So in the spirit of this community and not just to focus on the Reddit… issues… I thought it might be nice to get a topical conversation going in here.

Basically, what open source projects are you currently working on or are you heavily involved with?

I think it would be nice to see what projects people have on the go, get some publicity out there and otherwise talk about stuff that we should be discussing here.

    Haha that’s amazing! Integrated bingo! Death markers! 😂 And you just gave me an incredibly dumb idea. How about a SCUMM engine randomizer? 😂

      I’ve thought a lot about doing a randomizer for Groovie engine games, mostly The 7th Guest, but I can’t really think of a way to make it fun or interesting, the whole game is video files so it’s not very flexible

      a SCUMM game might work, some items could definitely be swapped around, but idk if it would amount to much cause there wouldn’t be a ton of permutations possible

        I don’t know enough about the SCUMM engine to know if this even makes any kind of sense, but could you randomize NPCs/connections between locations?
