oops some errors in this code.... replace line 12962 with
12962 input null : goto 50

i would really like to have access to the infocom text adventure engine to really develop this game in the style of hitchhikers guide to the galaxy
and of course the 3d pc version is being developed at
https://sourceforge....fquabbin/files/

Here is the first segment of source code of the game...
I would like some help developing the title screen (lines 12960 - 12969)

here is a beta concept for the pc version of ghosts of quabbin which will also be accompanied by the text adventure version which can be played along side or standalone from the pc 3d version.....

Right now the beta just includes the world (generated from a real usgs map of the quabbin reservoir in massachusetts)

give it a try, just download the exe and try it.
