This is really great, it does seems useful to store it that way. It will be really useful, thank you!

Adding synonyms would be a good idea yes, thank you for the suggestion! I will add a message for unknown commands in the future and yes, the thing with the door was an oversight. I added the first one last minute, but the description of the room does change when you pick the hammer, I'll need to fix that, thanks.
Thanks! I'll be sure to add the other options for directional movement. And yes, it is planned to add an inventory, I simply didn't add it in this exemple since there's only one item that would be in it. And somehow, I completely forgot to mention the door in the beggining of the game, thanks for pointing it out, it is now fixed.
Hi everyone, I'm currently working on a parser text adventure game and since it's my first time working on a game like that, I was wondering if some people would want to try a little exemple I made and tell me their opinions about it. Mainly if the game is not too confusing and easy to play, even for people who have little to no experience with that type of game. It would be greatly appreciated.
Here's the link of the exemple and the password is: decker
And feel free to use the exemple as well if you want to make your own text adventure game. The scripts were mostly inspired by these posts that I modified so they could work how I wanted to. The whole script is a little bit messy, but seems to work and I haven't seen any problems so far. Thanks
Anyone else participating in the current 1-bit jam or did in previous ones? I usually don't join such big jams, but the theme on this one (Tower) inspired me for a little silly idea. And since the main limitation is 1-bit, it can be a great jam for Decker games.
Here's the link of the jam if anyone else wants to join: 1-BIT JAM #4
This seems to work exactly how I wanted to, thank you! I see in the exemple that it evaluates what is written in the input and I've tried to modify the code so that if a specific word or phrase is written in the input, that it would say a specific answer in the log, but I don't quite understant the code enough to make something that works. And I was wondering if this technique would also works with triggering events, like to toggle other widgets in the card of for alerts?
Hi, I'm thinking of making a small text adventure game with a parser, a little bit like Zork and games like that. So far, I found this post to make a parser with a button next to it. But I was wondering if it was possible to make a parser input without the button, like if you could press the return key in the field widget to check the words in it. I'm guessing that since the field widget already use the return key to go to the next line in the widget, I'd need to replace that action with the parser input, but I'm a bit clueless how to do that, if it's possible.
