new projects and releases: text and graphic adventures • Text Adventure Conversions

In subsequent posts, I'll be adding games I've ported from elsewhere to my "Quill adjacent" (still working on the name) interpreter. See viewtopic.php?t=29567 for my rambling notes on the development process. This interpreter tries to mirror how the original Spectrum Quill interpreter works to make porting games from that platform more automated. The BBC Quill interpreter has some differences in the logic.

In general, there are three builds for each game (memory permitting). I would recommend playing the Master 128 versions as that's what I'm really writing for. The Model B with 2nd processor build allows use of different display modes. For games which will fit in a vanilla 32Kb Model B, only mode 7 is supported.

In general, you can change display mode in game and I've added RAM save/load features, which given the sudden death in some of these old games, might be worth using.

All these ports are unofficial and of course, if anyone objects, they will be taken down.

Games

Artic Adventure A - Planet Of Death
Artic Adventure B - Inca Curse
Artic Adventure C - Ship Of Doom
Artic Adventure D - Espionage Island
Aural Quest

(this is a placeholder, it will be edited a few times today as I add ported games)
