Adam Hay, the creator of The Journey Home has rumoured that his awaited game,
Byzantine - will no longer be a 2D point & click adventure - but will emerge
again as interactive fiction. Since the dissapearence of his artist, Adam says "
A 2d point-and-click adventure isn't perhaps the best medium to convey what I want to with Byzantine, so I'm reviewing other ways to make the game."
He also reports a new and exciting project in the works,
but doesn't want to reveal any information about it at the moment.
