Escape from Colditz - 4-Player Mod - v0.9
Download link: https://github.com/FluffyQuack/colditz-escape/releases
This is a fork of an Escape from Colditz re-implementation that I've modded to include some new features. Escape from Colditz is a single-player old Amiga game from early '90s where you have to escape from a prison with 4 prisoners and you can switch viewpoint whenever. This re-implementation was made by Aperture Software, and the mod I've made includes the following features:
You now see the viewpoint of all 4 characters all the time.
You can use Xinput game controllers (aka Xbox 360, Xbox One, or compatible controllers) to control all 4 characters at the same time, aka 4-player co-op!
The camera no longer pans if the room is small enough to show the whole room at the same time.
I haven't done a full playthrough of the mod myself, but it should be fully playable from start to finish in both single-player and co-op play. If anyone does beat the game using this mod, please let me know!
Notes about controls:
Controller #1 and keyboard controls character 1 aka British character.
Controller #2 controls character 2 aka French character.
Controller #3 controls character 3 aka American character.
Controller #4 controls character 4 aka Polish character.
F1-F4: Map controller #1 and keyboard to a specific character. This way, you can play through the mod in single-player by swapping to different characters.
If you wait at the title screen, you'll see controls for keyboard. Numpad controls movement.
Stooge button is disabled as it doesn't make sense any more since you can always see all 4 viewpoints.
