Integers. You could almost emulate a PSX in a potato (Pentium MMX) with -ffast-math -O3 except for Alpha channel (transparencies) in textures.

Every language has his own name for tons of places. In Spanish it's Zaragoza and in English "Saragossa". Ditto with Londres/London.

Good. Get either SBCL or CCL for it. As for the editor, on modern 64 bit machines, trying setting up either Mine or Lem. On legacy 32 bit ones, Emacs+Slime+SBCL/CCL.

Also I'd love an Alan Wake PSX demake with the Resident Evil portview engine/graphics (easier, it has a WIP port for Scummvm) or the Parasite Eve one, which are really close. PE 1 used the FFVIII one I guess. Alan Wake in that sty
