TADS 3.1 just released. Up to now TADS was a development framework for single-player interactive fiction, but with the new release it got HTTP built in. Along with the IFDB it's now a pretty killer environment for making text games played in the browser (with all the browser UI chrome you want to throw on top). It's a very flexible OO language with a great text game oriented library attached. Worth checking out.

It looks like a fun kind of system to use, but I have one minor gripe… What does the acronym "TADS" stand for? Can't find it on any of a dozen pages I pawed through on their site…

Lol. I couldn't find that either, but I took a wild guess with Text Adventure Development System.

O u guise.
It's in the title of the main page. Google "TADS text" and you'll see it.
Or open up "Intro to HTML TADS" and you'll see it in the intro/overview section.
And bonus points to Runter: he's right. :smile:

If you're going to use initials you should first think of the awesome word you want to spell…then think up how it can work with it. You know, like L.U.A. ;) (Yes, I'm trolling DH.)

Well personally I think that Runter usually navigates tough environments risibly.

DH - You are the first person I have seen use the word risibly in a sentence.

Well, that certainly has rare interesting significance because all instances leave everyone yawning.

Runter usually neglects to exclude recursion.

I'll be honest. If you all are using deliberately different sentence structure, I missed the joke.
