- douche 10y agoI've tried to get into Inform 7, but I spend more time trying to finesse the natural-ish language around to get it to do what I want it to do, compared to the more archaic, C-like Inform 6.
- mbrock 10y agoThe idea is basically to make the code easy to read despite being hard to write, which might not be what you want. I find it a really beautiful system that's super fun to work with. And showing ordinary people the code is great! These days I'm working on a kind of interactive documentary about the collective house where I live and the environment around it. Mini games for the renovations and firewood gathering and stuff, mazes for the nearby central market and the home improvement department store, and various random stories that happened here. It's really fun!
