Oh yeah, On the Wire, And the Forests Will Echo with laughter, Sedimental Worries, and Code Red: Special Edition.
I'll be short and to the point. Finishing games is cool. Otherwise it'd be "you're going to the store and you finally find the meaning to this game, it's..." then it doesn't tell you? people who make unfinished games should at least tell you the meaning. It's everyone else's job to finish it if it's released unfinished and the zzter's gone... If I were to leave ZZT, I'd expect someone to finish Pacifying Fall and Life for me, even if they have no idea the direction of the game.
On the wire wasn't bad, but I had one big problem with it.. I downloaded it from lemmer not knowing what it was a long time before EVERYTHING and the file was called WIRED.ZZT, and you shoulda kept the D..
As for Sedimental Worries, Voighdt IMmed me personally even though he could care less much about newschool ZZT and "ERI is shitty", saying it shoulds been left alone or something. I thought it was fine the way it was, but i was wrong. It actually, aside from 4 parts looks really good.
a. title screen was Tseng's second favourite title screen and shoulda stayed. His first personal favourite was Outer Emergency's. He probably said it to humor me though, but you never know. When I saw this new one I'm like "what, why are there dragons here? 3rd place? i suck bigtime.
b. the welded behind bars board where you're walking behind the bars shoulda stayed.
c.shoulda remade Masamune's game FEAR: THIS SHITTY GAME, or a game needed of it. Oh well, coming soon: Night Terror Graphical Enhancement.. or not.
d. the biggest drop of them all.. the sidescroller. aspect. Back in the day, I thought the coolest shit in the world was the Sidescroller / RPG (see Castlevania series, especially saturn/ps1 Symphony of the Night).
Other than that, I'd have to say the ending boards rocked, like the ones a little after the welded behind bars one, and the game starting backwards too, going south instead of north, etc.
Code red, awesome shit. It took the old graphics and fixed all the complaints about all the graphicsl craps.. The only one whos didn't like it were those 2 Netherlands fellas who gave it lower scores than the dramatically low quality graphics version in comparison, which makes no sense. standards have highered for some reason, and it showed the aging factor in Code Red. Code Red: SE took that away. That was all that mattered, man.
And the Forests Will Echo With Laughter was remade before being released in order to evade Xabbott's refusal to accept remakes, and it was a basic revamp.
But I dunno, I think it feels good to spice up games, otherwise there'd be no point in doing it... I mean, heck, even Herc's done it.. He redid the Ewok Demo, but that was silly cuz that was kinda like an ewok demo demo cuz it was shorter than the demo. Brilliant stuff, man

you people are perfectly welcome to do this
it's just we'll really be angry if you ruin a game with your shitty sequel or something.

I keep getting And the Forests Will Echo With Laughter mixed up with Demon Pogie in the Forest of Bleagh.
Now I don't even remember the first one, except that the first time I heard Stairway to Heaven I was like ohhh shit that's where it's from.
