SkiFree: C reconstruction of version 1.04

This project reconstructs the 32-bit SkiFree version 1.04 in C. It was developed with Visual Studio 6 and aims to be byte-compatible with the original. The README says all code and data have been converted to C, and exact matching of every function and data segment is still open.
