Is this canceled, and if it is is there any chance it could be open sourced? I really want to learn NESMaker to make a game along the lines of Shadowgate if it's even possible, and being able to see how this wizardry was pulled off could be really helpful to those of us who want to learn.
The NESmaker build of The Prying Eye was cancelled. It was around the time that I quit using NESmaker and starting developing NES homebrew from the ground-up. I had originally intended to restart development from a clean slate, but that ultimately hasn't happened.
I would like to revisit the concept someday, but those plans are on hold indefinitely. [I have no plans to open-source the NESmaker build.]
That's totally fair. Thanks for the reply. I really hope that The Prying Eye sees a resurrection one day because it's absolutely the kind of game that I would play the crap out of haha. I honestly didn't even realize that NESMaker was capable of making games like this... I bought it a few years ago with hopes of making something along the lines of Shadowgate, so seeing your project has given me new hope that maybe one day I can actually pull it off!
I pray in the future, 90% oi new NES games are novel, adventure-click games. I am addicted to these games like crazy!!! THE ATMOSPHERE THIS GAME BRINGS IS ENORMOUS!!
I WILL BUY YOUR GAME AND ANY SERIES OF THIS GAME IN A HEART BEAT!!

I'm amazed at the things you're able to achieve. Huge fan here.
LOL! Loved it man! That ending cracked me up...Sounded just like a good friend of myne from back home, and something he would actually say.
This is really cool! Love the art and the point & click mechanics!
