The standard joystick should work, but not Jaguar pad.

The CT60 version is a port of the Jaguar version of Alice, which itself is a hack of my own PC/Android game library which is in C / OpenGL.
For the Falcon framework, I use my own system available here

The Jaguar version was a big challenge because I had to convert all in 256 colors and hack my game library to make it work on Jaguar, the CT60 port was pretty straight forward, because I just had to rewrite the sprite/tilemap engine in assembly, and the CT60/Firebee is fast enough to make it playable at 30fps, I guess that a stock Falcon port should be feasible but would require much much work with use of specific falcon hardware (blitter/hardscroll).

No, I use a lots of graphics & musics from

(I really enjoy old school RPGs most!)
I guess it can be done

I just need to finish it first, I'm at 50% of the game, and almost 6 months of full time work already :/
