I gotta check this out more later. I'm still diggin' that C-64 & Vic-20 'Advetnture Games' feel. Where are my old 'Choose Your Adventure' books? Oh, I know! BBL.

Yep, I loved text adventure games. This was one of my favorites on our Atari 800XL -> http://gamingafter40.blogspot.com/2011/08/adventure-of-week-treasure-island.html

Same-same! 'Cept Hitchhiker's Guide and Leather Goddess were on C64. Pirate's Cove(?) and Adventure(?) on the Vic20 which was my first comp. I made one back then and submitted it to them (via cassette). It wasn't too long, but had animations and I called it "Indiana Jones and the Riddle of the Sphinx". I think they sent me a gift certificate for that Memory Cartridge for Vic-20. You can download all those somewhere.

Oh cool. Did you save your Indy Jones game? Do you still code adventures? :) I started learning programming again back in 2012 specifically so I could write text adventure. Was going to relearn BASIC but decided on C++ instead. Still haven't sat down and made a good TA yet - too many other things to do.

Same-same, man. That damned "too many things to do" never fails! Naw, my old C-64 & Vic-20's are long gone. I dunno if they ever published my "Indy" game. Never looked. It's lost to the ether as well. I've got a link "somewhere" to this page where you download ALL those games. Gotta run for now, dude... but I'll find it, cool? :)

Alright, they are/were called WinFrotzR53.zip and WinFrotz.exe OR CCS64.exe, BUT try to find a "safe download" one, yeah? Gotta get that 'other stuff done', ACK !!! ;)

Dammer... when ya think it's a bigger world than ya think, it's really always a smaller one, huh? That is really all good.
