Re: New Infinite Apocalpytic Procedural Ascii Game "The Wastes"
@Wastelander, cool you've written your own post appocalytpic story. Unfortunately where general fiction is concerned I prefer to read with an actual human narrator, but if you ever ancy doing podcast recordings of your book or have an audio version out let me know, ---- indeed I could review it for fantasybookreview.co.uk where I am one of their staff book reviewers.
Anyway Dinner at devients palace is awesome, publication details and links to buy can be found Here
It's one of my favourite post appocalyptic, along with justin Cronin's passage series, although cronin is very much zombocalypse, (or at least creature appocalypse sinse his zombies aren't really like the traditional variety).
One question about returning to your home town. What happens if you change regions? Is the town preserved and can you still go home whenever leaving a region?
Wh
at I'd suggest personally is that so long as you are in the same region as the town, you can go home when you finish that region, but if your in another region, to go home will take you one region to get back to.
To put this a little less confusingly, lets say my home town were in the spongebob desert. When i exit spongebob desert, I get the choice of which region to go to or whether to go back to my home town, which I could do instantly.
If however I decided to explore the candyfloss craters rather than go home, once I exited the crators, the game would say "your way back home takes you across the Rotgut ruins" and I'd need to complete those ruins in order to get back home, (and only by clearing those ruins, I couldn't exit early).
Of course theoretically I should have to go through the spongebob desert to get back to my home town, however having to go through the same region over and over again could be rather boring.
