After much playing around with it, I finally got the built-in interpreter to work how I wanted it to! Now when I Release my demo for the next person, you can play without having to download a program or visit a separate website! Anyone interested in trying my horror game?

I've been working on beefing up player command options and early game content for a more robust experience. I'm feeling really good about what I've got!

Today I locked the player in the cottage and made sure they can't get back out again.

For the past week, every time I fixed one issue with combat, and then the flashlight system, another issue cropped up in its place. I am SO HAPPY to report that after extensive debugging, I've pinpointed all the problems and the game is playing perfectly!

Having been reminded that I never polished the very beginning of the game like I intended (yay ADHD!) I just finished turning the spawn in your car into its own room you can get in and get out of to travel to the street, and then progress further into the game!

I was playing A Dark Room and thought to myself "this is neat ... I wonder how hard it would be to learn to write a text-based game from scratch.

A quick search led me to Inform 7, and here I am now making a horror game! (The answer was: hard, but not very)
Share a piece of lore about yourself

Yes I stole this from musky folks site…I feel like we’ll get better answers here lol

Wow, I had to turn combat into a triggered scene in order to implement a sanity level system! That said, it's all working now. It's been days in the making, but it's done! Now I don't know what to work on next. What would you suggest for a horror game?

Combat is almost perfect! The final hurdle to tackle tonight after work is player death not triggering. Everything else is finally working perfectly. No more zombie punch!

My first dev log is up! It's a short one, as I haven't done much this week compared to regular weeks. I just moved into a new house so unpacking has been hectic.

Check it out and let me know what features you would like to see in a horror game!

That small combat issue? Yeah, it was a huge problem to the point that I'm rewriting combat again using Lanista 2 elements to create my own attacking system separate from Inform's built-in one. So far, so good!

Ran into a small combat issue where the hostile spirit was still attacking the player after the death message printed. Working on solving that through some variable rules to toggle in combat!

My combat system is finally complete and functioning exactly as I want it to! Wandering Spirit is my first hostile character, who begins passive, and she will follow you from room to room after becoming hostile and attack you. I'm so proud 🥹

Thinking I might make a tumblr for weekly logs of what I've been working on. I'll still be updating here as I feel like and have been, but it might be nice to have all the info in one place. What do you think?

Happy to report the neighbours I have met so far are all lovely and seem happy to have us in the neighbourhood. Soon, to bake cookies for them all. The move is going well!

Hah! I had to completely remove one of Inform's built-in rules, but my combat system is functioning exactly as I intended it now! Well, player combat. Now I need to define enemy combat, easy peasy (I say now.)

It's moving day, but this morning I worked on rewriting my new combat system, which was firing messages in reverse, then had the player attacking themself, then the small flashlight attacked the player ... it was a lot. I'm starting from the ground up!

Oh boy, it took all night and all morning, but I finally managed to override Inform 7's default climb behaviour to allow the player to >climb stairs. Even redefining it wasn't working quite right.

This simple bit of gameplay right here led to me going down a rabbithole of discovery that the player DOESN'T EXIST. Somehow the player doesn't exist. I don't know how I did that, but I need to figure out how to fix it 😅

I have so much I can work on with my game to improve the depth of gameplay options available to the player. I'm already getting started by fixing a silly lightswitch rule that also seems to apply to the flashlight.

I've gotten some feedback on my game (thank you again 🖤) and I am so stoked to get home and work on the changes! The feedback was very helpful and reassuring that I'm on the right track.

If you would like to demo my horror game, lemme know!

Didn't have the energy for a run this morning so I used that hour to work on my game. Started crafting the second floor west wing and a Wandering Spirit who might attack the player if they do the wrong thing c:
