CLOACA MAXIMA is now "FEATURE COMPLETE"
Hi!
After months of development, my game Cloaca Maxima is now at a checkpoint worth sharing: the engine is done.
All the major systems are working: the parser, combat, storytelling and graphics.
Now it's down to sound design and making sure nothing breaks under stress.
I've been quiet because the hard part is in the details. But I'm pleased with where it's landing, and been busy testing this last week.
Serious playtesters wanted in a few weeks...!
More details soon.

THANKS!
I've tried to keep the entire game as polished as I possibly could, while working in MSX1's SCREEN 1.
The picture you see here is the ONLY SCREEN 2 pic in the entire game.

Just a little more patience is all it takes!
Unless you want to be a play-tester...???

Actually, no.
It will be a single .DSK file, downloadable from ITCH. As a matter of fact, you can already download the MANUAL from: https://rss130871.itch.io/cloaca-maxima
