Was checking out the latest @notimetoplay newsletter and it mentions #Texture, which seems like a pretty straightforward text adventure, browser-based tool.
Was a bit worried it was all stuck on their servers, but you can download your games as HTML files.
@gamemakingtools @notimetoplay ooooh wow. great list of games-creators here. there's jake elliott of Kentucky Route Zero, Robert Yang, and more folks https://www.texturewriter.com/
@exquisitecorp @gamemakingtools I definitely recommend trying out Texture at least once. Beware that it works best with short text.
@gamemakingtools @notimetoplay hahah i was just reading this yesterday as well! I want to check this out. Thanks for the link
