[[Image:gac cover.jpg|right|thumb|250px|'''The Graphic Adventure Creator cover''' (often shortened to ''GAC'') was a game creation system/programming language for adventure games published by [[Incentive Software]].
Published by Its main advance over the already well established ''[[Incentive SoftwareThe Quill]], ''The Graphic Adventure Creator'' (often shortened to ''GAC'') was a game creation system/programming language clever graphics editor, one of very few vector graphics editors for adventure gamesthe CPC.
Its main advance over the already well established ''[[The Quill]]'' was a clever graphics editor, one of very few vector graphics editors for the CPC. This enabled pictures to be drawn using a minimal amount of memory.
In the heyday of the CPC, few major-label commercial games were produced using ''GAC'' (probably fewer than with ''The Quill''), but it had a vast following in the homebrew and public domain scenes - despite a comparatively high retail price of £24.95 in the UK.
''GAC'' was also notorious for its [[Lenslok]] protection system, which mercifully was removed before the utility appeared on a covertape included with the January 1992 issue (#76) of ''[[Amstrad Action]]''. ''[[Amstrad Action]]'' launched a competition to produce an adventure and have it featured on a later covertape. The covertape didn't include two standalone adventures which accompanied ''GAC'' in it's original package when released.
