Hello all,

I am curious if there is a viable option to play Diablo 2 on Linux. I have a RetroPie setup for my kid and was wondering if I could show him diablo 2.

Abyss Engine clean-room reimplementation of Diablo 2, written in C. The goal is to recreate the original game engine, but on a portable platform that can also easily be modded and extended.

Oh that's really cool. I didn't know people were doing that for non-console games.
