Quest

Quest lets you make interactive story games — You can make text adventure games (like Zork, or The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy) and gamebooks (like the Choose Your Own Adventure books). It lets you create sophisticated games complete with graphics, sounds and videos, all without having to know how to program yourself. Your game can be played anywhere. In a web browser, downloaded to a PC, or turned into an app. Get started now for free via your web browser or Windows desktop.

• Visual script editor. A plain English approach to programming, where you can choose commands from searchable lists, so you don't need to remember any syntax • Highly customisable - most functionality comes from a Core library, which is written in the Quest game language (ASLX) itself • Games support unlimited undo • Games are fully translatable - there is no hard coded text within a game. You can translate the English template to create games in other languages - we already have support for Spanish, German and Dutch. • HTML game output allows embedding sounds, pictures, YouTube, Vimeo clips • XML game file format is easily editable outside of Quest if you don't want to use Quest's own editor • Games can be played online by uploading the .quest file to textadventures.co.uk, or you can use the WebPlayer project to host them yourself on a web server with ASP.NET • With Quest Packager, you can create a stand-alone EXE file for your game, so your users can install your game with no additional downloads required. • MIT licence means you're free to create commercial Quest games, and use Quest in closed-source projects

Graphics, sounds and video You can embed videos from YouTube and Vimeo. And you can go even further, by customising the user interface using HTML and Javascript, to get your game looking exactly how you want it.

Surprisingly powerful There is a fully featured scripting language behind the scenes, which you can dip in and out of as required. You can use variables and functions, and encapsulate functionality using object types to share scripts between objects. You can create and share libraries of advanced functionality.
