Great news from vaporware’s post on rec.arts.int-fiction!  Inform 7 will have a new release on or shortly after April 28th!

Items slated for the new build will include:

  • Tidier user interface
  • Easily publish Inform works to the web, including a release mode
    that creates a playable web site using Parchment
  • Many language restrictions removed, and more expressiveness in
    talking about kinds, phrases, relations, etc.
  • Many Standard Rules actions changed to provide default behavior
    closer to what modern authors tend to want (automatically opening
    doors, handling TAKE ALL more naturally, and so on)
  • More than 250 bug reports resolved

Can’t wait!
