Population is stuck at 100–300, and the religious system refuses to differentiate. LOL. Currently debugging... I'm trying to force a population spike through "Agricultural Events." 🌾

In the meantime, I’ve hit my Claude Max limit. 🍷💻

Experimenting with Luhmann’s Systems Theory to prompt a civ-building text game in Claude. Wine in hand, watching the complexity unfold. Let's see if this "social system" actually survives. 🍷✨

The Mad Jacks update is now in testing. Expected to land in April. Characters you have already met will be returning, and they remember what you said to them - the good and the bad. But which ones? Find out in the Mad Jacks Update. #TextAdventure #IF #AdventureGames #Inkle

It's 2:40 AM, but I'm going to bed satisfied: I've just finished my first text adventure inspired by Space: 1999! My goal is to create a bundle of six, so tomorrow I'll be starting on the second one. 🚀

As the long-awaited Mad Jack's Update inches closer, here is something we haven't done in a while, a cheesy trailer! Enjoy! #CYOA #AdventureGames #InteractiveFiction #Inkle #SoloDev #GameDev #GameTrailer #IndieGames #TextAdventure

The Map and the Echo (Remote) Inspired by early text-adventure computer games, each performance is unique, shaped by your choices.

Interactive fiction fans, here's a totally remote (Zoom) game of the "Get Lamp" variety, each session unique. Anyone played earlier pieces in this Exploration Game series?

This one was adapted from a British Library experience.

Between one game and the next, I’m studying a tool to create text adventures for the Atari 2600. I’d like to produce a series inspired by TV shows, and I’ve already picked the first title. It won’t be anytime soon, but they are coming.

While writing, I had a random thought to update the tutorial boss' portrait, since he has additional optional scenes in both the prologue and chapter 1.

I made a text adventure/parser IF map creator at fweep.xyz. Please try it out and let me know what's good and what's bad!

It works primarily through typing, just like a text adventure!

I thought I was feature complete. That all I had left to do was polishing and wrapping up the narrative. But here I am. Adding features...

Enemies can now turn hostile!

To keep things orderly, I made a new studio account on itch.io. It will hold all full releases:
make-it-a-triple.itch.io

My personal works, jam games, zines, trinkets, remain on ranarh.itch.io

An update (minor) to the Corridor at blooming last! doginatank.itch.io/thecorridor #IndieDev #CYOA #TextAdventure #Inkle #AdventureGame #SoloDev #FreeGame

There haven't been many requests for the Corridor, but I imagine if there had been, one of them would be: "I would really like to see the table I am sitting at in Colin's." In the upcoming update, your wish becomes true — it's just a shame you're imaginary. #GameDev #GameArt #TextAdventure

Still writing chapter 1, but I'm also making some technical enhancements. My latest success is the new save API!

I'm now working on chapter 1 and improved accessibility.

Mobile users had to toggle the right side bar to check HP, so I have added a new setting to include party stats in the passage alongside the enemy.
