If anyone is interested, Bob Bates (yes, that one) has been working on a new text adventure. An actual one. With a parser.
(The only downside is that it's written in TADS, not Hugo. Yeah, nobody's perfect.)
Since I told him that you're a trustworthy bunch of cut-throats, I'm now looking if anyone of you is interested in joining the as-of-yet-non-existent beta testing team. In other words, you'd be the first to test it, and we want to keep it small at this point.
If you're interested, drop me an email! (realnc@gmail.com)

It's still semi-secret for now, which is why I posted here and avoided larger places like planet-if.com and intfiction.org. So for now, don't spread it around yet :-)Ice Cream Jonsey wrote:Should we spread the word?
