The Pity of Thieves

This is a technical demonstration of Balladeer. I first wrote it for the Icehouse game jam in 2021. Balladeer is a Python library. It helps you build parser-based Interactive Fiction for the Web. The game is Free Software, which you can download and run yourself. There is a live server online at http://109.74.199.86/ if you just want to see how it plays.
