Here's a quick progress update.

Unfortunately, Larry didn't do anything cool for us during the recording, but I didn't want to drag it out..

Here's a little video update for anyone interested. Making progress.

I seem to be getting WebGL crashes so I'll have to look into that.

The crashes were due to some UI components I added. Easy fix. Remove them

I'm planning to add a section like that to the agile-gdx README as well, in fact I've added a lot of additional features to this JOric emulator that I think would be useful for agile-gdx, such as loading a game from a url via a request parameter, and drag and drop, and generally lots of usability improvements, particularly with the game selection pages. I do plan to copy those improvements back to agile-gdx at some point.

Welp.. I'm in a fine mess now I've made enough progress to ensure I'll be wasting a lot more time screwing around with this project hahaha

Lance, the level of detail and effort you (always) go to is truly impressive.

I've been trying to build and deploy the app. I have no issues running it on the real site via Chrome, but I am getting this error when it's deployed locally.

(building with gradle html:war)

html-0.js:8354 Uncaught ReferenceError: SharedArrayBuffer is not defined
    at com_agifans_agile_gwt_GwtUserInput_GwtUserInput__V.com_agifans_agile_gwt_GwtUserInput_GwtUserInput__Lcom_google_gwt_core_client_JavaScriptObject_2Lcom_google_gwt_core_client_JavaScriptObject_2Lcom_google_gwt_core_client_JavaScriptObject_   .....

UPDATE:
If you are running in Tomcat 10+ you will either need a servlet filter or a web server/proxy to set the following headers:
   Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy same-origin;
   Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy require-corp;

Build / deployment instructions would help the README.  If I get it going, I'll send a PR.

I've pushed this little project with AGI.js, but I think I am starting to see it hit a limit due to the bugs in that engine.  I am thinking of switching this over to the web version of AGIle. 

Weekend programming and AI prompt engineering fun:

The Games and other Sierra Adventure stuff / Re: New Sierra Documentary In the Works

Ken & Roberta's new company, Cygnus Entertainment, sends out occasional emails with updates on their Colossal Cave game, as well as other things they are involved in.  Their update for today included this:

A while back, we were approached by some filmmakers who were interested in producing a documentary about the adventure game genre, but more specifically, the story of myself, Roberta and Sierra On-Line.

We refused.

Sierra On-Line's story is an amazing one. It deserves to be told. However, we've been down this road before, on a variety of other documentary projects and nothing ever happened with them. One of the producers on the project, Cade Peterson, is a friend of a friend, and also in the game industry. Cade persisted after our refusal, ultimately convincing us his team would deliver.

The Sierra story is the thing great movies are made of. There are highs, lows, good guys and bad. We are excited to finally see it told in this documentary format.

A few weeks ago, we conducted our interview for the documentary. It was a long grueling day.

The documentary folk dug in deep, capturing some incredible footage. I had thought we might be done, but there's a lot more to cover. We?re delighted to see that some of our beloved Sierra creators like Al Lowe and Lori and Corey Cole are part of the project too? with many more to come, we?re told!

You can follow the project for updates at this link.

I hope it's ok -- but a few weeks ago I reached out to them to tell them about this forum and that they really need to consider talking to a few of you guys because you are keeping part of this world alive. They appeared receptive to that and I think some of you may be contacted. Sorry :p  BUT... you guys rock... and you are part of the bigger story <3

The latest build of Let Them Eat Cake is here: https://let-them-eat-cake.com/ltec-1-7-1.zip
There are some bug fixes in there, and ... I added Cedric to a scene per request of Ricky on the Sierra Universe forum

How is traffic to the AGIle site? There are a lot of games there. I've tried a bunch but haven't gotten to far in many of them.

I'm doing what I can to keep it on top for a bit. The birthday is only relevant for so long, but as long as new YouTube videos come out, etc., in my estimation, it's okay to continue to bring the subject back up without being "spammy."

I think r/Sierra doesn't allow this kind of content. In my limited experience, it gets removed immediately.
