It was made in Clickteam Fusion. :) Ooh, BBS was before my time - like Trade Wars, right? I was mainly inspired by Infocom and PC-88 adventure games.
Do you do requests for games sorta like your last two? Small games that would be in a jam style. Also, why multimedia fusion? Is there a ASCII text or text book object that makes this easier?
BTW: Usurper (my fav. ASCII game from that era is here to play https://serionbbs.com/usurper-info)
I'm too busy to take requests right now, sadly. :(
There's no reason for Fusion, it's just what I've used for years. The text is just an IBM VGA font, no special object. There's nothing authentic about it, I just superficially made it look like an old ASCII game.
I imagine using an engine like Twine or Quest would probably have been easier, but I'm not familiar with them.
I'll check out Usurper!
