Open Fodder is an open source engine to play Cannon Fodder.
Cannon Fodder is an action-strategy shoot 'em up game developed by Sensible Software and published by Virgin Interactive.
The game is military-themed and based on shooting action but with a strategy game-style control system. The player directs troops through numerous missions, battling enemy infantry, vehicles and installations.
Here is Open Fodder, an open source remake of Cannon Fodder.
Note that you need some Cannon Fodder data to play this game, but it come with some Amiga demos.
To use the Dos Retail CD Version / GoG Version
Copy 'CF_ENG.DAT' from the CD to the Data/Dos_CD folder
If you have the GoG version, you can just put the setup exe file in appdata/openfodder and the file will be auto extracted.
For the Amiga Retail
Use the WHDLoad installer on an Amiga to extract the game files, and copy all the extracted files into the Data/Amiga folder
And for the Amiga CD32 Retail
Copy the files from the 'Fodder' folder on the CD-Rom, to the Data/Amiga_CD folder. For the final video, Extract Track2 from the CD and name it 'Track2.flv', placed in the Amiga_CD folder.
The TouchScreen is not really functionnal. There is an offset and no modifier for right-click. Not sure it will be easy to add the touchscreen, I have seen many "SDL_WarpMouse" that may make things difficult.
