| Genevieve asks, "What are we playing, o master?" | ||
| DavidW says, "Well, if I have my way, we'll be playing the three games entered in the recent speed-if." | ||
| DavidW says, "(one game of which is mine)" | ||
| Taleslinger says, "ooh, maybe I'll watch" | ||
| DavidW says, "We should probably play Leaner's game first, then mine, then Peregrine's." | ||
| Roger arrives, full of funk, but no fun. | ||
| Sparkle arrives, full of funk, but no fun. | ||
| Genevieve arrives, full of funk, but no fun. | ||
| Taleslinger arrives, full of fun, but no funk. | ||
| Sparkle says, "Hello." | ||
| DavidW says, "hi Sparkle" | * jenrexrode has joined the channel. | |
| Sparkle asks, "What's happening currently?" | ||
| jenrexrode arrives, full of fun and funk. | ||
| DavidW says, "For those who haven't been in a ClubFloyd session before, you should first @join #clubfloyd and talk there, not in the Toyshop itself." | ||
| Genevieve says, "As far as I know, we're going to be playing the three speed IF games which people submitted to DavidW this past week." | * Sparkle has joined the channel. | |
| DavidW says (to Sparkle), "yay, thank you." | ||
| DavidW says, "Sessions are recorded by the PerrySimm character in the Toyshop, and having our chat in the channel helps make the session webpage look nicer." | ||
| Lionheart arrives, ready to play with the toys. | DavidW asks, "Should we wait to see if Jacqueline will join us after all or just get to it?" | |
| Sparkle asks, ""What games are we playing?" | ||
| DavidW says, "First, I'd like us to play "A dead man's hug" by "Leaner Gilts"." | ||
| jenrexrode says, "I figured she was sleeping in based on that message." | ||
| DavidW says, "The games we are playing today were submitted to the Speed-IF Potato Peeler event which asked everyone to put a potato peeler somewhere in their games." | ||
| Genevieve says, "Yeah, I think Jacq is probably still asleep, poor thing. Sounds like she's not well right now." | ||
| DavidW says, "okay. Then I'll upload the game and we can start." | ||
| DavidW says, "er, that is, the games are already uploaded. I just need to tell Floyd to start." | ||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "load sleepmask deadmanshug" | ||
Floyd ] Laboratory of Dementia Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | You are being chased by an angry cassowary. Floyd | But all you are trying to do is peel this potato.

Floyd ] Sewers Floyd | > Floyd | > PRY GRATE WITH PEELER Floyd | Floyd | It's a few minutes of fidgety work, with a few pinched fingers, but Floyd | you finally manage to lift the sewer grate using the peeler. You stare Floyd | for a moment, unblinking, into the dark. Then you hear the cassowary Floyd | behind you and jump, instinctively. Floyd | Floyd | Sewers Floyd | Filthy sewers. Floyd | Floyd | The potato seems to be stuck to the wall. Floyd | Floyd | > | Roger says, "I know I've often been unable to get my fingers into my crack" | |

There is a faint, distant rushing Floyd | of water for a second before it thunders out of the pipe, blowing you Floyd | and the potato away, further down, down into the depths of the Earth. Floyd | Floyd | After what fells like eons of tumbling through flooded tunnels, first Floyd | brick then rock, being slammed into the craggy edges and falling down Floyd | waterfalls forever hidden in darkness, you're finally flushed into ... Floyd | Floyd | underground Lake Floyd | You're swimming in eternal darkness. There is the faintest of light to Floyd | the east. Floyd | Floyd | > | * Areeb has joined the channel. | |

Blood forms on his chest, and with a terrible croak the Floyd | cassowary's bloody beak pokes through it. Floyd | You take a clumsy step towards the back of the boat. Floyd | The terrible bird steps over the Fairyman's body with casual Floyd | indifference, and begins to stalk towards you. Floyd | Without a second thought, you jump into the depths. Floyd | Floyd | You sink, slowly, to the bottom, and there you find what you expected Floyd | all along...

The most common of these, the southern cassowary, is the Floyd | third-tallest and second-heaviest living bird, smaller only than the Floyd | ostrich and emu. Cassowaries feed mainly on fruit, although all Floyd | species are truly omnivorous and will take a range of other plant Floyd | food, including shoots and grass seeds, in addition to fungi, Floyd | invertebrates, and small vertebrates. Cassowaries are very shy, but Floyd | when provoked they are capable of inflicting injuries, occasionally Floyd | fatal, to dogs and people.

| Genevieve says, "I don't even know if I'd be able to pick up Inform. But I'm going to try a few of my ideas out here before I go about doing that, because I know how I would implement them." | ||

