Description

FPC Atomic is a complete reimplementation of the original Atomic Bomberman game (from 1995). This repository hosts only the source code, as the graphics and sounds are copyrighted by Interplay Productions. To play the game, you need to extract the original graphics from the game disc and provide them as requested by the game (there is a tool planned for future versions to extract the data automatically).

Differences to the original

Here are the differences between FPC Atomic and the original Atomic Bomberman:

• Implementation in TCP (instead of slow IPX)
• Missing AI (and thus, single player mode)
• Not all sounds are used
• Missing online manual; use the manual provided in this repository instead.
• Pro gamers may discover additional differences due to our guessing the original functionality.
