Following clarification over the copyright status of some of the games on our original
Interactive Fiction CD-ROM produced solely for the Sinclair QL market, we have
withdrawn this from the market. We are now compiling a new collection of Interactive
Fiction on CD-ROM which will be made available to both users of the Sinclair QL
and users of Windows based PCs.
All items will be provided with the express permission of the copyright holders and distributed
as charityware (otherwise known as careware). This means that we guarantee to pay at least
two-thirds of the sale price to chosen children's charities. The remainder will
cover advertising and production fees.
At present, it is envisaged that the adventures will all be in either the popular ZCode
format (which can be used with the assistance of a suitable ZCode interpreter on many
different machines), or in Glulxe format. Windows and Sinclair QL interpreters will be
included on the CD-ROM.
There are quite a few authors who have already agreed to add their works to this CD-ROM, although we are also attempting to persuade some other
authors to contribute. The authors who have kindly agreed to include their works, include:
Scott Adams
Adam Cadre
Harry Hol
Emily Short
Prof. Peter D. Killworth (of Doom fame)
Paul O'Brian
If you are willing to allow your adventure to be included on this CD, please contact
us.
