- DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE CLASSIC EDITION AND THE MASTER'S EDITION OF AGT
-
- The "Classic Edition" (i.e., the normal/old/regular version) of AGT is very
- simple to use and can be used by programming novices or even by
- non-programmer's to create very professional text adventures similar to those
- from firms like Infocom. Versions of the "Classic Edition" are available for
- IBM, Macintosh, Atari ST and Amiga computers and games created on any of these
- computers can be re-compiled and played on any of the other computers. The
- Classic Edition is still supported and available from Softworks as Shareware
- for only $20 (or $40 including a 223 page printed manual with lots and lots of
- detailed examples).
-
- The "Master's Edition" contains all the features and capabilities of the
- "Classic Edition" plus a whole lot more. It is totally compatible with the
- Classic Edition and games originally developed for the Classic Edition can be
- easily converted to and used with the Master's Edition. The Master's Edition
- is available only for IBM (or compatible) computers. The Master's Edition is
- aimed at the more sophisticated and experienced programmer/game designer. The
- Master's Edition allows you to create games that are approximately twice as
- large as those possible using the Classic Edition. Plus, your games can have
- optional graphic illustrations, sound effects, music, "pop-up" hints, unique
- fonts (EGA or VGA screens only), and a customizeable "look-and-feel" user
- interface including a menu-driven player input option.
-
- The Master's Edition is available from Softworks for only $50. This price
- includes the cost of five ZIPped disks with over 5 megabytes of goodies
- including complete documentation on disk, a bunch of game creation utilities,
- several brand new sample games including the complete AGT source code to
- HUMONGOUS CAVE (believed to be the largest text adventure game available on
- any microcomputer). The Master's Edition package also includes the complete
- AGT source code to the game you are currently playing (i.e., HURRY!) with all
- of its related font, music, sound effects and pictures files.
-
- Which version is right for you? If you are a "power" gamer/programmer and
- know that you can use (or need) the full power of the Master's Edition, then
- by all means -- get the Master's Edition. If you have less experience with
- programming or game design, then you should probably start with the Classic
- Edition. If you select the Classic Edition, you can always upgrade later when
- you need the full power of the Master's Edition -- for a special "registered
- AGT user" upgrade price of only $35.
