Hello, I am creating a text adventure, I am fairly new to this game genre.
I have been pleasantly surprised at the number of people interested & involved in this genre 🙂
As an author are there any restrictions on the platform , Os, coding language for publication & upload here?
I would prefer to write all the code myself.
Many thanks!

Mostly this is Quest... But look at the main game page, and you will see other code languages...

Uploaded games have to be Quest, Z-machine, or HTML. I think most players are looking for something they can play online anyway.

I saw Coming Out Simulator hosted on this website once. No idea what it was coded in.

Edit: I found it on Github!
https://github.com/ncase/coming-out-simulator-2014

body{
	background: #000;
	overflow: hidden;
	margin: 0;

	-webkit-user-select: none;
	-moz-user-select: none;
	-ms-user-select: none;
	-o-user-select: none;
	user-select: none;      

}

/** GAME **/
#game_container{
	background: #000;
	width:360px;
	height:640px;

	position: absolute;
	margin:auto;
	top:0; bottom:0; left:0; right:0;
}
