An interactive fiction engine written in Python. I am currently in the process of implementing this, and I will be documenting selected aspects of the program's creation on my tech blog at https://rt38.net/tag/nuventure.

To run, you need NLTK: pip install nltk. Once installed, you need to install a corpus as described on the NLTK site:

zsh$ python
>>> import nltk
>>> nltk.download()

Given how small the input language for Nuventure is, it should suffice to install any (English-language) corpus; I wrote and tested with the popular package.
