ClubFloyd Transcript:
Brave Bear by John Evans
Finding Light by Abigail Jazwiec
As played on ifMUD on October 31, 2021

The idea behind ClubFloyd is that each week at a pre-arranged time, a group of people meet online to cooperatively play a game of interactive fiction.

Below is a transcript of Brave Bear written by John Evans, and Finding Light written by Abigail Jazwiec. Brave Bear and Finding Light were both released as part of the 2021 Interactive Fiction Competition, in which they took 46th and 18th place, respectively. You can learn more about the games, including how to download them, by visiting the IFDB pages: Finding Light, and Brave Bear.

WARNING! Below you will find a transcript of people playing these games, and it goes without saying that the transcript is full of spoilers. So, if you've never played these games, and think you might like to at some point, I do not recommend reading any further. Instead, you might want to return to the interactive fiction page.

CF |
CF |
CF | Bed
CF | Owner's bed. Many quilts and blankets cover it in soft, colorful
CF | layers. Dim light comes from somewhere outside.
CF |
CF | > DavidW says, "A Bear"
DavidW says, "A Bear's Night Out starts in a bed too."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x me"
CF ] Bed Score: 0 Moves: 1
CF |
CF | > X ME
CF |
CF | Your body is small, and soft. But your heart is brave. You are a Brave
CF | Bear.
CF |
CF | > DavidW asks, "I assume we're a teddy bear?"
Knight_Otu says, "Sounds like it to me."
MoyTravis says, "That seems likely."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x bed"

CF |
CF | You can't see any such thing.

DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x quilts"
CF ] Bed Score: 0 Moves: 1

CF |

CF |
CF | > Knight_Otu says, "Or a cat with delusions of grandbear."
DavidW says, "I vote OUT"
Knight_Otu says, "Sure."
DavidW says, "We could be a Care Bear."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "out"
CF ] Owner's Room Score: 0 Moves: 2
CF |
CF | > OUT
CF |
CF | You crawl off the bed, and your soft body lands on the floor.
CF |
CF | Owner's Room
CF | Owner's room. Great, crisscrossing wooden shelves are filled with
CF | books. There is a great bed with many blankets. A device on the wall
CF | sheds dim light. North is a door to the hallway.
CF |
CF | The exit from this room is blocked by a dark phantom.
CF |
CF | >
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x phantom"
CF ] Owner's Room Score: 0 Moves: 3
CF |
CF | > X PHANTOM
CF |
CF | It is a cloud, but also an image. It is darkness, and you cannot see
CF | through it. Yet there is something within...a door closes, the door to
CF | the Owner's room, closed by a woman. Then it is open again; then it is
CF | closed again. The same action repeated over and over. Each time the
CF | door is closed, you feel fear, and sadness.
CF |
CF | There is a sense of wrongness about the dark image. Your heart swells
CF | in readiness as you regard it. You feel you must deal with the image,
CF | somehow.
CF |
CF | > Knight_Otu exclaims, "Mom, no need to check every minute!"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x device"
CF ] Owner's Room Score: 0 Moves: 4
CF |
CF | > X DEVICE
CF |
CF | The Nightlight is here. Shaped vaguely like an elephant, it rests
CF | perennially in its wall socket. Day or night, it sheds a comforting
CF | light. Even one as brave as yourself feels uplifted in its presence of
CF | this friend.
CF |
CF | >
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x shelves"
CF ] Owner's Room Score: 0 Moves: 5
CF |
CF | > X SHELVES
CF |
CF | The shelves are pale wood, arranged in a crisscross pattern of
CF | squares. The shelves hold books, although many are empty; you recall
CF | seeing friends there, but many have been packed away.
CF |
CF | >
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x books"
CF ] Owner's Room Score: 0 Moves: 6
CF |
CF | > X BOOKS
CF |
CF | The shelves are pale wood, arranged in a crisscross pattern of

DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "talk to nightlight"
CF ] Owner's Room Score: 0 Moves: 7
CF |
CF | > TALK TO NIGHTLIGHT
CF |
CF | "I...I cannot do much," the Nightlight says. "I will light your way.
CF | Please...please make things better again..."
CF |
CF | >
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "talk to phantom"
CF ] Owner's Room Score: 0 Moves: 8
CF |
CF | > TALK TO PHANTOM
CF |
CF | Your action does not affect the image. You continue to feel anxiety
CF | radiating from it...but you feel bravery swelling from your own heart
CF | in answer. You must deal with this thing.
CF |
CF | >
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "i"
CF ] Owner's Room Score: 0 Moves: 9
CF |
CF | > I
CF |
CF | You are carrying nothing.
CF |
CF | > MoyTravis says, "I don't know if the semi-rhyming was intentional in the "device" but more games should do rhyming or meter in their text."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "hit phantom"
CF ] Owner's Room Score: 1 Moves: 10
CF |
CF | > HIT PHANTOM
CF |
CF | You are not a cowering toy. You do not shrink from darkness. Your
CF | bravery comforts and inspires. You are a Brave Bear.
CF |
CF | You attack the phantom, not just with your soft arms, but with your
CF | bravery. It dissipates immediately. The fear and loneliness vanish.
CF |
CF | [Your score has just gone up by one point.]

DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "l"
CF ] Owner's Room Score: 1 Moves: 11

CF |
CF |
CF | Owner's Room
CF | Owner's room. Great, crisscrossing wooden shelves are filled with
CF | books. There is a great bed with many blankets. A device on the wall
CF | sheds dim light. North is a door to the hallway.
CF |

DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "n"
CF ] Hallway Score: 1 Moves: 12
CF |
CF | > N
CF |
CF |
CF | Hallway
CF | A hallway at the top of the stairs, running east-west. West is the
CF | mezzanine overlooking the lower floor. South is Owner's room. There is
CF | a door to the attic to the northwest, standing open. North is the
CF | bathroom door. Northeast and southeast are more doors. There is a
CF | light switch, and there is a light.
CF |
CF | The way west is blocked by another dark image.
CF |
CF | > DavidW says, "that's a lotta exits"
Knight_Otu says, "Yeah."
MoyTravis says, "Mrmyep. That sure is."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x phantom"
CF ] Hallway Score: 1 Moves: 13
CF |
CF | > X PHANTOM
CF |
CF | Another dark cloud blocks the way west. You can see flashing eyes, you
CF | can hear far-off shouting. Sadness, and fear--not vague anxiety, but
CF | sharper, more immediate.
CF |
CF | More wrongess, but stronger. Can you deal with it? You must...but you
CF | may need help.
CF |
CF | >
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "turn on light"
CF ] Hallway Score: 1 Moves: 14
CF |
CF | > TURN ON LIGHT
CF |
CF | That's not something you can switch.
CF |
CF | >
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "turn on switch"
CF ] Hallway Score: 1 Moves: 15
CF |
CF | > TURN ON SWITCH
CF |
CF | You cannot reach the light switch. In any case, it seems a good idea
CF | to keep things well lit.
CF |

DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x light"
CF ] Hallway Score: 1 Moves: 16
CF |
CF | > X LIGHT
CF |
CF | A pane of glass set into the ceiling, with something behind it

CF |

CF |
CF | You press your soft arms against the door, but it doesn't yield.
CF | You're sure Owner and family are not in there, though, and you also
CF | suspect none of your friends are.

DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "open door"

DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "nw"
CF ] Attic Score: 2 Moves: 21
CF |
CF | > NW
CF |
CF |
CF | Attic
CF | The attic would feel spacious were it not for the stacks and piles of
CF | boxes. The ceiling and floor are unfinished wood. A light shines from
CF | the ceiling. Off to the west there are great open pits of gray
CF | material, something called 'insulation'. The exit is a set of rough
CF | wooden steps leading down, in the east wall.
CF |
CF | A long-armed Monkey is here.
CF |
CF | You see a Transforming Robot figure, off on the western side of the
CF | attic, past the insulation pits. They are gazing at you with
CF | trepidation.
CF |
CF | The Monkey raises themself from the floor, then gives a wave. "Hello!"
CF | the Monkey says. "Something is going on...maybe we should...stick
CF | together?"
CF |
CF | [Your score has just gone up by one point.]
CF |
CF | > Knight_Otu says, "Yeah I guess."
MoyTravis says, "Cool we're doing a Toy Story thing I guess."
Knight_Otu says, "(I am sure that "There are other, inconsequential doors" would be perfectly acceptable in this game.)"
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x monkey"
CF ] Attic Score: 2 Moves: 22
CF |
CF | > X MONKEY
CF |
CF | The Monkey is not stuffed; they are hollow, meant to have a hand
CF | inside. Their fur is soft. Their arms and legs are long, the ends
CF | sporting small pads that can stick one to another, forming a sound and
CF | comforting embrace. Noticing your scrutiny, the Monkey waves a long
CF | arm.
CF |
CF | >
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "talk to monkey"
CF ] Attic Score: 2 Moves: 23
CF |
CF | > TALK TO MONKEY
CF |

CF | The Monkey waves their long arms.
CF |

DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "ask monkey about phantom"
CF ] Attic Score: 2 Moves: 24
CF |
CF | > ASK MONKEY ABOUT PHANTOM
CF |

CF | "Haha...get it?" They wave and give a weak laugh.
CF |
CF | >
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x robot"
CF ] Attic Score: 2 Moves: 25
CF |
CF | > X ROBOT
CF |
CF | You remember that someone was upset when Owner received the
CF | Transforming Robot as a gift. Something about gender; Owner and
CF | Owner's family weren't upset, though. While Owner has never been much
CF | for action or war play, the Robot became as loved as any friend. The
CF | Transforming Robot is smaller even than yourself, and they can quickly
CF | transform from a robot to a car that may be raced across the floor.
CF |
CF | > DavidW says, "yeah, gender issues became obvious with Monkey's description."
DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x boxes"
CF ] Attic Score: 2 Moves: 26

DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "x pits"
CF ] Attic Score: 2 Moves: 27
CF |
CF | > X PITS
CF |
CF | The floor simply does not exist in certain places here, leaving a
CF | strange gray fluff exposed. You know it to be called "insulation". You
CF | are sure that anyone falling into this stuff would be Lost.

CF | breath, a small inkling of light drawn out of the sacred darkness some
CF | twenty years ago, barely capable of discerning stars from specks. You
CF | only remember shapes when the old priestess held your ethereal form up
CF | to her face and blew life into you...
CF |
CF | And then there was color, Aurel, and nothing else.
CF |
CF | That is how "familiars" of your world are made: you are pulled from
CF | the fabric of the universe and given to a child learning the ways of
CF | the chosen tribe to guard and accompany throughout their life. You can
CF | remember the green-eyed Aurel as clear as day as the years went by,
CF | taking you both far from home and around the world...
CF |
CF | But now you remember fire and smoke.
CF |
CF | You remember the raiders and how they came barrelling through the
CF | night into the village, burning people's homes and slaughtering
CF | civilians. And Aurel... You remember his face, smudged with ash, and
CF | his hand grabbing onto yours and- and then pain and running and
CF | nothing.
CF |
CF | When you wake up, Aurel is missing, and you are alone. You have to
CF | find him...
