Rollercoaster Tycoon has joined the chat.
Compared with any modern codebase that's still tiny.
From what I can see Rollercoaster Tycoon was hand-written by a single person, so it by definition cannot be huge.
I wish that the code was open source, because it'd be super interesting to be able to look under the hood of a game like Rollercoaster Tycoon
It kinda is. Assembly is a 1:1 machine-code equivalent, so you just have to run the game through a disassembler and you get the "source". You just dont get the documentation.
