What is TheXTech?
TheXTech - it's a platform game engine written in C++, is a full port of source code of SMBX 1.3 (Super Mario Bros. X fangame) which was originally written in Visual Basic 6. Created by Vitaly Novichkov (known as "Wohlstand") after one month since original SMBX source code was been released for two purposes: providing a free and open-source, cross-platform and accurate implementation of the SMBX Engine to allow playing of old levels and episodes, created for an original game, with the same behavior as the original game had; get a more convenient research model for a Moondust Engine development.
Comments and Reviews
This is basically Super Mario Bros. X, but it's free/libre/open source and has a native GNU+Linux port.
TheXTech is the engine for the "Super Mario Bros. X" game, it just named in a unique way, not just the "SMBX Engine", in the same manner as the "Id Tech" name for the Doom engine. Etymology: "The ~~Super Mario Bros.~~ X Tech". Just remove Nintendo's trademark, add "The" article at begin, add "Tech" at the end.
