Feature complete port of Duke Nukem, Episode 1 to Atari ST by Neil Rackett.

Introduction

1991 saw the arrival of two 90s icons: Duke Nukem and the Atari Mega STE, but sadly they never met... Until now!

To celebrate their 35th Birthday I've ported the full Episode 1 (shareware version) of Duke Nukem to the Atari ST: it runs on any ST with at least 2MB of RAM, and of course includes support for Mega STE features like Blitter and 16MHz mode.

A big thanks to the FreeNukum project, which this is based on (and goes way beyond).

System requirements

  • Atari ST/STE, Mega ST/STE or TT
  • 2MB+ RAM
  • ST low resolution
  • A hard disk with the game files:
    • NUKUM.TOS
    • NUKUM\DATA\*.DN1 (see below)

Game data

The game requires the original game graphics and level data, extracted into
the NUKUM\DATA folder alongside NUKUM.TOS.

The easiest way to install the freely distributable shareware episode is the
bundled installer — run it from the folder containing NUKUM.TOS:

  • macOS / Linux: sh installer/install.sh
  • Windows: installer\install.bat
