dmjohn0x Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Goodwork, I'll give these a test later tonight. Been a while since I played Journeyman Proj. Nice project! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 Logical Journey of the Zoombinis has now been added. I've also been working on a website for browsing/downloading these. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porl Hendy Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Thats a great website, looks like it could pass as a theme for bigbox 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmjohn0x Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 site looks great. Wixisite has come a long way with their building tools. My only suggestion would be a left and right arrow for navigating games as the little dots at the bottom of the page are too subtle. Otherwise, great work. Good to see you are passionate about this project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 Thanks! I've added some left and right arrows and I've made the dots a little bigger. If you're on mobile you can just swipe left and right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kondorito Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 LOVED the Zoombinis game when I was little! It was a disappointment though that after moving all of them to Zoombiland, there was no game ending. Highly recommended! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool, glad to hear it. I also added an Index section that has them all in a list for quick browsing. It also has a letter list on the right for jumping to the relevant letter - not a big deal now, but it'll come in handy later on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of those games that most people have probably never heard of, but if you come across someone who has they'll probably say "Ooooh! I remember that one! I loved it!" It's actually still a lot of fun, even as an adult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmjohn0x Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I'll have to check out Drowned God. Looks like one of those popular Myst clones from the mid 90s. I played many, but missed this one entirely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted February 20, 2018 Author Share Posted February 20, 2018 Yeah that's one that @Bobinator mentioned to me. I wasn't familiar with it at all. I'm assuming I'd skipped over of it in the past because it has an absolutely awful cover that looks super cheap and does not do it any favors whatsoever. The game itself seems fairly interesting though, albeit very... strange. The writing has been extremely weird so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmjohn0x Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 WTF @ThatCover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted February 20, 2018 Author Share Posted February 20, 2018 Yeah... I was sitting there looking at it thinking "What the hell am I supposed to do with this? How in the world am I going to salvage this?" So I started looking at any other art materials I could find for the game. The CD holder art is actually pretty good, so I went with that. I have no idea why they didn't do the cover art in this same style. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmjohn0x Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Yeah, that artwork is much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted February 20, 2018 Author Share Posted February 20, 2018 So I've been doing some experimenting and I'm able to replicate this process with Amiga games via FS-UAE. You install like you would anything else, then start a shortcut and the game fires right up. I've started assembling a list of potential titles for this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombeaver Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 Perihelion: The Prophecy has now been added. As far as I can tell there isn't any real box art for the game, so I had some fun with the cover. I used a screenshot from the introductory sequence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Namedos Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Zombeaver - If you are looking for suggestions, how about all of the X-Com games and then some of the Jane's simulators like Jane's Longbow 2 or Jane's AH-64D? I think this is a great idea and will really help people discover some great old games. Thanks for all your work! Between this and the PS2 plugin you are doing some great things for the community. Appreciate your time on these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
