Sharpee Lantern

Just stopped by to share this: Sharpee Lantern.

The spec-driven work has been superseded. I’m still having fun.

(though someone might point out I keep building tools to avoid actually writing games)

What is it?

Without going to the blog entry…

Lantern is a Sharpee writing tool that infers game objects from your prose. You just write and Lantern “figures out what makes it a game”. The inference engine is based on previously identified IF “design patterns” with associated Sharpee code block patterns. The IWE (interactive writing environment) will leave questions and world building space for the writer to answer/fill in. If the story is “runnable” Lantern will notify the user of that and allow the user to run the story directly.
