First time requesting a group, hopefully this is the right place to ask! Several games use a scripting language called Cohort, developed by Thomas Rolfs / Game Toolworks. While the site is no longer online, a bit of information about the scripting engine can be found @ https://web.archive.org/web/20100109012901/http://www.gametoolworks.com/cohort

Games that use Cohort include:

Dungeon Siege: Throne of Agony
After Burner: Black Falcon
Fat Princess: Fistful of Cake
Smarty Pants
Order Up!
Endless Skater
And likely others I haven't yet identified

I would like a Scripting language: Cohort group so that I can add these games (and others that use the scripting language) to the group.

Looking at the developers archived page, it is described both as a scripting language and a game engine. Should it be listed as both?

Hey Rwolf! Thanks for checking it out! My understanding is that it's primarily a scripting language. I don't believe it offers features I'd typically think of as game engine features.
