Downloads

The latest WIP source code is available from the RS Mercurial repository. You can download it with a Mercurial client from the read-only repository:

http://www.retrosoftware.co.uk/hg/castleraider

Or you can download a zip archive of the latest pre-release code here.

The code is built using a Python script. You will need the Ophis assembler to assemble the code - this is done automatically by the build script. The output of the build script is a UEF file which can be used in Elkulator, BeebEm and probably ElectrEm.
