Update 13/10/2019: The Allegro versions never got finished, I'll see if I can find the code. The source for the Car Game has been tidied and has been uploaded to the Macintosh Repository (see downloads page for link). I had a lot of fun on this about 15 years ago, so hopefully someone might find it interesting today!

Welcome to the home page of Fruit Cake Software, makers of such epic titles as "Car Game." Fruit Cake software consists of a two-man development team (we expanded :-)

I generally write programs and update this page infrequently, so don't expect daily updates!

The next version of Car Game is currently in a pre-alpha development stage, as soon as it does something useful, we shall post it, and the sources, here. As we have recently moved development from RealBASIC to Allegro/C we're completely rewiting the games. Don't panic though, you can still get the old versions. We're not abandoning any platforms either, you will still be able to use the car game wether you run Linux, Mac OS X or Windows. But you'll need liballegro 4.2.0 or later (for Linux, install using your favorite package manager, for Mac OS X, I have a feeling we can include the allegro framework within the .app package, so you won't have to worry about anything. Windows users... I dunno, it might be as easy as Mac OS X, but I can't be sure so I won't say for now. I'll check and report back here in time.

We're also developing a whole new look for the application, and I hope to make the game more playable too.

Watch this space!
