Fabularium - multi-format GLK IF interpreter for Android

[t***@gmail.com]

Hi all

I've recently released an Android GLK implementation, bundled together with terps for all the major IF formats, a la Gargoyle.

The app is called "Fabularium" and you should be able to find it in the Google play store by searching for "fabularium interactive fiction".

I believe this app is capable of handling pretty much anything you might throw at Gargoyle, along with some extra features (e. g. support for most of TADS HTML / multimedia).

The app also allows users to create IF on their Android device, via the bundled Inform or TADS 3 compilers, although that feature is not yet as polished.

I'd welcome (constructive) feedback from any Android users who have the time and inclination to comment. Depending on how much feedback / uptake the app gets in future versions I'll polish any rough edges and look at some additional features to make it more user-friendly.

Cheers

Tim

I LOVE this app! You did a fantastic job. My older boys and I use it almost everyday. Please keep up the great work.

I will have to look into this a bit further. I downloaded it, but right now I am at work and the adding of game files is not turning out to be as easy as I would expect.
