Monthly Post!

First and happily the release of the final, complete, and hopefully bug free I Spy Baby Dragons! It is a mysterious and difficult point-and-click I Spy adventure. Bring your sword! I will be adding a trailer and walkthrough for it soon.

An Unexpected Party

The memorization games have been delayed in entering Beta stage, though they are very close, and two other seasonal projects have reached completion instead! The first is a Party Cluedo game that was made in celebration of my brother Josiah’s twentieth birthday.

Invitations are sent out, and all come as detectives or one of the eight Suspects.

In the shared DropBox folder are all the cards, instructions, backstories, and the pieces to put together the invitations you will need, in PDF and ODT file format which you can download.

The icons were drawn by my brother Nathaniel, and a lot of us worked on the backstories.

I hope this comes in handy some festively mysterious day!

Elijah and Elisha

Last and not the least, a three minute audio drama of the passing of the spirit of Elijah to Elisha, the fiery chariot, the whirlwind, and the parting of Jordan.

It was made by me and my brother Nathaniel, and he drew the Picture for it. We used sound effects from Freesound.org mainly, a very good resource. This was a shorter project, but turned out better than we expected!

Taking Up the Mantle

We will be going up to the Creation Conference in Athlone soon, and I am hoping to give a copy of my book Jorgan the Sphere to Ken Ham!

God be with you all!

Coming and Going in Beta – Monthly Post

Monthly Post!

I have been starting to try improvements on the site (which clearly needs them). Any advice or information from my kind friends would be greatly appreciated! I am also making progress on some Twine adventures that will be going out of and coming into the beta testing phase.

Going out of Beta

The current beta project, I Spy Baby Dragons, will hopefully very soon leave the beta stage. It is a point-and-click adventure in which you must find objects, culminating in the finding of the Baby Dragon. Clickable areas may be things to find, or may take you places, or may block a sword attack (or broom attack, as the case may be). You can look in your hat to see what you have so far.

If you would like to beta test the most recent version, the link is below. Let me know if something seems broken or incomplete, or if it is boringly easy or boringly difficult!

Wah! Where is my picture? It was a nice one...

Coming into Beta

There is also a twin pair of adventures, involving the memorization of bywords or “songlets” to fend off evil things on the way through a dark forest. If you get even a punctuation mark wrong and try to go past the monster, you will have only seconds to get back to where you learn your words.

One game is called Into the Forest, in which you must recover a stolen treasure from the depths of the forest. One of the enemies you face is shown below.

The second one is called Out of the Forest, in which you have been rescued from an evil kidnapper by a frog, and must now make your way back home. One of the places you must get through is shown below.

That is all I can think of at the moment; have a good month! Till next time, God be with you all!
