Ok, there was no pure python runtime for Ink (inkle's narrative scripting language) so I just did it. Available here: github.com/rawktron/pyink
All the tests pass. Tested a few inks: all good. That's about all the assurances I can give. When I get some time I'll publish to PyPI, etc.

A short post on the opening lines of a game: how they work, and what they can do. (With examples. Possibly indulgent, but I think the topic is interesting.)

It’s the product of the wonderful @inkle.co team and a truly genius idea - but that’s classified for now…
But seriously, I loved working on this last year with @jon.inkle.co and @paulwarren.bsky.social 😊 and from the bits I’ve heard, @pabosher.com is brilliant too!

"Are you there? Can you hear me?"
Thrilled to be back for another inkle game! A very different game (and role) from Highland Song, but that's no surprise. I shouldn't say much, but I hope the many hours of joint recording with @jon.inkle.co and @rmcloughlin.bsky.social speak for themselves
