It was originally released for DOS in 2001, unfortunately, the DOS platform was already dying at that time. But this is no longer a problem. Now, thanks to FreeBASIC , DarkPhear is ported to more modern platforms. The game includes support for mouse, joystick, selection of language Portuguese / English, four levels of speed, sprite/pixel-based graphics, turn based battles, digital sound, and excellent songs composed by my friend Jeremy Eller. This new version has a few improvements and bug fixes, keeping the gameplay pretty much intact. | DarkPhear 1.1.2 beta | new | DarkPhear |
