While most of the works were created with Storyspace software, some, like Kendall's, were not. The first publication was packaged in a vinyl folio, typical of the earliest Eastgate hypertexts; all others were packaged in the cardboard folio. Research for this entry was done by Dene Grigar at the Electronic Literature Lab.
