Re: Interactive Fiction goes Hi-Tech
IF is pretty amazing, some of the competition entries are so inventive it can be breathtaking. The remember a short one (took about 15 mins to complete) which involved getting ready for a desert expidition... needless to say it had one HELL of a twist.
The Inform 7 simply creates the code based on nice easy sentences.. however you can then add more advanced coding to the soruce later.
However, havingsaid that, there are already loads of entensions you can just type into the inform 7 system for advance routines such as NPC interaction and movement, environmental effects, time based events and so on.
Well corcery is a bust.. but I did have a GREAT idea for a Blakes 7 IF.....
