Object

"Everything is an object. Objects have slots. Slots hold data OR behavior." — Dave Ungar, Self: The Power of Simplicity

What Is It?

An Object is anything you can interact with in the adventure world. Keys, lamps, chests, furniture, food, tools — all objects.

Objects are the atoms of the adventure. They:

• Have an identity (id, name, description)
• Advertise their actions (The Sims style)
• Contain state (lit, fuel, uses)
• Inherit from prototypes (Self style)
