Plug your shit

I recently got a Windows 8 tablet and noticed that none of the DOS games I got on GOG worked (missing mouse->failure to launch. windib mode->mouse still erratic). I decided the solve the problem myself and added touch support to SDL. Might be helpful to all 2 of you who actually have a Windows 8 tablet!

 

 

 

Edit: 

 

Now with much more robust ScummVM support! (Notice the 1-to-1 cursor mapping)

That's pretty cool! Still looks a bit cumbersome to use, but then I'm not a fan of touchscreen gaming in general.

Damnit Tycho! I wanted to do that. ):

 

How dare you have more motivation to follow through on your dreams of glory than I do.

 

Anyway it's great. NICE.

I don't get the scoring, on what is it based?

From the FAQ:

To assign a score to a game, we objectively determine which number, on a scale from one to ten, best represents the game’s quality. This number takes into consideration all of the relevant information about the game, including the game’s graphics and its story.

He uses a complex formula (math) to determine the number. Math is objective.

We're laughing now, but this will end with Tycho being crowned king of the internet.

Who would have guessed that an idiot who doesn't know a goddamn thing about the Internet would run into issues trying to run his own website? GO FIGURE!
