== What is Open Eggbert ==


Hello,
# Fan website about the game [[Speedy Blupi]]
 
# Encyclopedia about Speedy Blupi
I would like to announce the '''Open Eggbert''' project, launching in June 2024.
# Archive of websites, files, github repositories and Youtube videos related to Speedy Blupi
 
# Free and open-source reimplementation of Speedy Blupi
'''Reason:''' No one has yet appeared to start a project to create a reimplementation of Speedy Blupi I/2.
See: [[Special:AllPages|All articles]], [[Special:Categories|All categories]] or [[Special:SpecialPages|Special Pages]].
 
'''Open Eggbert's main goals:'''
 
# To develop a '''free''' and '''open-source''' reimplementation ''(from the scratch)'' of the '''Speedy Blupi/Eggbert I/II/1/2''' games (for Windows), originally released in 1998 and 2001. It is licensed under '''GPLv3 or later''' and support multiple platforms, including Windows, Linux, MacOS, Android, and the Web. Used technologies: '''Java''' programming language and the game framework '''LibGDX'''. '''Reasons for Java:''' I would like to focus more on the game logic than pointers etc.  '''Reasons for LibGDX:''' I think, that more programming is needed to create a solid game engine.
# To create '''encyclopedia''' of '''Speedy Blupi/Eggbert I/II/1/2'''. This includes specification (description) of the game engine, but also any information related to these games.
 
''Open Eggbert will be an approximation of the original Speedy Blupi/Eggbert games only and not a "clock cycle wise" identical behaviour. "clock cycle wise" identical behaviour is not possible without the source code of the original games.''
 
'''Current state of Speedy Blupi/Eggbert games:'''
 
* Both the games '''Speedy Blupi I''' and '''Speedy Blupi II''' are '''closed-source'''.
* Modifications are possible only by difficult hex editing of the EXE files
* We cannot fix bugs
* We cannot improve the existing features
* We cannot add new features
'''Current state of Open Eggbert:'''
 
* Very early stages of development. The amount of the work to do is huge. ''We have to build first the solid code base of the game infrastructure.''
* You can '''play a demo in web browser''', which is available also online at: https://play.openeggbert.com/
* '''Any contributions''' are welcome.
** If you would like to help, you can contact me at openeggbert@nanoboot.org.
** Review, what is planned to be worked on, is here: [[Projects]]
 
'''New era begins:''' Open Eggbert will allow adding new features, fixing bugs, porting the game to new platforms.
 
'''New features''' that will enhance the original games, are planned to. '''Examples of new features:''' Recreation of game graphics (doubled resolution). New vehicles. Existing features will be improved.
 
Please note: Open Eggbert is specifically focused on recreating Speedy Blupi/Eggbert games. It does not include other Blupi games.
 
''Open Eggbert does not plan to support iPhone. Reason: iPhone via RoboVM supports only Java 8. But you can try compile Open Eggbert with Java 8 and add iPhone support.''
 
== Goals ==
 
# To collect all available knowledge related to the games Speedy Blupi/Eggbert
# To create the ultimate specification of Speedy Blupi game.
# To reimplement the original Speedy Blupi game engine
# To reverse engineer the origin Speedy Blupi game engine (EXE or XAP files) ''This has the purpose to find out, how Speedy Blupi engine works in detail.''
# To create free replacements of game assets (MIDI music, WAV sounds, BMP graphics)
# To specify and implement new features with comparison to Speedy Blupi I/II

== How to contribute ==
* Development ( https://github.com/openeggbert/open-eggbert )
** Fork the Github repository, add changes and create merge requests.
** Test features for bugs.
** Add missing tests
** Create an issue or suggest a feature backed up by a use case.
** Provide or suggest an implementation of an issue from GitHub Issues.
** Once you've made your decision on what you'd like to do, please inform us beforehand. This ensures that the issue you're interested in hasn't already been addressed or is being worked on in newer versions.
* Documentation ( https://openeggbert.com ).
** Create new articles, improve existing articles. Correct errors, ambiguities and typos.
** Your changes will be made public, once approved. Verified users will be granted the right to public the changes immediately.
* Reverse engineer EXE or XAP files of Speedy Blupi/Eggbert games.
* Discuss the Open Eggbert project ( https://forum.openeggbert.com )
** New features
** Propose your ideas regarding the '''Open Eggbert''' project.
*To create free replacements for game assets
**MIDI music, WAV sounds, BMP graphics
**Applications like Gimp, Inkscape and Blender can be used to achieve these goals
**3D sprites for Speedy Blupi were created using the Ray Dream Studio 3D application
**Music for Speedy Blupi was created using the Microsoft Music Producer application
**Sounds - Original sounds may be the own recordings of the voice of Daniel Roux
