The Crime Tracer (tct) is an adventure crime game. The main character of the game is a detective who is investigating several crime cases while trying to arrest a professional serial killer. The idea of creating a classic 2D adventure computer game came up while me and my friend efxa [el] were looking for a funny project to work on. Since we both like the old-time classic adventure computer games (Monkey Island, Broken Sword etc.), we decided to spend some time on creating a free software adventure game.

To be honest, we are not hardcore gamers so even though we want tct to be completed someday, there is no need to rush. This project is a good chance to improve our python skills, apply design patterns in practice, experiment with the integration of different programming languages (for example Python and Prolog), etc.
