    Oh great and powerful Internet Netizens, hear my plea! I’m working on a game. A point and click game. A murder mystery game. Starting with a script with an embedded player decision tree. The script reads much like a choose your own adventure book. I wonder - would morphing it into a choose your own adventure book when I ask for peer reviews. Do people think that would be more palatable than a script full of forking decision tree notes? It feels like it would. #game #design #adventure #script

    I joined the RIFA smoking club this weekend. Took some #Macintosh computers to our #LAVCC meetup Saturday. And reveled in the smell of burning plastic and sadness.

    I feel a similar vibe with the vintage computer hobby. And in a different way. Our greatest challenge will be a scarcity of original components followed by the art and craftsmanship dying off. It is critical that we inspire the next generation, or it dies with us. https://youtu.be/c8svUszBVxo?is=I0b2oTpsViwc8n0e

    Playing around with alternative opening scenes for my game. The protagonist in the opening scene compares a crowd of people boarding a train at a station to a European Starling murmuration. The music is &amp;quot;Our Story Begins&amp;quot; from the prolific Kevin MacLeod. The video is cut from several CC videos. I&amp;#39;m using Ren&amp;#39;Py to prototype the game while simultaneously building the game in HyperCard. Several HyperCard for Ren&amp;#39;Py developer blog posts and/or videos may...

    Train enthusiasts hear my plea! As some of you know, I’m writing the script for a point-and-click game. I am looking for descriptions of vintage train experiences from the 1890s. As an analogy, commander Scot makes a comment to Picard in an episode of TNG that he “could tell the warp speed from the vibration in the deck plates” on the original Enterprise.
