[REQUEST] Libretro port (including RetroArch and more)
Will you please consider porting the OpenTomb game-engine into a Libretro (API) game core?
https://www.libretro.com/index.php/api/
This would allow us to use OpenTomb in frontends that supports Libretro such as RetroArch (Lakka, RetroPi (Emulation Station), and Kodi v18 (Leia) which all integrated support for the Libretro API which enables them to run game cores that have been ported to the Libretro API.
As a few examples pf similar ports you could look at OpenLara, Tyrquake, and prboom ports:
https://github.com/libretro/OpenLara
https://github.com/libretro/tyrquake
https://github.com/libretro/libretro-prboom
The OpenTomb team is small so the resources to port OpenTomb to a new API would only delay development. OpenLara was ported by libretro by the developers themselves. I would recommend contacting the libretro developers if you want them to port Open tomb to libretro. I'm not saying nobody will do it. It's just not priority right now.
