Goby is a Ruby framework for creating text RPGs. In the past 30+ years, the fine and respectable craft of text RPG development has been forgotten in favor of flashing lights and CGI cutscenes; however, there was once a time when the video game experience meant more than Dynamic Super Resolution™.
Text RPG development is a relatively fast and simple process. That's why our mission is to provide the highest degree of functionality, utilizing object-oriented design principles, so that users spend the majority of their time on the fun part of video game development: content creation!
Tutorials and examples are coming soon. Complete documentation is available. In order to start using Goby in your application, follow these instructions:
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'goby'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install goby
