Episode 104 - Interview with Chris Ainsley (Part 2)

This week Chris Ainsley drops by for the second time to give an update Adventuron Classroom the software designed to teach kids how to code and create Text Adventures. He also talks about about the Text Adventure Literacy Jam which “encourages text adventure authors to write a fun game such that can guide children (age 8+) so they can play unassisted, or that younger children can play with a parent or trusted adult.” Chris also reveals how he managed to convince the Godfather of Text adventures, Mr Scott Adams to agree to be a judge and what prize he will give the winner. They also have time to discuss the state of text adventures and whether there is still a market for them. (spoiler: there is). All that and much more!
