Fan-Made PD Red Dwarf Adventure Game

I have a clear memory of playing a small (demo / prototype) point-and-click graphic adventure game based on the UK TV show Red Dwarf. I think it may have been created in GRAC, but I'm not sure. I remember you controlled Lister as a player character and there was some kind of portal on the ship that would take you to a canal on present-day Earth. I don't remember which PD library or CD-ROM or wherever it was I got it from, unfortunately.

Yeah I think several people had the same idea around the same time... I actually found yet another Red Dwarf adventure made in Visual Basic 3 (only runs on 16/32-bit Windows unfortunately, so I couldn't try it yet) from the late 90s by a guy called Michael Dodson: http://www.freegame.cz/hry-ke-stazen...the-game/14193 It's graphical but first-person, the game I remember was definitely a "Monkey Island"-style

Red Dwarf was an excellent show. Being in the US, I didn't know about it until 1995. Thank God for Netflix. I just re-watched them last month. Still wonderful.

Chris Barrie was at last years Play Expo in Manchester (England) signing autographs for £15 a pop, greedy bastard, I didn't pay that much for the whole series on DVD!! Actually, I think a can of pop was also about £15 too!

Ah well done Rygar, transferring to floppies right now. Looks like the first one you posted is for the Acorn Archimedes, might have to get my Arc3000 out later today
