The source code appears to be from a backup taken in July 1996, a little over a year before the final release. It contains several early design and planning documents, a compiled build with a primitive model of the island, and roughly half of the codebase at the time. Sadly, the codebase is too incomplete to make a full build of the game, however some in-house tools can be built (e.g. CONVERT and VIEWER). | The source code appears to be from a backup taken in July 1996, a little over a year before the final release.
