A textfire game about being inanimate, June 5, 2017
by MathBrush

The Textfire Demo 12-pack was released on April Fool's in 1998, claiming to be demos of an upcoming commercial studio called Textfire.

This is one of the weaker textfire games. There is a machine that turns you into an inanimate object (including one inappropriate one, an option that I never ran into).

In this 'demo', you only get to be grain. You can't do anything. This was done much better by the game Constraints.

Experience the joys and terrors of being an inanimate object! This brief Textfire pseudo-demo really pushes the limits of what we can call "interactive".
