Proposal: Ya know how cool an IF K7 game can be?
Hello to everyone, I'm new here but, being one of the grea-*test*-('") K7 italian fans (yeah, they exist), it's been quite a while that I follow the K7sindacate site; besides, excellent job, I congratulate with you all. I start asking forgivness for my mistakes with english, but there's something I-have-got-to-say. Do anyone know what IF (Interactive Fiction) is? An interactive fiction game is a type of game which became popular around 80s but disappeared as graphics engines developed and "cooler" games appeared; nowadays it's easy to obtain the programs that allow us to create a game in Inform Language (a pretty easy code). To make it sound clearly, an IF game is a game where you have this window, there's the picture, even the sounds if you want, the text with the description and so you have to write "look in the mirror" or "take the baseball bat" then "smash the baseball bat on the kid's head" (unfortunately the last one won't work) then read the following description and so go on with the story. I often write, and i usually use programs like rpgmaker, but when I encountered thoose games my eyes glared with blinding light, cause an IF game can combine the suspance of the raw text, of the story written in letters, with some physical and psycological violence pictures, just as we like. Actually I' don't have much time to spend studying this Inform Code, so my help could be only partial, but I think that a community of K7 fan can unite under this flag. For now, I'll link this italian community of Inform programmers where you can download two completed games: "Little Falls", and "Beyond" italian & english versions. (I personally suggest you "Little Falls" for sound and images, and "Beyond" for the great story). Let's hope something serious come out of this topic XP http://www.terradif.net/mc/games

Welcome, MwAh. If it is geared toward K7, it would actually be cool to do a text adventure/visual novel type game. I just don't have the patience required to build one, even though I could handle the artwork part. Music and sound effects wise, I think we can manage as well, considering the amount of Suda games sound material at our disposal.
