Worlds terminal game


This is a CLI (command-line interface) app that runs ***Worlds***, a text-based world simulation and role-playing game toolkit. With *Worlds*, you can create a virtual world and play a character in it.

> [!NOTE]

> *Worlds* is in very early development and not yet playable—it's just an empty shell *(pun intended)*.

This CLI app works on MacOS and Linux. Later on I plan on making it playable via a web interface as well.

You can follow the development of *Worlds* in the blog series "Building a text-based game in Ruby":

- ["Part 0: convincing myself it's not a dumb idea"](https://fpsvogel.com/posts/2023/why-make-a-text-based-game)

- ["Part 1: simultaneous, real-time input and output"](https://fpsvogel.com/posts/2023/ruby-text-based-game-real-time-input)
