<p>Escape From Briarwood Hospital is a point-and-click adventure work in progress, with graphics modeled after old computer interfaces and inspired by classic text adventure games. A dungeon crawler, it lets players explore the mind of someone trapped in the hospital, guided by an unreliable narrator—a chaotically benevolent computer called the "Watcher Who Waits." But things are not as they seem. Available soon for Mac and PC.</p><p>"I exist for the weary and the wounded." -Watcher</p>

If anyone is in the SF Bay Area, and hasn&#39;t visited the Computer History Museum, they have demos of the IBM 1401, punched cards and all. The guys running the demo were great. They let me shoot the demo with my super8 camera, and even let me type out my credits of my film and then shoot the printer printing them out. Check out the editing sequence. #retrocomputing

Game still in development, but thinking ahead to promoting it. I remember as a kid going to Egghead Software and seeing Zork and Rogue for sale there. So, I have some nostalgia for the store. I&#39;m planning on promoting the game the old fashioned way (at least partially)...in person. So, I made an Egghead store banner to hang up to catch people&#39;s attention. #retrocomputing #gamedev #interactivefiction #textadventures
