A text adventure game engine and sample games. You might start by copying and modifying simple_game.py.
Make a list, or draw a diagram of all the places, and for each place:
- any events that could occur there, their probabilities, and the effect an occurrence would have on your happiness
- any inventory items you might find there, and the probabilities of their being found
- any optional activities offered there
- transitions to the other places, including whether certain inventory items (such as a key) are required to go there
For example, at the library there’s a chance you could find a book on programming, and if you do, you then can go to a coding party. There’s a chance someone will talk loudly, which upsets you and lowers your happiness. At the coding party someone could teach you some Python, and some other mean person might laugh at your code.
