Reddit reviews Ctrl Alt Escape (Spanish Edition)

Title "Ctrl Alt Escape". https://www.amazon.es/Ctrl-Alt-Escape-Best-Seller/dp/8467582502 Now sold to Mexico and Chile. Hopefully English version sold soon. Interesting question. I am a tinkerer, love playing with and studying Tads, Inform 7 etc. Love to program and dream up ways of making even better parsers so other IF people will say "Wow, you are good".

But in the end, I found I was looking at complexity (I ENJOY complexity, but do my public enjoy it?) I love it when there are combat systems that simulate D&D style fights with statistics... but with all these random numbers you are designing a way of tossing a coin to answer the question "Does the player go the right way or the wrong way? do they die or survive?". I had a story to tell so I just decided to tell that very best version of the story rather than letting a player have the (entirely different, and equally valid fun) experience of trying to get it right and probably getting it wrong.

If I ever did write a full blown IF work, I'm sure I would have combat systems and statistics and maybe even visible statistics AND visible dice throws. And I would probably make the AI cheat so it gave the players the best experience. "You need an 18 or above, and you roll .... an 18, Wow you are lucky, just scraped a survive throw."
