Text Adventure
Author
I don''t get it. How did you gods create text based games before c++? (Or OOP at that). It seems so tedious to write the string of the room desc EVERY time, create arrays that reference other arrays and so on. Heck, HOW DID YOU FARE in doing so without ->?
You guys are gods if you can explain how you didn''t go crazy from writing these.

-> isn''t exclusive to C++, or OOP.

I for one, didn''t know there was a better way.
Text based games can be made easily without C++ and data structures that you specifically described. Being creative with what you have to work with is part of the job.
gah!! gah!! heheheheheheh :-))))
not crazy!! huh?? :-))) hehehehehe :-))) hahahahaha
AAAHHHHHH!!!!!!! oh..my!!!!
hehe:-)

I actually never completed my text adventure.
I tried to program it in commodore basic v2.0, on a C64.
But the c64 was already 10 years old then, and suddenly died.
I got an *old* pc then, but never started to program a text adventure again...

10 print "You find yourself standing on a beach, standing next to a tree."20 print "There is no one around. What shall you do?"30 print "N S E"40 input c41 if c = "n" goto 10042 if c = "s" goto 20043 if c = "e" goto 30045 print "Not an option. Try again."46 goto 10100 print "You walk to the north."101 goto 110110 print "There, you find a man sitting on a towel"... heh heh... I started doing that when I was 8.

bit of assembly, and lots of C code. It is actually very easy.

For a much more slick and simple console game written in nice C++, go to

Anywayz, i was doing that QBASIC type stuff long ago. Real neat when you''re only 7 or 8, but i tell ya, DX and OGL sure that stuff.

The sad thing about artificial intelligence is that it lacks artifice and therefore intelligence.
