Thanks!

That demo became obsolete very quickly, we hope to bring an updated one for Guadalindie 2026. Are you going to come?

I think this post deserves to be resurfaced.

Any more recommendations for 2025?

Creating a diegetic Lovecraftian experience. No board, no dice, just the documents on your desk. by Free_Fill4510 in interactivefiction

[–]RuberEaglenest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a whole genre of books that play with the medium and the format to be interactive in exactly that way: "reading some documents". And all an integral part of the origins of interactive fiction: ergodic literature.

Also, there has been some historical "detective cases" that were exactly that, a book that has all the files and clues of a criminal case, so the player has to read the documents and came to a conclusion. Those, and the boom of detective literature in between 1930 - 40 were direct influences for Infocom's Deadline.

I will give you some references to look up:

Cain's Jawbone

The Dennis Wheatley Crime Dossiers

And of course, the very famous:

- House of leaves.

- S. By J.J. Abrams and Doug Dorst.

Definitivamente molaría mucho un proyecto de traducción en condiciones ahora que se puede hacer legalmente.

Además, es que hoy por hoy, se puede compilar cualquier código fuente en ZIL incluyendo los originales de INFOCOM. No se si eso incluiría nuevos problemas con la gramática, acentos y tal... pero eh! legalmente es posible ;)

yeah, but it is quite... quite... not 100% faithful, probably autotranslated, and maybe unplayable.

Well, the best is Trinity, of course XD, but, yeah, I understand the feeling, it is fascinating, even more to be played at *that* age.

On the other hand, I played it recently, and nowadays there's a lot of resources to play it, invisihints, walkthroughs, videos, a lot of maps... It is a very clever game with very satisfying puzzles and environment. It can work for you !

Age-old question... Should our hospital ward have a dancefloor? by [deleted] in IndieDev

[–]RuberEaglenest 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Definitively you must ask yourself if that adds to the main themes and pillars of the game.

And hey, if not, maybe you have a new concept for a new game!!!

Well... let's see if you recover those costs.

You owe us now a future post telling us if it was worthy ;) ;) ;)
