The grammar is made from excitement!

So here's where I'll be putting my IF games, they'll be in their own stand-alone executables, so all you need to play is right here.

The controls are fairly basic and mostly obvious, but some people need all the help they can get, so here's a rundown:

-If you want to move, just type the direction you want to go (north, south, east, west, northeast, northwest, southeast, southwest, up, down, in and out. You can also use n, s, e, w, ne, nw, se, and sw for direction if you'd like).
-To inspect something you can type either Look at or Examine then the name of what you want to inspect. Typing look by itself will let you see the current room description again. (Note: If an object is transparent, you'll want to use look through or if you want to search an object you can use look behind, look under, or look inside/search if you want to search inside a container object.) There is a difference between search objects and simply looking at them, this is important.
-If you want to read something, simply looking at it won't work, you must use the read command.
-To pick something up, you can type either take or pick up then the object name.
-To place on or in something, type put or place then the object name and where you would like to place it. (For example, put note on bed) If you just want to put the item on the ground, type drop then the item.
-To wear a clothing item, type put on or wear then the clothing item name. If you want to take it off type take off then the clothing item name. (For example, put on gunbelt, take off gunbelt)
-To open or close an object, type open or close then the object name.
-To unlock an object, as long as you have the appropriate item, type unlock then the object, this is different from open or close.
-If you want to eat something, type eat then the food item.
-Type inventory at any time to see what you're carrying.

That should be everything, I'm sure if I've forgotten something you can figure it out yourself.
