Hi all,

I was sorting through some boxes in the attic when I came across a load of 'choose your own adventure style' books - I used to love these and I think it was really my first exposure to narrative gaming (in the first few years of the 90s before I got my Amiga with a copy of Lure of The Temptress.)

There was quite a variety, like the Lone Wolf books (which were played with dice like a more RPG) to others which you were just presented with a decision to make.

with a quick google search I can see they're still being made - I always thought they were a 80s thing!

Just wondered if anyone else had memories of these?  Do any titles stand out to you and what made a 'good' one...

Hi,

We're looking for an artist to assist with some simple graphics for a mini game within our Adventure (non commercial) - The idea being it's an 80s style Arcade Game interact with and play.

The minigame will be a simple 5 level RPG with a Dragon Quest/Pokemon aesthetic and turn based combat.

I'm bored of looking at the placeholder graphics So we're looking for about 15 characters designing, (mostly fantasy i.e. Trolls & Zombies) each with:

a close up 'combat view' - 2 Frames of different poses at 100 X 100 pixels in 2 colours (White & Black) - Google the characters for 'Undertale' for general look, but obviously without the comedic look.
a map view - 2 frames of different poses at  20 X 20 pixels think Dragon Quest style (these can be in limited colours)

Timescale is around 3-4 months.

If anyone's interested could you please PM me.
