Liero was created by Joosa Riekkinen in 1999 for DOS. Since then, there have been plenty of conversions and similar games made, but the original has never made the transition to Windows… UNTIL NOW. (I’ve always wanted to say that.)
Open Liero is technically not a real port of the original game, since the source code was lost many years ago. Rather, it’s a hack that allows you to play Liero in Windows (or Linux), in a window, with the sound support the original was missing. In order to run Open Liero, you must have the original Liero files in the same directory.
Open Liero is still in development, so it’s not fully featured, although it is fully playable. Most but not all of the existing total conversions are supported already.
Good news for Liero fans! (Thanks, basara!)
