Aerofoil is intended to be primarily a straight port, retaining most of the look and feel of the original.
Planned additions:
- 32-bit color support (mainly matters for houses that have higher-resolution PICT resources)
- Resolution changes while the game is running
- Bring back the gray-to-color intro fade that was removed in later versions
- Gamepad support
