Guest fraggle` Posted August 15, 2000 the more strange among you may find these screenshots interesting, just something i rattled off in a spare half hour but amusing nonetheless: http://fraggle.alkali.org/img/textdoom.png http://fraggle.alkali.org/img/textdoom2.png http://fraggle.alkali.org/img/textdoom3.png http://fraggle.alkali.org/img/textdoom4.png The funny thing is that it's actually surprisingly playable - its difficult to tell what the framerate is because its impossible to read the console text but its definitely above 35 fps on my machine. And yes, before anyone asks, I am supposed to have quit doom. So sue me :) 0 Share this post Link to post

Jon Posted August 15, 2000 Fraggle- can you recode the doom menus and console display to use ASCII chars in text mode? That would rock. A lot. :) 0 Share this post Link to post

But Doom!!!!!! not really... text adventures are where you type in text commands etc. to control how you move around the adventure world, This uses the Pc's text mode (as opposed to graphics mode which is normally used for games) to draw the screen. 0 Share this post Link to post
