There are a lot of silly tidbits and easter eggs if you look close enough. [Two possible endings]



This is my first Inform 7 game, so it's a bit janky. This engine sort of felt a bit like a puzzle to me, so my first thought was to make a puzzle maze game...with a rat of course. The perfect little test subject! This was created for my narrative class.

Congrats on your first game!Inform 7 is not easy (believe me, I've tried), so getting anywhere with it is an achievement.  A few notes:

  • There are several things that get no response: "get cube"; "get stick"; "climb rubber walls".
  • When I "pull lever", it's fixed in place; when I "push lever" it works, though it tells me that I pull the lever.
  • The room descriptions still show the balls even after they've been picked up and moved.
  • I expected "put blue ball in blue hole" to work; I was surprised you just put them in "box" rather than their holes.

This is all super helpful, especially the "put blue ball in blue hole" part you mentioned! I didn't even think of coding it like that. Thank you for the notes :]

Yeah, this is why you always have playtesters. :-)  (Please ignore that I have released more or less everything I've written without playtesting.)
