Join me on a journey as I attempt to write a game for my Agon Light using nothing but raw C programming. In this first episode I figure out what kind of game to make, look at some shareware games of the past and get a basic game engine working, using nothing but C code - no external game engines or modern development tools.

It doesn't matter if you don't have an Agon Light, I'm bringing you along for the ride. We'll be looking at what shareware was, why it existed and how to make your life a bit easier as a developer.

The code for my game library that I'm building is available here
