I haven't worked on this project in awhile because I got sidetracked by other things, but it's still on the backburner. One day I'll pick it up again. I think Text Adventure Games are ripe for learning Python Object-Oriented Programming (something I'm interested in learning). Fell free to download the source code and play around with it, modify it, whatever. It is a beginner's learning project. Happy Programming! -- b h a a l u u at g m a i l dot c o m Kid on Bus: What are you gonna do today, Napoleon? Napoleon Dynamite: Whatever I feel like I wanna do. Gosh!
