I've done a bit more work on my Literal Magic game, adding graphics. Before anyone gets too excited, they were done by me in a very simplistic style. But I do think it adds something. If you remove or rename the pics folder, they will disappear, so fear not! The point is to show it can be done, and there is nothing in theory stopping this system being used with fabby high resolution graphics in SMSQ/E.

Congrats!
It has a very good graphics taste. I prefer it than hyper modern realistic one.
That is a nice compromise with retro taste!
And your demo to mix text adventures with graphics is successful!

Thanks Popopo, your comments are appreciated
I think the graphic style suits the less serious type of adventure. It wouldn't be right for a horror game like The Curse of Rabenstein though! (Shame that's not available on the QL)
I'm finding creating graphics challenging but fun.
Cheers,
Alan
