Awesome 16 color game from 1991 where you could make worlds very easily with no programming knowledge.

Anybody hear of it?

The text game? I adored those back in the 80's. Epic Games was an awesome group. I never did play this one but I did play some others. Tim Sweeney is a bit of a legend.

Thats a place you can download it. Its an old DOS game so you might need to use Dosbox to load it up. Then again you might not. Give it a WHIRL.

I just downloaded that ZZT, it's pretty interesting how they did that all with text and blocks and those alt symbols (or what seems like them).
