I'm sorry didn't we just do this? It hasn't even been a week since the last batch of publishing and the queue is already well into the double digits again! This brings the total number of files published in the shortest month of the year to 38. I didn't realize February was such a busy month for ZZT! It turns out a mixture of unpreserved worlds being streamed and a surprising amount of new titles being released makes for quite a bit of publishing.
“Jennifer Janowski is Doomed” by Anna Anne Anthropy (2022)
Featured Reviews
- Featured World: Jennifer Janowski is Doomed by Dr. Dos
Program Description
Jennifer Janowski visits the abandoned Sallow house. Can she escape with her life? Or is Jennifer Janowski doomed?
First we have Anna Anthropy's new game running on WiL's WeaveZZT fork. It looks gorgeous, and plans are already in motion to stream it this Friday.
“Ezanya Remastered” by Beth Daggert, RT-55J (2022)
Speaking of looking gorgeous, we have a remaster of the 1991 ZZT world creation competition winner Ezanya, made with full blessing of the original author. I suspect this takes an early classic and tweaks the numbers to not demand borderline perfect play to get through without cheating!
“BUYSO (v1.2)” by RT-55J (2022)
Program Description
A Simple Christmas Shopping Simulator
An update to the Christmas gift shopping game BUYSO, now with its own modified ZZT. New items are available for purchase, and your inventory is now displayed in the sidebar at all times, a feature entirely missing from these screenshots!
“Airport of ZZT Demo '22” by Agent Orange (2022)
A demo that remains a demo! Newly revised with a few new boards added.
“The Land of Where? (early)” by he_the_great (2000)
An earliler revision of a game about escaping from "Where". Looks very classically ZZT.
“Pokémon: Pikachu's Big Adventure” by MAkev, ScoutDark, SkyWalkRo (1999)
Pikachu is off to save Ash and Misty from Team Rocket! This involves thundershocking every Raichu you see and using charmanders for torches. Love it.
“Pickachu Shootout” (2003)
Maybe Pokemon bad??? In that case, shoot bullets and missiles at them until they turn into red fakes. That'll teach em'.
“The Legend of Pikachu: Pokeflute of Time: Part 1” by SkyWalkRo (1999)
By combining Ocarina of Time, Pokemon, and Final Fantasy 7 into a single game, we get art. Save the world from Ganondorf, and get rejected by women.
“The Legend of Pikachu: Pokeflute of Time: Part 2” by SkyWalkRo (1999)
I... didn't stream part two yet but wanted to upload it. The world of the future looks very similar to the original, but now you're a Raichu!
