Developer’s Description

By Campbell Wild

Create your own text adventures (interactive fiction).

ADRIFT Developer is a Windows application that allows you to create complex interactive fiction games quickly and easily. It allows you to concentrate on the story by making everything else easy, such as having all options available in dropdown lists, rather than you having to spend a lot of time just trying to figure out how to code the game. Games in ADRIFT are created by adding locations, objects, characters and tasks. These can be organised into folders, allowing you to group things together in a logical manner. Layouts can be created quickly and easily using the 3D map, allowing you to drag, rotate, resize and manipulate rooms to fit your requirements.

Excellent interactive fiction creator - without coding.
adriftsteJanuary 18, 2012
Pros
Easy to begin creating. 3D map. Finished works can be played in a web browser. Active forum for help and assistance. Developer (Campbell Wild) is active on the forum and responsive to queries and suggestions. Graphics and sound. Standard library is fully customisable. No programming required. Regular updates for bugfixes and enhancements. Treaty of Babel compliant.
Cons
Manual needs more work. Built in standard library needs enhancing. Map doesn't work in web browser.
Summary
An excellent system to create interactive fiction that is improving with each update.
An easy to use IF developer with lots of potential

Pros
Easy to create your own IF. You don't have to learn code but can almost go right ahead and create your game. Once you get the hang of it, this is a great tool with graphich and sound options. When your game is ready, you can save it as an .exe file or as a blorb.
Cons
Can be a little tricky to get started with. Some commands are not all that clear. At the time of writing 16/1-2012 The manual isn't all that clear.
Summary
Absolutely worth a try. I've been happy with it.
