Is the achewood text adventure still in the works?  I haven't seen any mention of it in over a year now.  Are you writing it yourself, Chris, or have you hired someone?

I am super excited by the idea of this project.

You are in a maze of twisty punchlines, all of them alike.

It is dark in here. You are likely to be criticized by a Jough.

I hope CJ realizes how rad it is that his name is now a verb that is on par with "googled" among this crowd.

CJ, I salute you.

Nah, I just searched the board before posting to make sure there wasn't a recent thread about it.

Yes, my code guy has made an editor and I'll start piecing it together this spring/summer. The objective will be to get Lyle to dialysis despite many obstacles, and it will be impossible to win. There will be a hidden .bmp of Samantha Fox with a top on.

Actually on that note, is it possible to detox quickly by having dialysis? Can one recreationallly dialyze to lower one's triglycerides and such? If so it may be rather cool to get a home dialysis machine and install a catheter. It would also cut down on the need to Pee, right? Why isn't it a solution for truckers who can't go to the bathroom? You could even have the dialysis machine hooked into the truck itself and have its pump driven by the fan belt.

Text adventures that are actually impossible to win are totally non-rad. Text adventures that are merely fanking difficult to win, though, are wholly excellent.
