What's The History On SCI Studio?

I began developing SCI Studio in May of 1999. At the very end of August that year, I released SCI Graphic Studio 1.0, an editor for a number of the SCI graphic resources. Around mid-December of the same year, I released SCI Graphic Studio 1.5, an extension of the previous version with many new features. As soon as it was released, I went past the graphics and began development on SCI Studio, the complete SCI game development system. SCI Studio 2.0 was under development and steadily progressing, but still had a lot of work to be done. After nearly two years, the compiler took shape and was creating SCI scripts.

By mid 2001, SCI Studio 2.0 was released. It edited the graphics, managed the packages, and built scripts and vocabs. It was still far from complete, as it still needed a template game and extensive documentation. In mid 2002, through my continuous effort and dedication, I finally finished SCI Studio 2.1, including the complete template game, tutorial, and extensive help file. You could now create your own complete SCI games!

In early March of 2003, SCI Studio 3 was completed and SCI Studio VGA went into development. In time, I moved on to other projects, but the full source code to the last version has been released, and you are free to use it!

How Can I Support SCI Studio?

The best way you can support SCI Studio, is to just use it and enjoy it!

How Do I Get Started?

To create an SCI game, you must first download SCI Studio 3. Get it on the download page. Next, download the tutorial. Go through the tutorial from top to bottom. If you go through it in it's entirety, don't skip anything, and do all it's lessons, you will have no trouble making an SCI game.
