Inform 7

After a certain point, you simply have to admit that you're hooked. Well, here it is.

Inform 7 is cool. I'm writing a text adventure.

Will I enter something in IFComp 2007? Dunno. Will I get involved with the IF community? Dunno. Will I give it up after a week? Probably Dunno. But if you feel like offering encouragement, commentary, or critique (or just listening to me talk), I'm setting up a filter for IF stuff now – just drop in a comment, and I'll put you in.

(It's either bad or good that all my ideas seem to involve writing new 'rules' for the game – I don't know which.)

Darnit, now I want to try to write Infocom 7 adventures again too. I was never very good at it--partly because my ideas always exceeded my skill, leaving me frustrated--but it's such a marvelous tool.

Well, I think I can say with some confidence that my ideas are cah-ray-zay. Details in a second.
