So, Cymon's games has inspired me to try my hand at textmode games. I will write throwaway test programs and hopefully work towards something interesting.
Throwaway Test program 1: It's a start, I guess. You can move around a boring room and talk to a single NPC (and harass him, if you try hard enough). You can also edit the board by pressing forward slash, and load/save the board to a text file.
The next one will have an actual game objective! And win/lose states! what the hell am i doing

how fast can you get your spinny rocket around the track?
(endless time trial mode only)
Vector MPH is a game which features all the hallmark traits of a great Sonic game: super speed, chaos emeralds, and helicopters. Your job is to make Vector go really, really fast while collecting goodies and avoiding baddies. If you reach Mars, you win! Make sure to use the power of the emeralds for cool moves.
All the action of Press Z for Desk, but now with OVER 20 DIFFERENT NOISES! ISN'T THAT DELIGHTFUL??
You jumped into the sun and reached a new plane of existence!
Now the sky belongs to you... so decorate it as you please!
A little art tool/toy thingy.
If anyone was wondering where I found the arcade-styled font for my Invaders game:
They also have a ton of fonts from other classic games, like 1943 and Crossbow, as well as the Pac-Man font, and a Vector-based one, too!
Protect your city from an air raid for as long as you can! Rockets don't hurt you.
Arrow Keys to move. Z to shoot.
Survive.
An action-packed sequel to http://www.glorioustrainwrecks.com/node/2623
Hold Z to feel emotions.
Possibly the worst idea for a game I've ever had.
Um.
