Siboot

Siboot was game that I started working on part-time in January 2009. It was a port of Trust & Betrayal: The Legacy of Siboot using the Storytron technology that Chris Crawford had been developing since 1992 (all done with Chris’ permission). The goal was to release it in January of 2011. (I also created the wiki for the Storytron tutorials and documentation.)

On December 3rd, 2010 I suspended Siboot development because Chris “cancelled” Storytron (you can read more about it here). Here’s a video of the game at that time.

I had an old weblog that I originally used to chronicle my initial design and development. Here are links to some interesting posts on that site:
