Re: Upcoming brand-new Oric text adventure
Not a stupid question! For technical reasons (itch.io does not support/allow multilingual pages) I have it split as two pages, so that would be 2 purchases. That being said, I said publicly (on my twitter) a few days ago that if someone buys one and wants the other one too, they should contact me an...

Re: Upcoming brand-new Oric text adventure
Yes! I wasn't expecting Fabrice and Chema to put in more hours all those years later, but they did and it's awesome I didn't want to announce anything about Pinforic because it's not my place - my contribution was mostly cheering on the sidelines xD thank you Fabrice, Chema, and Dbug!

Re: Upcoming brand-new Oric text adventure
Hello! I'm happy to announce the full release of my text adventure "Tristam Island" for the Oric Atmos and Telestrat :D The game was made in the mold of Infocom interactive fiction, with a smooth parser and lots of puzzles (but no way to get locked out of victory); it should be around 7-10...

Re: Upcoming brand-new Oric text adventure
Nice! Starting up on two machines at the same time now: my C128D and my Oric Atmos. Was never much into text adventures myself as well, but am going to give this one a try when I have more time. Pre-ordered for now. PS: The Spectrum version works only on the +3 I see, so it won't work on my ZX Spec...

Re: Upcoming brand-new Oric text adventure
It looks cool !! I feel like Robinson Crusoe trying to survive in a desert place. Unfortunately, my english level is a bit too weak for me to feel confortable with this kind of text game. But I must admit it is attractive and seducing. It's the first time in my life that i play a text adventure gam...

Re: Upcoming brand-new Oric text adventure
One floppy for Pinforic, that you insert first, then you start pinforic; then you take it out, and you put in the floppy that contains the story file, and you hit a key. Pinforic puts the savegames on that floppy, with the story file.

Re: cataloguing tapes
Hi everyone, sorry for the necroposting... I'm interested in the "Games for Basic" book, and especially in the complete adventure game it features. From the name only, i'd guess it's "Riddle of the black chateau"? Does anyone have more information on the code? (A file with the so...
