Request/Info - OpenXcom - Looking into homebrew development and wanted to port it
EDIT: Doing a little more research into the idea, it seems there is an android port of OXCE+ which is Open Xcom Extended, which might be possible to run on the android switch port, going to setup android now just to test, I'll report back in a bit.This is my first ever Reddit post so forgive me if I get it a bit wrong but here goes.​I'm a huge fan of the OG Xcom and was looking into trying to port the open source version written in C++/SDL to the switch, but while doing research on the subject it seems that while C++ may work and SDL was ported for switch the SDL code is only for people who are licensed under Nintendo's NDA for development, unless I'm misunderstanding something? I'm not a coder but I really wanted to try my hand at this as a fun side project but now it seems I am unable to...I had some ideas, because it is a mouse+keyboard based game there is no controller support so that would have to be added in, left stick could be cursor control while binding the buttons besides A to certain actions but obviously that could be worked out after words. The biggest thing though that makes this seem like an awesome idea is the touch screen, being able to use the touch screen to play would make it play almost exactly the same as the DOS version because it used mostly mouse control, I think to alleviate some touch screen woes if playing with the battlescape scale higher than normal a UI scale slider should be added to make it easier to tap the icons at the bottom of the game.I'd really appreciate any info about this subject and would like to request if someone could attempt this in my stead if I'm right that I can't try to do it myself.https://wiki.libsdl.org/Installation#Nintendo_Switch This is the page I read about SDL.
