Hi Lisa, Yeah, go ahead and send it. I'll certainly take a look at it. As for porting it that would depend on how complex the game is and what sort of features you might be looking for here in the port.
For example, do you want SAPI support, direct screen reader support, onscreen text, etc? Do you want a full blown Windows application complete with its own Window buttons and controls, or do you want a Windows console application that runs in a Command Prompt Window that is similar to the original, but built for modern versions of Windows? Do you want sounds and music? If you can give me an idea of what you want me to do with the game, how you want me to port it, I'll be in a better position to give you a direct answer. However, in the meantime go ahead and send the Dos game and I'll take a look at it. Cheers!
