18.04.2021 - New text adventure game 'Silk Dust' in development for C64/C128/Amiga/VIC-20/Plus4/PET (...and even more platforms)
'Silk Dust' will be the third chapter of the adventures of Emilia Vittorini, after 'Two Days to the Race' and 'The Queen's Footsteps'. The game is currently in a quite advanced beta testing stage, so the developer is particularly interested in getting feedback about typos and bugs. If you find a 'hunt the verb' situation, he can probably improve it, too. Download is completely free.
