BROKEN MIRROR
Point & Click | 2009, 2024

About
Are you ready for the truth? You wakes up in a damp and cold cell. Your head hurts like it has been smashed with something and you feel very dizzy. You can’t remember who you are and why you are locked it. You need to find a way out of this place and find out who you are.

Development
This was originally an Interactive Fiction game created in a programming language called ALAN IF. Alan is a tool for creating just text adventure games to this day. This was the first game I ever created at The Game Assembly when I studied there back in 2009, the same school that I now work at.

For years I have thinking about to remake this game to a classic Point & Click game, but because I didn’t have the source code or even a playable version of the game the task was impossible.

The turning point came when I started working for The Game Assembly and searched through the game archive. At first, I found nothing. Which led me to believe that the game really was lost in time. But after a month or so I took another look and really searched through everything, and that’s when I found it, the game was just archived in the wrong folder. The source code was still gone but there was a playable version of the game.
But since the source code was gone, the only option I had was to play through the whole game, writing down everything, find all the hidden stuff that we implemented over ten years ago. Strangely, I pretty much remembered everything. Now it was time to finally code the game to the Commodore 64.