| Genevieve exits the vehicle. | ||
| Genevieve says, "Hrmph. That's all well and good, but one can't move said vehicle." | DavidW asks, "hm. perhaps it was supposed to work like your taxi phone but Guest0 didn't code that part?" | |
| Genevieve says, "Could be." | ||
| DavidW says, "It really should take you somewhere." | ||
| Genevieve says, "One can't even cuddle the cuddly walrus in here. What good are these objects anyway? :-P" | ||
| DavidW says, "oh, wait. There's a lock on it." | ||
| DavidW says, "Looks like it's supposed to take you to a place called In Vehicle where there's a guestbook." | ||
| Areeb enters a generic vehicle. | Genevieve says, "Oh, yes, you can get in there alright, but you can't move the vehicle when you're inside." | |
| DavidW says, "oh I see." | ||
| Genevieve says, "Which reminds me: if you see that I haven't implemented an action in one of my areas that you think should be there, do let me know. I think it's possile to interact with most of the furniture now: sit/lie on it, look at it, that sort of thing." | ||
| Areeb gets out. | ||
| Areeb exits the vehicle. | Genevieve says, "I haven't made objects for everything because that would be time-consuming and silly, but I do have some generic actions." | |
| Genevieve says, "So even if you just see furniture in the room description, and not actual objects, you should be able to interact with most of it. The stuff that makes sense, anyway." | ||
| DavidW says, "sure" | ||
| DavidW says, "I remember an old ADRIFT game where it was almost entirely coded in terms of actions but without most of the objects." | ||
| DavidW says, "So it would say there's a cat in a tree with a ladder leaning against it and a woman who wants her cat, but the cat isn't implemented, nor is the woman." | ||
| Genevieve nods. | ||
| Genevieve says, "Oh, and I want to play Humbug now, but I don't think I can. I hate you. :-P" | ||
| DavidW says, "Aw, sorry!" | ||
| DavidW says, "I haven't played Humbug in ages and ages." | ||
| DavidW says, "But that hedgehog thing, that I remembered." | ||
| Genevieve says, "I'm just yanking your chain, David. :-) I do want to play Humbug, but I can't imagine actually hating you. You're far too nice." | ||
| DavidW :blush: | ||
| Areeb asks, "Why can't you play?" | ||
| Genevieve says, "That game drove me crazy years ago! I always wanted to win it, and I never could." | ||
| DavidW says, "It's an old DOS game, I think." | ||
| Genevieve says, "That it is." | ||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "quit" | ||

I don't know if Floyd can do DOS games or not?" | |
| Genevieve says, "Oh man, if someone could make Graham Cluley's games Floydable, I would be, like, eternally grateful." | ||
| Genevieve says, "Not to mention absolutely ecstatic." | ||
| DavidW asks, "What was CosmoServe written for?" | ||
| DavidW asks, "Or was that a port?" | ||
| Areeb says, "A quick google search for "Humbug game" revealed multiple websites with DOS emulators on them" | ||
| DavidW says (to Areeb), "There's an extra complication. Genevieve is blind." | ||
| Genevieve says, "Thing is though, Dos emulators are not very accessible with my screen reading software." | ||
| Genevieve says, "Not accessible at all, more like." | ||
| Genevieve says, "CosmoServe was written for the Masters edition of AGT." | ||
| Areeb says, "Oh, that definitely makes matters more complicated" | ||
| says, "I could try to upload Humbug to Floyd regardless, but I don't know if Floyd can deal with a DOS game at all." | ||
| Genevieve says, "Yep... Believe me, I've looked into this. :-) There are some old Dos games that I still adore, simplistic though they are by today's standards, and would love to play again. And I think you may be right, David." | ||
| Areeb asks, "How does Floyd function?" | ||
| Genevieve says, "Even after having played tons of IF, I still say Graham Cluley's are the best games I've ever played... even if they don't always make much sense. :-) They're just so clever." | ||
| DavidW says (to Areeb), "I'm not completely sure on the details, but there has to be a bot program behind Floyd." | ||
| Genevieve says, "Like, the premise of Jacaranda Jim is really quite ridiculous, but the game had such endearing qualities for me that I didn't care." | ||
| DavidW says, "I think either Jota or vimes (or both?) know how Floyd works." | ||
| Genevieve says, "Mind you, I continue to maintain that the best-written game I ever played was Anchorhead by Michael Gentry." | ||
| Peregrine says, "A game which I keep meaning to play and always forget to. :P" | ||
| Genevieve says, "I really liked the writing in So Far by Andrew Plotkin though, too." | ||
| Areeb says (to DavidW), "Yeah a bot makes sense. I don't think it would have a dos emulator on hand though. That would take a ton of resources." | ||
| Genevieve says, "Oh my gosh, you really, really should play Anchorhead. It's soooo good. If you don't mind being scared out of your pants, that is :-)" | ||
| Genevieve says, "Also, the game does deal with really sensitive subjects like rape and incest. But I think they're understandable given the subject matter of the game. They're not nice, but they make sense to me." | ||
| Peregrine says, "I'm not easily shocked these days, heh" | ||
| Genevieve says, "Well, I had pretty fundamentalist Christian views at the time when I played the game, and I wasn't shocked, so it can't be that bad. :-P" | ||
| Genevieve says, "First played, I should say. It was nearly twenty years ago." | ||
| Peregrine whistles. | ||
| Genevieve says, "It did give me quite a few spine-chilling moments though: especially close to the end." | ||
| Genevieve says, "Little Blue Men, the other game I know of by Gentry, is very different. Not scary at all." | ||
| Areeb goes home. | Peregrine asks, "I've heard it's misanthropic, though?" | |
| Genevieve says, "Um, yes. Very." | ||
| Genevieve says, "Also, the language is not for small fry." | ||
| Peregrine says, "*?!#" | ||
| Genevieve asks, "SO, I assume we're done in here?" | ||
| DavidW says, "yes, I think so." | ||
