Asylum for Windows (Godot port) 1.0.0

First release of the Windows port of Asylum (Andy Southgate, 1994), based on SDL Asylum and running on Godot Engine 4.7.2.

Install

Download asylum-windows-godot-1.0.0-windows-x86_64.zip, extract it anywhere and start Asylum\Asylum.exe. Nothing is installed: settings, high scores and the saved position are stored in userdata\ next to Asylum.exe.

Requirements: 64-bit Windows 10 or later, and a graphics driver with OpenGL 3.3 support.

Highlights

• The original game with its unchanged data: the mental zones Ego, Psyche and Id
• Display modes Windowed, Borderless and Full Screen; F11 or Alt+Enter switches between the window and full screen
• Window aspect ratios 4:3, 16:10, 16:9 and 21:9 with every standard resolution that fits the monitor
• Scale 1.0x to 3.0x: a higher scale raises the internal resolution and shows more of the game world
• The picture always fills the window or screen, without black bars or plain stretching
• Smooth Motion (interpolation of the 50 Hz game logic) and Vsync options
• English, Korean and Simplified Chinese
• Rebindable keys, gamepads, and the mouse in menus

See the README for controls and settings, and docs/PORTING_NOTES.md for every difference from the original.
