I published a new compiler and programming language for the Infocom Z-machine that is heavily optimised to run on retro computers. The name is Arcturus. It is a modern language that can be considered syntactic sugar, little code will get you far. And also Hibernated 2 is done now. Stay tuned for more! https://github.com/ByteProject/Arcturus

@8bitgames@oldbytes.space Compared to other authoring systems, this looks really nice readable and convenient. I like it. Maybe need to put my hands on it when I have a bit of time left ;)
