New Version available for download.
MegaPlex is a FreeWare Win32 clone of the popular old DOS game Supaplex. To be more precise: it's a tool for fans of the game. This is the download site for the beta release of MegaPlex.
Features
With MegaPlex you can play all the existing SupaPlex levels. But that is only where it starts. Megaplex can also be used to edit/create levels, playback and even record demos. A special new file format allows levels of variable size - not only 60 by 24 as with Supaplex. The zoom as well as the playing speed can be customized to your needs. And everything works in a normal window on the Win32 desktop.
Quick comparison to Supaplex
MegaPlex is fully compatible with the original game. That means, all recorded demos, including nifty tricks and bugs of Supaplex, work equally with both. The most important difference is that in the current state MegapPlex does not support player- and high-score-lists. Neither does it use the menu screen and the level advancing logic of the DOS version. Time counting is exclusively done in frames.
