Is it harder to progam in Hugo? or is it simple?
Hey, thanks man, I appreciate that. Hugo was, in the big scheme of things, easy to learn. It's pretty straightforward. In fact, if you do end up doing some Inform 6 programming, a lot of the syntax is fairly similar. One thing I really like about Hugo is that you can really tell it was developed by someone who had experienced the strict rules of other languages. There's no semicolons, you can choose whether or not to put parenthesis around a routine name if it has no arguments, that sort of thing. I love it. It's definitely my favorite language to program in.
Right now, like i said, I am studying catch phrases for the I7...
Oki as for the music, I am making a doomish bm sound.. like Sunn, except more demonic, like Thergothon... That will be what SARGAAHL will be like... Nightblood, will be more atmospheric, and until get my keyboard (synth), I am putting that in the back burner (Nightblood)... But for now, it's just SARGAAHL...
I am not 100% certain that Inform 7 supports audio... you know what, I am really out of the loop when it comes to the state of affairs in Inform. But I imagine that if it is not currently supported, it will be.
