- Snail Trek is a Sierra-style adventure with modern twists, like autocorrect and autosave - 18 July 2018
PC gamers, especially us old-timers, often raise the question, ‘Why don’t game developers make X anymore?’ The common answer is, ‘You only think you want X because you don’t remember how bad X was.’ While I’m all for modern games appealing to more people, I do remember how bad X was, when it comes to the quirks of old adventure games, and I still want it, anyway. Have you seen Stair Quest ? It’s literally only treacherous staircases, Sierra-style sudden death, and a text parser for interacting with stairs. It’s great.  Sierra released King's Quest in 1983, and in 2018, game developers are still innovating on the text parser. Like Stair Quest, Snail Trek boldly takes a step further back in time than most games would dare, but it's not one big joke about the terrible instant deaths in old adventure games. Snail…

If you've enjoyed the Snail Trek series and want to support to the developer so they can make more games like this, the Rainbow DLC is available for chapter 1.

- Patch released for Snail Trek Chapter 1 - 7 December 2017
I've released an update that fixes three bugs: - crash when trying to save if all save slots are filled - game-breaking bug if you try to open a pod while another snail is still emerging and doing its thing - small memory leak that probably no one will notice Note that your save games may lose just a bit of progress with this update, as I fallback to a simpler but more robust format that keeps its integrity across code changes.
