Star Anise Chronicles: Escape from the Chamber of Despair
Added 2019-12-18 08:17:08 +0000 UTCWell, this kinda got away from me and took four days rather than one, and still has a bunch of stuff I wish I'd been able to do to it, but such is interactive fiction I guess!
Anyway here's some interactive fiction, and the first Star Anise Chronicle to actually be released! Enjoy! I'll probably do source text for $4 folks or something in the near future.
(The web player seems to be afflicted by a bizarre Chrome bug that makes the text jump around while you're typing, sorry! Looks harmless, but if it's annoying, try not-Chrome or download the story file and use a dedicated glulx player.)

Okay, fixed those two problems near immediately. 54/100. I still need name, another treasure and a customer. I don't know what the documents, figurine, pillow and blanket are for. UPDATE: 58/100! Now I need to figure out what to do with this twine. UPDATE: 59/100! Now I need to figure out the syntax for my customer. I'm so close to doing... something!! UPDATE: Winner! With 69/100 points, so I'm not even sure if I *want* to keep playing, haha. I don't have any other good ideas for what to try anyway. Thank you for devving!

2020-03-18 08:20:46 +0000 UTCI'm back again much later, and this time I've gotten to 47/100! I think I need to get a portable light source and figure out how to break the mug, among other more obvious goals related to the shop.

2020-01-03 09:34:38 +0000 UTCManaged to make 53/100, but stuck trying to operate The Machine. Can't figure out how to scan a model in.

2020-01-03 06:55:06 +0000 UTCI think I got stuck at 41/100, but can't find the big flat thing either.

2019-12-18 10:43:20 +0000 UTCIn true IF fashion, I'm stuck at 32/100 points. I think I want to take the cardboard box, cut it up and use it as the surface for the shop, but I can't think of a verb to try and I don't even know if that's correct, but I couldn't find anything else that looks big and flat (and putting the blanket on the shop isn't considered helpful).
