#realnonsense

The hall light flicker and flash keeps my attention I wander. No focus. Wrapped inside my sleeping bag Fidgety. Carelessly tired. Slow. Sure of the impossibility of resolve (in any regard). I drift. I sleep. I try. I try and sleep. She pulls me in again. Determined damsel. I have no time for this. No REAL time. Memory, take me ANYwhere. Somewhere. I drift. I try. I try and remember the phrasing. It wrecklessly breaks in. "Plum is the color of a mind in charge Rose is the color of a bet at large Man is poised for a color unseen Should he choose it for me? For me?" -Hallard Skole I'll find my way there. Slow, but there. Alexa. Damn our advancement. Regress into mindless. A light that leads to a cave. Screen this. Screen this. Screen this.

"...I was absolutely....am I to do?..... ...was terrible.  I mean why would any....great?"

Mindless.

"Huh? What'd you say?"

Mindless.

HAROLD NIGHT 2003, the interactive fiction of the UCB Theatre, is now available for the iPhone and iPad for FREE on the iTunes store.

(I EXPECT THERE ARE BUGS. Shouldn’t be many, and there should really not be any that actually stop the game. Please let me know if you find any.)

This is pretty much the same game which I wrote a few years ago, which is a text-only simulation of walking around the UCB Theatre in 2003, getting improv lessons from teachers, and then doing a scene. It’s hard to play! Requires lots of typing and abstract thought! Mention dozens of people you’ve never heard of! 

changes for this release:

more descriptions 

a tutorial mode

a few more hints

Christina Gausas is one of the teachers, and John Flynn is the bartender (he wasn’t in 2003, but screw it)

Anyway, for a very small percentage of you, this game will be a good time.

It works like this: the game describes a location. You can examine items in the room, or pick things up or give them to people or move to a new room. 

That’s probably confusing. Um, Imagine if the main character in Ready Player One had to do an old-school text game? 

Oh, it’s easier if you just try it.
