Releases:
* Adventure Creation Kit v3 (Windows)
* Adventure Creation Kit v3 (Mac)
This is a comprehensive top-down 2D game development tool that allows for the creation of tiled RPG-type games, similar to Ultima I through to Ultima V. It is now fully operable under both Windows and Mac OS X without need for emulation of any kind.
The Kit was completed in 1995, and was intended as Mr. Hopkins’ update to the classic Adventure Construction Kit of the 1980s. In about 2000, the Kit was released as freeware, and Joshua Lawrence has taken it upon himself to maintain a web presence for the Kit. The ‘v3′ update was released in early 2008.

Thanks for adding this! Just an additional note that ACK, unlike many other DOS programs, will run directly in Win XP and Win 98 without the need for DOSBox. However, to hear ACK’s built-in sound and music, DOSBox is needed.

I finally had the good fortune to stumble across Josh’s website, and I’ve been working with Josh to fix some long-standing bugs and add a few new enhancements. v2.2 is now obsolete; there’s a v2.3 available on Josh’s website now, and there’s a 2.4 currently in beta.
