Would you be interested in releasing this game's point and click engine in a similar way you did with Yarnspin? I'd love to give it a try since I enjoyed YS a lot (even though I lost my game files to a hard drive corruption lol)
Yeah, I’d probably consider releasing the source code to Extrication at some point. The problem though, is that it is not an “engine” in the same way that Yarnspin is. The dialogs are in a script format, but everything else is hard-coded C++ code, which is entirely specific to Extrication and not meant to be general at all. It probably doesn’t make much sense to use the Extrication code for anything else, it would probably be easier to code it from scratch.
That being said though, making a general engine which is script driven and capable of powering a game in the style of Extrication would be a fun thing to do some day :)
oh, and I’m sorry you lost your files, that always sucks
