Chesterland Adventure
Trivia
Cancelled sequel
Chesterland just seems to be synonymous with "let's try something out!" The author describes a Chesterland II which never went prime-time:
The game you refer to was meant to be developed in the "web 1.0" days, back when the only DHTML that people could do was image swapping and the occasional inline Javascript "document.write" command. I have a tileset, maps, and a bunch of notes (including "cutscene" dialogue), but the only area you can walk around in is the first. In feel it was meant to be like playing a Stuart Smith Adventure Construction Set game with slightly more colors.
If I was to revisit it now, it would be much, MUCH easier to write, and would even be web-standards compliant. But I don't know if anyone would have the patience to play it. :D
If I was much more ambitious, I would forget about the whole thing, and instead write an online interpreter for Adventure Construction Set disk images.
