• 0.16.0 multiprocess parallelism
  October 11, 2024 by clayote#release

• Time travel
  April 01, 2024 by clayote

  1

  #programming, #Python, #time travel

  Time travel was the very first feature I ever wanted LiSE to have. I took one look at Inform 7's Skein view and knew I needed it; why hadn't anyone done that for other types of game? The very earliest... Continue reading

• Designers Wanted
  April 21, 2021 by clayote
