Welcome to the Lagoon.

The FAQs and the Rules should answer the majority of questions you might have. Please spend the 5± minutes necessary and read both!

We understand many of you are authors/coders and wish to display your adventure/game. While we’re anxious to share in what you've made we ask you EARN the privilege to create a new thread. There are 12 topics containing over 2700 threads. It shouldn’t be overly difficult to add 5 meaningful posts to existing threads.

If you subscribe to the Priv-Box the latest Shark game (Teasing Holidays) previews there before it's released to everyone. There is also a joint venture by Shark and JIMMYJOHN (Stool Pigeon). And finally there are bonus scenes from many of Shark's previous releases.

For all the residents, we hope you swim often and await your thoughts on daily events.
Enjoy the warm water, cool beverages, and the occasional glimpse of a mermaid.

Hello there! I'm a (very) long-time lurker in the AIF community, and have recently decided to be somewhat more active. I'm a professional software developer in his mid 30's, from northern europe.

I've tried writing a few games in both TADS and ADRIFT before, but never getting anywhere close to something publish-able. Lately I've been tinkering with Inform 7, which I've found really fascinating, and have started working on a "complete" AIF Extension for it.

So, hi guys!

[Squeeky]

Most welcome FictitiousFrode.
Take a trip down the way to Projects, if you haven't already done, and join the discussions there.
Maybe in time you can begin threads to discuss your own project.
Enjoy your stay.

Hello to all who belong to this most amazing site, i am a senior of senior citizens who because of medical reasons was forced to retire from gainful employment many years age, i at present live in the United States of America, i found the lagoon many years ago and have been enjoying it ever since, i had not done the introductions before because i know hardly nothing of computers and how to make them work, would love to see some standards on what ever is used to make games to play and the Shark and team make some of the best games i have ever found. I myself have managed to contribute to Shark and team only once and will again when able, i urge all who enjoys this site to contribute to the game makers, wish to see taboo subjects age and beast used in the games as to raise the level of excitement but will admit at my age excitement does not exist. Thank you Shark for your wonderful games.

Being surprised that anyone might be over 25, of course -- some of us are on our ninth lives!

Hi everyone! I am a 66 yr young retired mechanic. I have never been much
of a game enthusiast, but I now have a bit more free time to myself and would like to try.
