    There are still people making new works of interactive fiction, including in the parser-based style of Adventure or Zork. You can find a lot of the more recent games on IFDB[0] and general info about IF and the community on IFWiki[1]. Most modern parser games are built for VMs with interpreters available for many operating systems and types of devices, with Lectrote[2] being a common recommendation for desktop platforms.

    There are some recurring patterns I see in other peoples' code, though. I just cloned https://github.com/MoreOutput/RockMUD and found lots of abbreviated names as variables, functions and parameters. Such as: e, r, fn, evt, s and so on.. As I have seen these before, I just figured they are very common BUT I can't find anyone on the god damn web who cares to elaborate on what they are.

    Let me shamelessly plug a project I'll probably always be poking at: https://github.com/MoreOutput/RockMUD

    I mainly played DIKU stuff so it feels a bit like that OOTB, but its very flexible (i hope).
