Due to the major graphics fail of last time, I have decided to make a text based adventure this time. The graphics may or may not still fail.

And So It Begins ...

So, the aftermath. This immediately sounds like a war has just happened, which could have some interesting side effects. Flying monkeys, for example.
I have created a Github repo for this here for anyone who wants to follow along as the game is created.

Sorry about the wait.

This was a very busy week for me, with rehearsals until 7 every day and a presentation for school to prepare, but I managed to get a game out of it. It is very incomplete, but is playable. One of the nice things about making a text-based game is that there are fewer places for bugs to creep in, which saved a lot of time. Anyway, try to have fun playing this game.

(PS: In the source code, there are some files for graphical adventures using curses. If someone wants to wok on making those work, go ahead!)
