In case anybodys interested, here is a excellent article on bit-tech.net
http://www.bit-tech.net/gaming/2007/10/08/how_to_write_an_adventure_game/1

about the making of adventure games.
There are 6 pages (sections)to this article .

What was really great was a couple pictures of a new Adventure or as the story put it, "a new mature and dark adventure game" called "Heavy Rain" that were really nice.


Take Care ,
patchman

An interesting read! He does seem to think that there are only fan websites for older adventure games, which I find a bit strange.

Yeah that "Cliche" is in there...But the last line in the article says it all..."with quality titles like those to look forward to, the genre seems to be very alive after all"

I was just watching the "casting call/trailer" of Heavy Rain. Different that's for sure. laugh
