The official #DOSember Game Jam release of Quest for Erasmus is out. tacoadventure.itch.io/quest-for-er... Thanks to @thedeivore.bsky.social @invisiblespiders.com and slattstudio.com for making some of the screens for the game. The game is not complete yet and more is coming in the new year.

I've released a preview version of "Quest for Erasmus" on Itch. I'm still waiting on some artwork and I'm still working on the code, but I believe that the demo is playable from start to end. You can play in your browser or download it and play it with DOSBox. tacoadventure.itch.io/quest-for-er...

Hey all, I'm running a crowdfunding campaign for my point and click adventure, Midnight Saturn! 🥳 Check out the campaign page below! Support via PayPal or Patreon & unlock awesome rewards! 🤩👇 cosmicvoidonline.com/blog/news/20... DM me or email me & I’ll follow up with your rewards.

I've started working on a fan game based around the Quest for Glory series set around Erasmus' house in the original EGA game. I'm planning on use the same engine (SCI0) and I'm wondering if anyone would like to help make some art and rooms for this game. Happy to share my concept so far.

I have no doubt that this game is going to be amazing.

The Adventure Gamers site seems to have been gutted by a gambling firm which more or less cuts off another source of adventure gaming news. The @adventuregamedb.com (which I run) continues to provide information free from gambling's heavy influence.

Another game that I really look forward to playing just released!

The started "The 11th Hour" last night and the first puzzle kicked my butt. I understand how the pieces move in chess and the basic rules, but that pretty much where my knowledge of the game ends. I mean, what a way to start the game...

v1.0 of "King's Quest 1: Rubber Tree Edition" is up! Apply the mod here: denzquix.github.io/agi-patch/ You will need the files from the non-enhanced DOS version. The patched files will run in ScummVM under the "Fan AGI" option, or in DOSBox if you include other files from the original game folder.

If you like the classic Sierra style and want a new experience in a unique fantasy setting, play The Telwynium. www.adventuregamedb.com/g/the_telwyn...

I finished the second Deponia game "Chaos on Deponia" and there was a hefty dose of moon logic and puzzles that really just tried too hard to be unique and/or funny. Rufus is an awful character again, but the story is interesting, and I want to see where it goes.

I'm going to be starting the second game in the Deponia series, Chaos on Deponia, tonight on Twitch. The first game made me very annoyed with the main character, Rufus, and I hope that he is significantly less cringe in the following games. Any thoughts on the series?

A Fork in the Tale easily takes the crown as the worst adventure game that I've ever played. The writing was terrible, the game play was terrible, the acting was terrible, the comedy was cringe at best, and it had no redeeming qualities. Rob Schneider made it worse, not better.

Portal Reloaded is making my brain work extra hard. It is basically Portal with an extra time travel mechanic. If you liked Portal and what more, this is for you and it is free. (Though you need to own Portal 2.)

Dreamweb is a pretty unique adventure game from 1994 with a top-down style and interesting control mechanics. Have you anyone played it and what did you think of it? Would you have liked to see more adventure game in this style? www.adventuregamedb.com/g/dreamweb

The viewers and Regulus have decided that my next game will be The Crimson Diamond by @juliaminamata.bsky.social, which I'm very excited about. I played the demo, and I couldn't wait to play the full game. I'm going to start the Sunday at 8pm Eastern time!

Has anyone else played Star Trek Deep Space Nine: Harbinger? I have enjoyed every Star Trek adventure game that I've played up until this point. Its puzzles are bad, its action sequences are numerous and annoying, and the story, so far, is not gripping me at all.

At the Magic Kingdom today and stuck on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. It seems to be a right of passage to get stuck on this ride.

I think it would have been more entertaining to have a constantly empty place for Bort ones, but this is good too.

I'm leaving for vacation for a week going to Disney and Universal, so no streams until next Sunday. The cats seem to always know that something is up and keep trying to get in the suitcases.

