Currently a work in progress, The full Gourd of the Beans Series is being developed in the classic Sierra styling.  Designed as an AGI (Adventure Game Interpreter) program, it is, in a very real sense, like its 80's predecessors.  Originally the intent was to make the game such that it would run in the original interpreter.  However, being a perfectionist, the pictures and sprites became more and more detailed, soon surpassing those in the original Sierra games.  The detailed work soon exceeded the memory limitations inherent to AGI games. As such, the game, while still an AGI game, requires a more modern program to run.  Such programs, like NAGI and ScummVM, are freely available for download on the internet.
