- melbourne_mat 4y agoSaw the big, hard to exit pop-up and clicked away :-(
- unsafecast 4y agoIt's annoying, but to be fair, there's a pretty visible 'let me read it first' button. Not so bad.
- shaggie76 4y agoFirefox Reader View came in handy here; I actually prefer its formatting too.

- teddyh 4y agoIt starts by describing a 2018 game “Hibernated”, and likens it to Infocom games, but neglects to mention that the description of “Hibernated” is very similar to the classic Infocom game “Suspended” from 1983.
- lproven 4y agoThis game? http://gallery.guetech.org/suspended/suspended.html http://gallery.guetech.org/suspended/suspended.html If so, we have different definitions of "very similar". I'd call that a vague resemblance.
- teddyh 4y agoYes, that one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suspended_(video_game) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suspended_(video_game) Well, I have not played either game, so I can only go by how they were described. The box art was also similar.
- adamrezich 4y agoI've dabbled with Inform 6 and 7 on and off over the years and I had no idea that the latter produced z-machine games that were slower to run on limited hardware than the former! why is that? I thought that the syntactic differences between the Inform versions was purely on the authorship side, and that the z-machine output was more or less the same?
- jhbadger 4y agoAre you sure that you were comparing z-machine outputs in both cases? Inform 7 can output z-machine code, but is geared mostly to produce Glulx (another virtual machine with fewer limitations, but slower) output.
- adamrezich 4y agointeresting, I thought it defaulted to z-machine for some reason; it's been awhile
