Re: [Audyssey] Lovecraft

[Cara Quinn]

Hi Dark,

thanks very much.

Yes, Shadow Horror stood out to me as being a good candidate but the reviews 
were saying it was pretty buggy. So it’s nice to know that that may not still 
be true and that it is worth checking out.

As for Bodies, I have actually played that one about ten years ago and was not 
sure it was even still around. Perhaps I will revisit it and give it a play. I 
don’t think I’d ever finished it. It’s been a while so perhaps it will be fun 
to check it out again.

Thanks for the other suggestion as well. I will definitely look for it.

I wonder what creating a story for the COG /HG peeps entails. Perhaps one might 
need to be written in a Lovecraftian style. ;)

Have a great weekend!

Cheers!

Cara

Shadow horror is worth a try though for general creeipiness and a great monster 
as well as multiple endings and puzzles.

If you want something directly lovecraftian, go to the fighting fantasy project 
site and try bodies in the dock by James Osborn, which is set in the thirties 
and very much in the mythos.

From that site, Devil's flight, though it is a scifi game set aboard an 
abandoned colony space ship also uses lovecraftian ideas, for example it has a 
madness scale that goes more extreme the more paranormal creatures you 
encounter.

Hth.

Re: [Audyssey] Lovecraft

Hi Cara.

there are a couple of horror themed games in the Cog/hg offerings, 
particularly "the shadow horror" under hosted games, however there isn't 
anything directly set in the Cthulhu lovecraft mythos yet to my knolidge.


Shadow horror is worth a try though for general creeipiness and a great 
monster as well as multiple endings and puzzles.


If you want something directly lovecraftian, go to the fighting fantasy 
project site and try bodies in the dock by James Osborn, which is set in the

Hi All,

There is a plethora of ChoiceOf and Hosted Games. I am a fan of H.P.

If you are a beta tester for Kid Friendly Software, should you be letting

Re: [Audyssey] Lovecraft

[dark]

Hi Cara.

Well  I've played shadow horror and didn't notice any bugs, maybe the 
reviews were posted of an earlier version? It's a little odd as far as Cog 
games go, because basically it's almost more like an if title in cog with 
lots of objects to interact with.
I also like the way the descriptions are fairly plane, then suddenly you hit 
nightfall and bam! everything goes ultra surreal and freaky. Not literally 
lovecraftian, but a good bit of horror writing with a nice point and good 
replay, you can even replay with the writer's commentary.


To write Cog/hg games, you just need to write them in the Choice script 
language. This isn't a programming languageas such, it's a scripting 
language letting you defign sections, choices, what choices go where, defign 
stats and variables and how they are affected by choices and tested etc.
It looked fairly easy going as languages go, you can find out all about it 
under the "make your own games" section of www.choiceofgames.com, indeed 
their hosted games range are just that, games written by guest authors and 
published, but not directly under the choiceofgames line, which is why the 
hosted games tend to range in quality, although generally I've noticed a 
very high level of quality control among the cog/hg games.


So all this is to say, if you want to give choice script a go, feel free, a 
Cthulhu mythos game sounds great!


As to ffproject, if you've not been on there for a while it might be worth a 
look, they come out with new books occasionally, most recently last week 
with golem gauntlet (which I have not yet played but looks cool).


Beware the grue!

Dark.
