I’ve been toying with an idea to create a text adventure…
It’d be after Orta. A spiritual sucessor of sorts. I’d like to keep it as abstract as the originals, so maybe I’d write it as a poem, like Paradise Lost (John Milton) or something. I draw quite a bit, so if my talents decide to kick up a couple notches or two I could incorporate some of my ideas if I feel they live up to the standards…
Man that is a good idea.I was going to do it once with my bro (he draws) but he couldn’t simply cause he was never home…
Well anyways welcome to the forums Lundi 
God luck 
That’s a great idea, I’m sure I speak for most of the people on this board when I say that. Text is a very effective means of conveying a story because it leaves a lot for the imagination.
I always thought the games were too visual for text to capture the feel.
N-o-t a-t a-l-l !
Jeez, lets hope not ><
Damn…that would be fun, wouldn’t it?

A few years ago when I first played Saga I made a QBASIC game based on it. It was a text adventure based on a character walking around on foot but unlike the games with a long build up to finally dragon riding. I never finished making the game but it was fun while it lasted.
Sounds cool. Maybe you could post what you finished of it?
I would but its on an old computer with resolution so low that when I load up windows (3.1) I can’t get anywhere from the desktop. I don’t think it’d be very long though. I remember on one of my QBASIC games I spent an entire afternoon just making some words scroll across the screen.
I love fooling around in Q and Apple BASIC.
I once made a QBASIC version of Candyland. It sucked.
Well, Candyland sucked, so that would be inevitable.
