Hello:

In producing software (not intended by Kobo) to run on the Kobo (mine is Touch but I see no reason why it couldn't be written to run on any Kobo e-reader) has anyone thought about adventure games (Giant Cave, Zork - there must be a hundred)? I don't know exactly what's involved - I see there is a cross compiler, but I don't know what language the source code needs to be in - but it seems to me to be a natural.

Any interest?
