Classic Browser Adventuring Goes Open Source

Conrad Sheldon writes "Just a few days after the one year anniversary of its launch, 'adventure gaming engine in a browser' Good Old Adventures has gone open source. This means that you can now create your very own browser-running Sierra On-Line format AGI games, and incorporate them into your web site - it works with the alternative SCI-formatted games as well. With some more work on the open source code by developers, perhaps it will even support SCUMM and other engines some day. The possibilities are virtually endless. Let the adventures begin..." We previously featured this project earlier last year, and it should be noted the source "does not come with the multiplayer libraries, but it is the fully playable... singleplayer version of what is online here."

My favorite 404 Page Not Found error is a online PHP version of Zork.

More games as 404 errors here.

I remember when this first came out last February. Everyone was trying to get in, but I guess we overloaded the server. I finally got a chance to try it out though. It was like a glorified chat room. There wasn't much point to walking around since you couldn't do anything in the rooms. An inventory system, and a few quests would of been nice. It had a lot of potential though. Too bad it didn't last. Perhaps somebody will do something great with the source code.
