Heart of Darkness

HeartOfDarkness-SDL: an SDL2 reimplementation of the Heart of Darkness engine, by Amazing Studio, and a fork of “hode” by Gregory Montoir. It aims to be 100% faithful to the real game and run on any system where SDL2 does. Version 0.2.9 (August 3, 2020) has packages for Windows, Xbox, Linux, Android, Switch, Wii, PS Vita, and PSP; the README mentions 0.2.9.1. Menus are missing; PSX files can be used, but without sound (SPU ADPCM) or backgrounds (MDEC), and Android has no GUI control. It has a wiki, a changelog, and a compatibility table.

You needThe data files from your own copy of the Windows version of Heart of Darkness (full game or demo): hod.paf (or hod_demo.paf and hod_demo2.paf), setup.dat, and the *_hod.lvl, *_hod.sss, and *_hod.mst files. Windows, Linux, or another system with SDL2.
