## text adventure game
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
My text-adventure game was (first and foremost a struggle and) an
|
|
|
|
|
attempt to dive a little bit into the world of python and deal
|
|
|
|
|
peacefully with the potential trauma of coding. The first unsuccessful
|
|
|
|
|
try started by making a map on paper with all the possible rooms,
|
|
|
|
|
corridors, spaces and the potential inputs of the player. It was proved
|
|
|
|
|
to be a too ambitious plan though. So this was the time when the
|
|
|
|
|
super(de)construction game was born! My intention was to make a fan
|
|
|
|
|
fiction text adventure game(!) of the marxist superstructure theory.
|
|
|
|
|
There are three basic rooms where the player can navigate : the
|
|
|
|
|
Base-ment, the Apparatus and the Megaroom. People can grab specific
|
|
|
|
|
\"objects\" from each room and check their inventory (for example you
|
|
|
|
|
can have unpaidlabour, church, mostlywhitemen from base-ment, apparatus
|
|
|
|
|
and megaroom respectively in the same bag!). The aim of the game is to
|
|
|
|
|
accumulate enough points in order to bring eventually the revolution and
|
|
|
|
|
win. The fermentation and the radicalization happen only in the
|
|
|
|
|
base-ment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Will you be part of the revolutionary class?