#Jankuary is upon us and while my official time is scheduled for Thursday. The Crystal Skull might be even more janky than the game I did pick. Double the jank, double the fun?

This game looks pretty interesting and is currently on sale. store.steampowered.com/app/3392300/...

Is there anyone that likes The Legend of Kyrandia 3: Malcom's Revenge? I'm playing it for the first time, and it seems needlessly tedious. On another note, which one is your favorite Kyrandia game?

In 2024, I completed 89 adventure games in total. These games varied in length, the longest taking 43 hours to complete and the shortest taking 1 minute. Also in 2024, a total of 243 adventure games (and counting since I likely missed some) were released and added into my database.

I saved Santa after a crash, prevented Santa from dying from hypothermia after another crash, and "solved" a New Year Murder Mystery (after everyone died) on stream last night. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone. I hope that you all have the best day you can have! 🎄🎅

Tonight, I'm going to be in full #DOSember mode as we play a fan-made AGI Christmas game "Save Santa." I hope every has a wonderful holiday.

The longest game that I have played on my quest now sits at 43 hours after completing Danganronpa 2 on Thursday. I didn't like many if its story telling methods which involved heavy use to repeating things over and over again, and characters playing dumb so that I could come up with an answer.

I'm not going to be working my regular job for 2+ weeks due to winter recess and I'm not sure what I'm going to do with myself.

The Holiday season means holiday Lego sets.

I finished the Time Quest Demo from back in 2001 last night for #DOSember and learned that @shdon.com was working on resurrecting this game and getting it to completion. It is one of the best AGI games I've even played! www.adventuregamedb.com/g/time_quest...

Does any one know of any good holiday themed adventure games?

My favorite part about streaming, is playing games that I likely never would have played before I started. Because of it, I've discovered some amazing games and got to experience all of them with my community. This includes classics, like The Dig, to obscure games and some pretty awful one.

I've added all of the #AdvXJam2024 submissions to @adventuregamedb.com along with games from many of the creators that I had previously missed. The database is now totaling over 6,200 games! We aren't done with 2024, but the total as far is 231 games for the year and I'm certain I've missed lots.

My first game in #Dosemeber was a DOS AGI game that I found in the @adventuregamedb.com. It was unexpected and eerily enjoyable despite being more murder focused than expected.

My #DOSember presence is going to be a bit different this year. I'm going to be playing short, likely obscure DOS games between my other adventure game content. I hope it will be a good time for all.

Thanksgiving and the holiday season isn't the easiest time of the year for some people, so remember not to force holiday cheer on people that are having a hard time. Show love and compassion instead. Thanks.

I use the bits from my Twitch stream to help fund adventure games and this is a game that I just put some bits into. I hope that it gets funded. It is SO close! www.kickstarter.com/projects/tor...

I created and also maintain The Adventure Game Database, which contains over 6,000 adventure games of various length and type. You can follow @adventuregamedb.com for a random daily adventure game.

Hero-U has some quality jank, but overall, I'm enjoying the experience. www.twitch.tv/tacoadventur...

Another game to look forward to! It looks wonderful.

In my journey cataloging adventure games, there was one game "Soul Crystal" that popped out to me as very intriguing. At the time it was only available in German. Today, I learned that the C-64 version of the game has been fully translated into English. www.adventuregamedb.com/g/soul_crystal

I'm excited about #AdvXJam2024. I love all of the short, creative games that come out of these jams every year and playing the entries never fails to bring joy to myself and the people that join me during the journey. Thank you everyone the participates.

Wait, what!?!

I made this chair ready for Claire and she immediately decided to use it. It is cold outside and this is the warmest room in the house. Also there is a pineapple.

Loco Motive by @robustgames.bsky.social looks pretty cool. It just released today and extends on a proof-of-concept Game Jam entry from 2020.

I've changed my handle here and I'm planning to use @tacoadventure.bsky.social exclusively for live notifications and automated YouTube video announcements. If you'd like to get those, feel free to follow that account.
