I didn’t have time to finish my text adventure game so I wrote a map editor

Sometimes procrastination work can pay off

Dungeon Loom

You can take a look at dungeon-loom.retrogamecoders.com

On my retro game programming site I have been running a series about writing text adventure games in C64 BASIC. I've got to the point where the game should have more than demo data, and that is where I got stuck.

Using a Spreadsheet for Map Creation

I tried! Nothing helped. Scraps of paper, written notes, even a spreadsheet.

The problem, I think, was the usual ADHD stuff, but also trying to mix the creative with the analytical.

In writing we say "Write Drunk, Edit Sober". It's hard to switch from essentially writing a story with puzzles while also doing math and logic.

So I started writing a tool for my own use and it kind of got out of hand.

Dungeon Loom, my Text Adventure and Dungeon Map Editor

It's a JavaScript web app. Potentially I could package it for desktop using NW.js.

Right now you can place rooms, define the exits for each room, and add the room name, description(s) and any objects a room might contain.

You will notice I said descriptions, that is because there might be a before and after, for example the description for light on and in darkness.

The app exports and imports .JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) files right now. In future I might come back to that, or perhaps instead write post-processors. We shall see, that is a problem for future-Chris.

Anyhoo, try it out and let me know what you think?

Spammer is a race now?

If Hive is done why do you keep spamming us here instead of Blurt which is doing so well LOL

Your friends have shown that Hive is not decentralised it's run by a bunch of old scammers

Again, if it is so bad here why do you stick around?

You are not entitled to anyone's attention so stop your comment spamming. If you didn't spam me I would never know you existed, and I don't give a shit about whatever beef you have with anyone else.

Anyway, I made a browser extension so I will never see any of your shit again - g'bye!

Hello everyone I hope you are all good and well today in this post is some of the evidence to prove my case

If you didn't know I've been getting downvoted for a long time on Hive

They have been trying to bully me with downvotes and words but it doesn't affect me I've been online for over 25 years

So I've dealt with people like this before it's nothing new

But what they are doing is bad Very badi joined steemit like everyone else thinking it offers freedom but I must say steemit offered much more freedom than Hive does

Everyone already knows I only post my own original content I have no need to steal anything from anyone

I've been labelled a lot of things on Hive 😂 by the biggest farmers scammers and downvoters

Actions speak louder than any words do especially when them words are coming from a compolsive liars

I will keep updating this post when I get time

Hello everyone good morning good afternoon good evening where ever you are around the world 🌎 🌍 🌍 🌍 🌍

As many of you know I was downvoted on Hive by the biggest farmers on Hive 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

They think I care about rep on Hive when it means nothing in the real world 😂😂😂😂😂

It's mad how the ones doing the downvoting are farming Hive with armies of alt accounts 😂 😂

They like to talk a whole lot of shit 💩

But they can't Face the truth so in this post you can find the truth

This is part 3 Hive is done please do check out the previous parts

I make one big post soon I think I need to do a few more parts first

The thing is I've been called a spammer and all sorts of things but words mean nothing 😂😂😂😂

Especially when they are coming from scammers farmers downvoting racist people 😂😂😂😂

It's still so hard to believe that blocktrades is behind buildawhale usainvote and other accounts that are actively destroying Hive 😂 😂

Hive has the tech but not the brain's at the top

It's crazy that acidyo tells people about selfvoting whilst selfvoting his shit projects 💩 everyday 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Themarkymark is running the buildawhale comment farm for his master Blocktrades 😂 😂 😂

It's so funny how themarkymark account has a free pass the same as acidyo 😂😂😂😂😂😂

It's not hard to tell who is running Hive 😂😂😂😂😂
