Undum

Undum (undum.com) is an open source HTML-5 compliant hypertext interactive fiction system. Which is a terse way of saying that it is a chunk of freely available and editable code for making games with, where those games involve reading chunks of text and making decisions about what to do next. The games are designed for running on modern browsers (such as Firefox 3 or above, Google Chrome, Safari and Internet Explorer 9).

    I’ve added block-form options for where to go next in an Undum story. To sit alongside the hyperlink style.

    From emails I get, I know that not everyone likes hypertext options all the time (although Undum is a hypertext game engine), so I’ve added this as another option. It simply involves you writing your choices in an unordered list (ul tag in HTML) with the options class. The code does the rest. The documentation is updated, and live on undum.com, and the English version of the tutorial shows it in action towards the end.

    The changes are checked into github.
