About st-term

A fantasy terminal — write terminal games in Forth, play them over SSH.

st-term is a browser-based authoring studio for terminal games. Write your game in Forth, compile it to portable .term bytecode, and run it on an 80×24 character-grid canvas. A future phase adds SSH play so players can connect from their real terminal. Part of the Serbek Technologies fantasy interpreter family alongside spriteCart.

Features

• Forth studio with syntax highlighting, compile, run, and save
• 80×24 character-grid canvas runtime in the browser
• Full terminal HCALL table (cursor, color, print, key input, screen clear)
• Portable .term bytecode format — same VM family as spriteCart
• SSH multiplayer play coming in a later phase
