SilverGlulxe - Interactive Fiction in Silverlight(chriscavanagh.wordpress.com)

submitted by BobStrogg(1033) 3 years, 2 months ago

Interactive Fiction has come a long way since the text adventures I played in the 80’s (H2G2 and Leather Goddessses of Phobos!). The original Infocom games used their own virtual machine so could be ported to many platforms with minimal effort. Over the years the bytecode format was enhanced, eventually supporting graphics. Other virtual machines were developed too, including Glulx which aimed to overcome limitations of the Z-machine formats. This post includes a Silverlight demo using the FyreVM library.
