Umoria 5.5 with color (colour) code by Edouard Poor, August 1992. The color code was originally for Archimedes, but designed to be easy to port elsewhere. Purple X then used it as the basis for an early Mac port.

This is the source for Umoria 5.5, a dungeon exploration game. This is my second major release of the game. These sources have been compiled successfully at least once in the following environments: UNIX (4.2 BSD, 4.3 BSD, SYS V, Xenix, and many similar systems), IBM-PC (MSC 5.0, Turbo C 2.0), Mac (MPW 3.0, Think C 4.0), Atari ST (MWC, GCC, TC 2.0), Amiga (Aztec C 5.0), and VMS. I consider these to be production sources. They should work without trouble on all of the systems mentioned above. Some minor bugs must surely remain, but there should be no major program bugs encountered. People who are accustomed to Umoria 4.87 MUST read the file doc/FEATURES.NEW which documents many of the user visible features. Don't send me bug reports unless you have read the file. Umoria 5.x does not understand Umoria 4.87 savefiles. The changes to the game are so great, that supporting the old savefile format is not worth the effort. Implementing a savefile conversion program will be an almost impossible task, and at least two people have tried and not succeeded. You may distribute modified copies of this game. However, you must clearly indicate the extent and purpose of the changes. Also, if the changes are extensive, I request that you call your sources something other than `umoria' so that they won't be confused with my version of the game. I would also appreciate receiving a copy of your changes, so that good ideas can be added back into my version.
