What's new

  • No more strangers in the roster. The original disk images come with screamers already registered by whoever played them before ("ari-ken", "Google", "Ryo"). OpenScreamer now starts with an empty roster.
  • Rosters saved by 0.1.0 and 0.1.1 lose those leftover screamers too, but only those still exactly as they were on the disk. A screamer you played on stays.
  • Settings → Roster: "Restore the original disk's roster" is now Empty the roster.

Downloads

Windows (64-bit) OpenScreamer-0.1.2-windows.zip
Linux (x86-64, Steam Deck) OpenScreamer-0.1.2-linux.zip
macOS OpenScreamer-0.1.2-macos.zip

You still need your own disk image of the PC-9801 version of THE SCREAMER (.fdd, .fdi, .hdm, .d88, or a zip of one): OpenScreamer contains nothing from the original game. If you imported it with an earlier version, there's nothing to do: your saves and settings carry over.

The Linux and macOS builds still haven't been tried on a real machine; reports are welcome. macOS: the app isn't signed by Apple, so the first time, go to System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway.
