Adventure Gamers VS Vim Adventures

Obviously I’m committed to the genre since I’m here! I used to follow adventure game developers and fans when I was on twitter. I now lurk on a few discords. Unfortunately the review and news site I’ve relied on since I was a child, Adventure Gamers, is in some funding/ownership flux, but it’s still online. Adventure Game Hotspot was started recently, perhaps to fill a similar space. I also find pretty good... Source: 11 months ago

Other details: I am pretty sure this would have been a free download of some kind-not a paid game. It also would have likely been an independent project. I lived on AGS games/Big Blue Cup and adventuregamers.com in those days-playing all those freeware point and click type games...so I probably stumbled across this somewhere around there.

I think the creator does himself a disservice by selling 6 month licenses rather than lifetime. But 6 months is more than enough to play through it.

That’s a good question. The built in tutorial is actually really good, you can launch it with “vimtutor” on the command line. It doesn’t give you everything, but its instructions and text to try things out on in the editor itself, which I find a good way to learn. It isn’t particularly programming focused either. For getting used to the motions especially https://vim-adventures.com can be a fun way, in its game... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

Very cool! As an aside, I've learned so many things via games like this. Including vim (via https://vim-adventures.com/), which I now basically can't live without. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
