Kether 1.0.0

Kether (Philips CD-i), statically recompiled into a native Windows program.

You need your own copy of the disc as an image (the .cue and its .bin, raw 2352-byte sectors, e.g. Kether (USA) (En,Fr).bin). It is not included.

Downloads

• Kether-1.0.0-Setup.exe: installer. It installs for the current user, without administrator rights, and asks for the folder that holds the disc image.
• Kether-1.0.0-portable.zip: unzip anywhere and run. Put the disc image in rom\, or pick it when the game asks.
• SHA256SUMS.txt: checksums.

Windows 10 or later, 64-bit. Nothing else needs to be installed.

What's in it

• kether.exe is the original edition: the game as the CD-i showed it.
• kether_hd.exe is the HD edition: Cartoon HD / Cartoon HD+ upscaling (F10).
• Both editions:
  • run-ahead, to cut input lag (F6)
  • sprite interpolation at 60 fps (F7)
  • quicksave in 10 slots (F2 save, F3 slot, F4 load)
  • invincibility (F5)
• Portable: saves, settings and quicksaves stay in the game's folder (saves\, kether.ini). Nothing goes to AppData.
• At start the game checks for a newer release and offers to install it. Set update_check=0 in kether.ini to turn this off.
