Sceptre of Shalimar is presently undergoing a massive redesign/rewrite (as of December 2013).

At some point in the future, when the game is at a point where it is playable, I will put up some screenshots and a playable demo download. Until then, there is little here to see.

The old versions of the game, which are no longer available for download, were classic 2D tile-based Role Playing Games (similar to the early versions of the Ultima series, Final Fantasy, Dragon Warrior, and other classic RPGs).
These old versions were very unfinished games. Many functions didn't work and there were only the most rudimentary pieces of a storyline and/or quests. They ran in MS DOS and required an Emulator (such as DOS BOX) to get them to run on a modern PC. Even then, there were problems, some of them due to actual bugs in the compilers I was using, and others due to minor programming oversights on my part. I've finally "thrown in the towel" on these old versions, and decided to start over completely.
