So, I’m a game grumps fan, and lately the videos I’ve watched were of Dan’s playthrough of the space quest games.
I’m wondering if there’s such a way to make a game like it in Gamemaker. Not a full on text adventure, but something with a input bar for executing commands.
I’m thinking of doing a game similar to Oregon Trail but with a steam engine escaping being scrapped. Something for the train enthusiasts.
I’d want to have puzzles, many possible deaths, and items and whatnot.
Somethings, like items, could be done with arrays of course, But I’m more so curious how the text input would work. Would I need to have cade to search for keywords and have keywords like ‘use’ and ‘on’?
