A classic-style adventure ported
Posted: Tue Jun 26, 2007 12:32 pm
Hi all,
Thought this project might interest some folks around here. A friend of mine recently ported an old school text adventure we wrote for the C64 to the Z-machine. This means it's a little easier to run it. You need to get a Z-code interpreter for your platform, and this terp needs to handle Z-code version 6 story files. For Windows, I recommend Windows Frotz. On OS X, you could use Zoom. For Linux and most other platforms, you can use Frotz.
Here's info about the game - Sunburst Contamination: http://www.ifwiki.org/index.php/Sunburst_Contamination
Here's Windows Frotz: http://freespace.virgin.net/davidk.kinder/frotz.html
Here's Zoom: http://www.logicalshift.demon.co.uk/unix/zoom/
