Re: Programmed Adventure Editor
I seem to recall reading somewhere that the old Fighting Fantasy books were set to have exactly 400 "nodes" (using your term; they probably called them something else). I don't have any of them in front of me to check, though. In fact, I think the only ones I still have are The Warlock of Firetop Mountain and the 4-volume Sorcery! series (plus the Spellbook), and I'm not sure where those are all buried.

If I recall, they worked on a similar principle to the Ace Of Aces combat books, no? I remember playing that one ages ago, fun concept. |

Re: Programmed Adventure Editor
This is awesome! I'm considering writing my first one of these so the timing is perfect. With the help of the TFT Discord group, we put together a list of TFT-related links. I'd like to add this to the PDF file.

That was actually my original plan for the program. It was going to be more of a straight web-forms thing written in PHP that would kick out a linked HTML file. It was once I got into developing Shamat that I realised I could do a more graphical application. But HTML output is still a good idea, so I think I'll circle back on that as an option too. Cheers! |

Re: Programmed Adventure Editor
I'm a big fan of programmed adventures, and I think this will really help my efforts in writing them. Thank you!

Re: Programmed Adventure Editor
I have a feeling this app would be ideal for creating a digital play aid for the Ambush series of board games (published by Victory Games) and other board games with a similar mechanism (e.g. Barbarian Prince, Tales of the Arabian Nights).

Re: Programmed Adventure Editor
Some Dwarfstar games are officially available for folks to print their own copy.
