  Animating a text adventure game (Zork)

  Posted by James Houston on November 2, 2009 at 9:29 am

  Hello,
  I need to animate a fake text-adventure game that is quite long, so was trying to find a way of using text animation presets to help things, as keyframing is out of the question.

  Basically, it should look as though someone is playing a similar game to this:
  https://www.xs4all.nl/~pot/infocom/zork1.html (type “open mailbox” then “read leaflet”)

  So, after each typed line, everything jumps one line space up (sometimes with additional text inserted “There is a leaflet in the mailbox”

  Does anyone have an idea of how I could reproduce this type of effect? Any help is appreciated.

  Thanks,
  James
