So I'm playing #CorruptionOfChampions 2, which is a #textbased #game known for its #erotica/#yiff content, and it's really surprising to me just how twisted, evil, and legitimately frightening they've made the main villain, Kasyrra. Like, at first she just seems like a horny demon lady who really wants to fuck you - which I'm all for! - and "Corruption" seemed like it referred to sexy behavior...

...but as I go along, I find that "purity" is actually referring to HOW you go about being sexy, namely that you engage in consensual sex and help people who are having things forced on them. Even the gods are in on this: Cait, your first companion, is a respected sex-priestess. All sex-positive worldbuilding I appreciate, like I did with #TrialsInTaintedSpace.

In 2015, I started making a text-based adventure game entirely coded in Bash and stopped in 2016.
This year, I've started working on it again and looking to have a demo out soon.

Are people still interested in games like this?

This week we've been working on a #Druid skill called #Beast, which allows the player to morph different body parts into those of animals, unlocking various abilities dependent on the morphed parts!

Absolutely one of the most fun skills to work on so far. It's incredibly dynamic and has a lot of unique RP and play potential!

(PS. Please forgive "appendage" typo - we always catch something right after we post a screenshot!)

text-based PBBG, with idle (similar to Drakor)

It's been nearly half a year since I put together "The Butthole Thieves", and you know what? This is still one of the most entertaining quick-play scenarios I've made on #AIDungeon.

Go forth, let the #AI guide you through the #textBased #RolePlaying #Game experience, steal the #butthole of the president, the pope, the king of Larion... It may be illegal, but they can't stop you.

You are your own master in... #ButtholeThieves.

I've created a Facebook Group to help with the completion of the #HP2000 #DND #TextBased #Game. Please join me at https://www.facebook.com/groups/3334344616853330 All are welcome, even if you just want to play the game and submit bug reports.

Thank you!

#textbased

POV: You are developing a #textbased and #tilebased #game in C and you need to save on memory, so you end up using wired #C tricks like those.

I am curious if anyone can figure out what this type definition does.

If you can’t, then go study more C programming.

#introduction - Hello, game world! We're a two person team developing an original #MUD using #Python on the #Evennia framework.

For those unfamiliar with MUDs, they are old school, #textbased #RPG Multi-User Dungeons. Those who like choose your own #adventure books and #DnD may enjoy!

#Mystavaria is a world based on the collision of #dreams and reality. We have 5 classes and over 20 skills, with players able to master abilities in magic skills like "Dreamweaving" and "Sky Prophecy" or stick with more traditional skills like "Blademastery" and "Tactician".

Realizing we're a pretty niche genre, we're excited to connect with other #gamedevs, #gamers and maybe even #fantasy #writers!

"50 Years of #text
#Games
A 2021 Journey from Oregon Trail to A.I. Dungeon

[...]

Every week in 2021, I'll be posting an in-depth look at one text-based computer game from each year between 1971 and 2021, starting next week with The Oregon Trail. For each game, we’ll take a meaty deep dive into what it was like to play in the context of its original release (on a chattering #teletype, over a dial-up modem in a prototype web #browser, on a brand-new iPad) and how its ideas influenced players and the next generation of makers. When warranted, we’ll dig into old #archives or source code to tease out how each game worked, why it was built the way it was, and what it did that was new, interesting, or successful."

I like always being in character, but the "find out in game" mentality was super strong when I played, which is difficult for a #textbased #game. They've written a ton of tutorials since then, though.

can anyone #recommend a browsable online #roleplaying platform? I'm feeling something like #secondlife or the great #muds of old

I got @descartez 's permission to share the #textBased, #singlePlayer version of his #game that I made, so I got a domain and SSL set up for it, and you can play it here:

It's card-based #tabletop game called Night Hike about getting lost on a hike at night, discovering a body killed by a monster, and trying to survive the night while the monster lurks around every corner!

It's super hard to win and takes luck, but the theme is hard to resist!
