Text Based Game Engine for Java / News: Recent posts

So, I have cleared up the files and I am writing a tutorial right now. Release time is still set for Saturday, June 11, 2011, before 5:00 PM. I didn't finish action compatibility, but that will be out in the next release. The next post in news will be in pre-alpha!

The target date is Saturday, the 11th of June, before 5:00 PM (Central Time (USA))

The finished game, if properly set up, will be complete with a GUI and a working system for adding rooms and features.... read more
