The Faery Tale Adventure: A personal history of making a video game

(1/2) > >>

mouser:
Nice 3 part article about the early days of personal computer game making..

The Faery Tale Adventure was a computer game that I created for the Amiga in 1987. It was moderately popular for it’s day, and was ported to a number of platforms, including MS-DOS and the Sega Genesis.  I decided to write this account because, much to my surprise, there is still interest in the game — I occasionally get fan email or inquiries as to whether there will ever be a sequel. And so I thought it might be interesting to tell the story of how the game came to be, and what happened afterwards.

mouser:
ha!

Deozaan:
Interesting story. I've never heard of him, or his game, or any of the other people or games he mentioned.

But I may have heard of some of the tools he made (Musica, Tiled, Anima). Either that, or other people made similar tools with the same or similar names.
