Adventure

This project started as framework for building simple text based adventures. The scenes were stored in an xml file. I thought it would be cool to have images and sounds associated with the scenes, so I added a UI. When editing the xml file got tedious, I decided to add the graphical editor. You can edit the story if you know the password. Next I would like to add support for keeping track of found items and hit points. This story is based on a adventure in Dragon Magazine back in 1980. This framework can also be used for educational purposes.
