# MES
|
||||
|
||||
Mono[chrome] Entertainment System, or MES - the only monochrome based console.
|
||||
|
||||
The Mono Entertainment System, or MES, is the first console targeted at Monochrome users.
|
||||
|
||||
This is for you if:
|
||||
|
||||
* You like monochrome's simplistic style
|
||||
* You like monochrome's simple black/white style
|
||||
|
||||
* You're in survival and can't afford a resource-expensive advanced PC
|
||||
* You're in survival and can't afford an expensive advanced PC
|
||||
|
||||
* You're a collector
|
||||
|
||||
* You're a developer and would like to try something new
|
||||
|
||||
* You're not good with colour and would prefer to work with a simple black/white interface (colour blindness? just not good with colour?)
|
||||
|
||||
So let's say you didn't want one for these reasons. Why get a MES?
|
||||
|
||||
* Games are available to this day!
|
||||
* Games are available - and being reprinted in 2017!
|
||||
|
||||
* Colour games can be played thanks to Gonow32's fantastic Colour-to-Mono wrapper
|
||||
|
||||
* It is a very unique and special system in its own right for doing what it shouldn't - by running colour games
|
||||
* It is a very unique and special system in its own right for punching above its weight (by running colour games)
|
||||
|
||||
Wait, hang on. Colour games?! I thought this was a monochrome console!
|
||||
|
||||
You're right. It is. But we're doing something no monochrome console has ever done before. The MES will trick the game by spoofing an advanced computer, and will convert all the colours on the fly to black/white. All of this is possible through Gonow32's superb wrapper.

||||
You're right. It is. But we're doing something no monochrome console has ever done before. The MES will trick the game into thinking this is an advanced computer, and will convert all the colours automatically to black/white. All of this is possible through Gonow32's superb wrapper.
|
||||
|
||||
Ever wanted Skyfall on a standard PC? Have a look at it on your MES - there were no major issues out of the box with the first revision of the wrapper. On top of this, the wrapper has received numerous updates and improvements to improve compatibility.
|
||||
Ever wanted Skyfall on a standard PC? Have a look at it on your MES - there were absolutely no critical issues, and there was just one graphical glitch with the title screen only displaying the word "games" and not the full "nitrosoft games", and this was easily fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
Anybody who is interested in the project, contact Mr_Iron2. If you would like to contact via Discord, contact TheMrIron2#9747.
|
||||
Of course, not every game works perfectly. CCSand saw through our trick [fixed in Wrapper v1.3], and many games didn't work due to no mouse support. The wrapper is in early testing, and future plans would be to add an on-screen cursor to emulate a mouse click, controlled by WASD/arrow keys or similar controls.
|
||||
|
||||
### UPDATE 18/9/2017: MES is now an OPEN PLATFORM!
|
||||
|
||||
Yes, that's right! Now anybody and everybody can develop and release games independently for MES! MES is the first games system in ComputerCraft to become an officially open platform - and not only that, but now a barebones SDK is included *in every MES*!

# Games
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Skyfall
|
||||
|
||||
Description: Avoid the falling snow! This game is a perfect example of where the MES shines; despite having just 2 colours, the game still looks great and adds a fresh new look to the game.
|
||||
|
||||
Additional Info: None
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## BBTetris
|
||||
|
||||
Description: Classic Tetris in ComputerCraft. Features support for iron note blocks for SOUND!
|
||||
|
||||
Developer notes: Native support for monochrome.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Stacker
|
||||
|
||||
Description: Stack as many blocks as you can to make the highest tower possible! Simple but addicting fun.
|
||||
|
||||
Developer notes: The game was black and white to begin with
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Lasers
|
||||
|
||||
Description: Avoid laser fire. Get high score. Featuring slick yet simplistic graphics, Lasers is an enjoyable game for racking up high scores.
|
||||
|
||||
Developer notes: A patch was required to show menus, in-game has no issues
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## TRON:
|
||||
|
||||
Description: RedNet based multiplayer game. You navigate through a big playing field and, like a big game of Snake/Worm, the first person to run into a wall loses. The game is a joy to play and a perfect example of how Rednet multiplayer should be done.
|
||||
|
||||
Additional Info: Bestseller!
