Apr 25th, 2010 by Ice Cream Jonsey

I had known about the beautiful program called Parchment for a few weeks now, but been unable to do anything about it.

I don’t even know what verbs I should be using here, because I did nothing but type in a link to get this going. “I arranged things so you can play two of my games using Parchment”? No. “I uploaded two of my games and … typed some stuff an-” – No!

“I did the barest minimum and now you can play two of my games over the Internet in a delightful font.” That’ll work.

Chicks Dig Jerks, using the Zcode web terp Parchment.
Revenger, using the same.

Many thanks to the Parchment team! I’m extremely delighted and extremely impressed.
