, too. But if the export module was available to the public, could it be ported or would it run slow or not work or whatever?
