Inspired by classic games like Shadow Caster, Dagger Fall, Catacomb 3D, Eye of The Beholder, Dungeon Hack, Wizardry 6: BoTCF and so on and so forth. This project takes A LOT -- nearly everything, sprite and texture wise, from the artwork of Strategic Simulations Inc. This is a tribute to them in all their glory. The final product will remain free, but I will spend quite some time drawing over these sprites to enhance but not lose the original magic that they brought to us and will continue to.
"What is Questron?"
Questron is a fantasy role-playing video game series produced by Strategic Simulations, Inc. Released in 1984 for Apple II, Atari and Commodore 64 platforms.
"Why is this project titled Questron if it is not really anything todo with the real Questron?"
I was born in the 80's and enjoyed playing Commodore 64 and Atari as a kid. I used to enjoy Role Playing Games like Questron, Questron II, Ultima and of course, the SSI/TSR Goldbox Series games
When I was a wee gamer, playing away on my C64, SSI games often included some primitive First Person perspective game play.
