Scott.Adams Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Hi All, This is Scott Adams from the classic adventure series and the Adventure International company. You may remember the numerous titles we had for the Atari home computers. I am currently working with a team to get Adventureland XL produced. It will be a 40th anniversary salute to the very first micro computer adventure game and will be for modern platforms. To do this I really need your help! Please watch the following and then head over to the second link where we have a Patreon account setup. Thanks for your time! Love live Atari home computers! and then go to https://www.patreon.com/Clopas Happy Adventuring! 27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 (edited) Hi Scott, Legend you are thanks for coming along. The Count was my first cart on the VIC-20. And forcing me learning English with a dictionary:D. Those were times. Edited June 9, 2019 by Heaven/TQA 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cvga Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 My first Scott Adams cart was also The Count for the Vic-20. I had a chance to meet Scott and his wife at the Midwestern Gaming Classic a few years ago. He was a super nice guy. I'd potentially be interested in being one of the backers but don't understand how patreon works (for projects). I took a look at the site and it appears to be asking for a monthly amount. How many months is the commitment? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All support is greatly appreciated! Thanks for the additional info. I'd be interested if there was a one-time option. I hate signing up for anything that requires an on-going commitment, even if I can cancel at any time. Is there a way for those of us who don't want to go through Patreon to back the project directly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a way for those of us who don't want to go through Patreon to back the project dir You can cancel PAtreon right after signing up if you like. That way you will be in the Patreon logs and get messages and rewards etc. Or if you like a single payment may be sent via PayPal to msadams@msadams.com Thanks for considering helping 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would appreciate this getting shared in other retro groups as well. I appreciate anything folks are willing to do to help out. This project won't happen without folks being a part of it.

Mclaneinc Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Awesome work Scott, every one is making sure you get as much focus as possible... Wish I had the spare be a patreon but I really wish this venture all the best... One day try and persuade your brother to do a interview re Happy and the whole scene, I'd love to read all about the bits in the background But thank you for doing the XL getting an XL going, hopefully it will be on sale in the end for all folk.....(not read the advert fully) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preppie Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I may have read the patreon wrong but I don't think this is a program for the Atari XL, I think it's a PC game based on the old games with the XL denoting Xtra Large I guess. Anyway, good luck to you Mr Adams, your adventures were some of the first games I played back in the 80's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 doesn't mean it could have a retro portal to the 8 bit using lantronix, perle, or dragon cart etc... with today's massive carts, hard drives etc. for the Atari it is possible to make it integrate as well... but hey one step at a time.

Anyway, good luck to you Mr Adams, your adventures were some of the first games I played back in the 80's. This is indeed for modern platforms at this point (who knows what the future brings?). Also the XL means something besides Extra Large. Can you guess what? By the way I love your handle big time Edited June 12, 2019 by Scott.Adams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mclaneinc Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 (edited) As long as its for PC I don't mind...I presumed it was and not an actual XL (I read that much) Preppie, and what company did that Thanks for all the good times you and the label game us...
