Encounter HD: rebuilding the 1983 Oric adventure

Encounter HD rebuilds the 1983 Oric text adventure in C and assembly for floppy-based Oric hardware. The new version revises item interactions and hazards, replaces action-count timing with a clock, and adds graphics, audio and alternative routes through some obstacles.
