P.T. ported to Apple II using HyperCard tools

Indie developer Ryan Travik carried out the transfer P.T. on Macintosh. Famous horror Hideo Kojima was recreated in a visual programming environment Hypercard for Apple ii.

HyperCard was released by Apple in 1987 and allowed you to create your own hypermedia applications on Macintosh running the Mac OS in versions 6 through 9. HyperCard was also called the “organizer of information” because it allowed you to put together texts, pictures, sounds, animations using revolutionary hyperlinks at that time.

As a result, the user sees a set of slides, between which switches with simple mouse clicks. The technology is not very convenient, but thanks to it, for example, a game was born Myst. The developers called it an interactive book, where the gameplay was built on a point-and-click system.

In P.T. for HyperCard, the player can move around the house, look around, and also up and down. The picture is not color – it consists of several gradations of white and black colors. Also, the author had to cut a number of points, but Ryan added something new from himself. What exactly he did not say, leaving the players to understand themselves.

“You just have to play to find out,” he wrote.

A remake of P.T., dubbed Hyper P.T., Travik worked on the HyperJam game. He took two weekends to work. Later, the developer posted the project in the public domain on itch.io, where now anyone can download it. The demake works on Macintosh, as well as on Windows and Linux with the Apple II emulator.
