Text Adventure?

You can use "twine" (twinery.org) for nonlinear text games, but without text input (only case query). I think you must learn some "Harlowe" programming to add text input, but I haven't tested it yet.

Well i guess the simplest way to get basic input would be something like this, you need to create a value to store the data in there.

function keyboardHandler(eventType, character, keycode, modifiers)
    if eventType==eEvtKeyTextInput then
        Values["name"].String = Values["name"].String .. character
    elseif eventType == eEvtKeyDown and keycode == 8 then
        Values["name"].String = string.sub(Values["name"].String, 1, -2)
    end
    startAction("Scenes[scene].SceneActions[refresh]")
    return false
end
 
registerEventHandler("keyEvent", "keyboardHandler")

When refresh action only display the object text which includes

<vs=valueName>

This script works great. I experienced a funny behaviour when the string contains umlauts like ä ö ü and stuff.
When pressing backspace and this should erase only the umlaut, the complete string gets removed...

Example:
Type "lkada sdaü asdkjh".
Press Backspace.
Continue pressing backspace.
When reaching the ü all characters before also get removed.
