“The Secret Chronicles of Dr. M.” is a 2D sidecrolling platform game, with a rich set of graphics, music, and an advanced level editor that allows you to create your own levels. The level editor allows for in-game scripting so there are no borders apart from your imagination.
The project is a fork of SMC, which is not developed actively anymore. Note this is not merely a continuation of SMC, but we have our own goals and design principles we are slowly integrating into both the codebase and the artwork.
Releases are published precompiled for Windows at the website. If you want to compile TSC yourself, please see the INSTALL.md file.

Any contributions to the code, the graphics, the music, etc. are greatly appreciated. However, before starting your work on the game, please consider the following:
- You have to be familiar with at least the basics of using the Git version control system. This can be achieved by reading the first two chapters of this great online Git book. Also reading chapter 3 is highly recommended as we use branches all the time.
- If you want to contribute code, please read the coding conventions document
- If you want to contribute artistic work, please read the styleguide
- If you specifically target issues from the issue tracker, please use “fixes #43” for bug tickets you fix and “closes #43” for other tickets you resolve as part of the message in your commits. This causes GitHub to automatically close the corresponding ticket if we merge your changes.
Custom local configurations are provided for Emacs and ViM. In order for local ViM configurations to work, you will need the localvimrc plugin, which can be installed with the following command on most Bourne-compatible shells:
mkdir -p ~/.vim/plugin && cd ~/.vim/plugin && https://raw.githubusercontent.com/embear/vim-localvimrc/master/plugin/localvimrc.vimTSC is a two-dimensional jump’n’run platform game.
