• New Amiga Door Game!

    From Anachronist@80:774/8 to All on Fri Mar 30 23:06:11 2018
    We've just released the first public beta of the first Amiga door game
    in nearly 20 years at aBSiNTHE BBS! Come play ~27 classic Tunnels & Trolls solo adventures, keeping the same character throughout! Other features such
    as the Arena module and more are included. If you have your save file from
    the PC Tunnels & Trolls: Crusaders of Khazan, upload your file to me and you can continue your party right here on the BBS. If you haven't visited us before, get ready for a BBS that's likely different than any other one you've visited. It's also home to Green Dragon RPGBBS, a BBS/RPG hybrid that's available from the Main Menu.
    Tunnels & Trolls is a BETA release and is not complete. For starters, it lacks a More (Y/N)? prompt so you will have to make heavy use of your terminal's scrollback feature. In addition, some things are unimplemented
    and there is still a lot of pen & paper specific text left in that you will
    not need. More notes are displayed upon game load.

    Our New User process is absurd and way too long. This will be changed
    soon. Bear with it, it's worth the time. See you there :)

    There have been many, MANY updates to Tunnels & Trolls over at aBSiNTHE BBS! The game now features scroll pause, wordwrap, and countless bugs have been fixed. The combat now incorporates ranged options, and the adventures that required printed maps now have Amiga Topaz versions viewable from inventory! The Arena has been overhauled...there are too many changes to list. It's also live on Reign of Fire BBS. If you run a BBS and are interested in hosting Tunnels & Trolls, get in touch with me! I hope to see some of you here :) n1c6aceNACHRONc6iceST cd| c2acaBSc2icaNTHE BBSc6

    Are these (WWIV style?) color codes that are getting borked? In the FSE re-write I'm doing (er, well should get back to) on ENiG I'm supporting ANSI, pipe codes, and will put in WWIV, PCB, probably some Sync support, and others if they are out there and being used.

    Okay I thought it was just me and something got messed up.

    It was good to see you check it out earlier! It has a lot of depth. Also, it's hard as !@#$% and unfair since the adventures were designed in the 70s and 80s so patience is needed haha.

    Yeah those are Amiga CNET MCI color codes, our version of pipe codes. I'll put together a translation table of what codes are what, if you supported these on ENiGMA that would be badass. You'd probably be the first honestly! n1c6aceNACHRONc6iceST cd| c2acaBSc2icaNTHE BBSc6

    Sweet, yeah if you can provide the infos, it won't be that hard to add the support to ENiG amongst the others I'm putting in. I'm happy to do it!
