Floyd ] Middle Boardwalk Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | You are here on a slow day. Floyd | Ocean Beach Floyd | An Interactive Landscape by James Banks Floyd | Release 4 / Serial number 190927 / Inform 7 build 6M62 (I6/v6.33 lib Floyd | 6/12N) Floyd | Floyd | (type HELP (then press key) for more information) Floyd | Floyd | (pauses are part of the game) Floyd | Floyd | Middle Boardwalk Floyd | Cliff to the east, beach to the west.

| DavidW says (to Floyd), "help" | |||
Floyd ] Middle Boardwalk Floyd | > Floyd | > HELP Floyd | Floyd | Type in your command at the > prompt, then press the key. Floyd | Keep it as simple as you can. Floyd | Floyd | VERB NOUN (e.g. "examine boardwalk") or just VERB (e.g. "fidget") is a Floyd | good bet. Floyd | Floyd | You can examine with "examine THING" or "x THING". You can "go north" Floyd | or just "north" or "n" -- likewise with south, east, and west. Floyd | Floyd | You can "get", "give", and "drop" things. What you have is accessible Floyd | with "inventory" or "i". You can "look" or "l" -- try it and see what Floyd | it does. "Watch sunset" works, at the right time of day. Floyd | Floyd | You can't "talk" to people, but you can "ask PERSON about NOUN" or Floyd | "tell PERSON about NOUN" or "show NOUN to PERSON". You can "smell", Floyd | "listen", and "touch". Floyd | Floyd | You can learn a little more about this game by typing "about". Floyd | Floyd | > | Knight_Otu says, "I was about to say, hopefully push spaces pauses rather than real time." | ||

Floyd | MAN: I don't know what the best time of day is,
Floyd | myself.
Floyd | WOMAN: I like sunset best.
Floyd | YOU: Why is that?
Floyd | WOMAN: At sunset, I feel like the day is letting itself not be a day.
Floyd | YOU: And that's when things are their best?
Floyd | WOMAN: When they let themselves
Floyd | not be themselves.
Floyd | YOU <to the man>: What do you think?
Floyd | MAN: I think it's good when a day is a day. I think that the day is
Floyd | always a day, even at night.
Floyd | WOMAN: I agree.
Floyd | YOU: How do you agree with him?
Floyd | WOMAN: I don't know.
Floyd | MAN: She agrees with me.
Floyd | You consider how this could be true.
Floyd | You watch the sea and the distant people one by one leaving the
Floyd | boardwalk and moving onto the beach.
Floyd | MAN: I remember one time, I was riding in a car on the way to the
Floyd | historical district. We were talking about how to pronounce German
Floyd | words.
Floyd | WOMAN: I remember one time, I rode on a jet ski with a man and fell
Floyd | off into the reservoir.
Floyd | MAN: I remember one time, I was reading a book and it took me 15
Floyd | minutes to read each page.
Floyd | WOMAN: I remember one time, I wrote a short story but it didn't go
Floyd | anywhere.
Floyd | YOU: I don't remember anything.
Floyd | MAN: You are living in the moment.
Floyd | Silence.
Floyd | WOMAN: I would like to sing an evening hymn.
Floyd | MAN <to you>: Would you like to sing?
Floyd | YOU: I don't know.
Floyd | MAN: We'll choose a song.
Floyd | The woman says a number and the man agrees. They pick up hymn books
Floyd | and set the pitch for each other with a note.
