Alright, so, really cool idea, love the idea. *Pause for LUA hating* Lua sucks by the way, and anything more than a simple "Hello world" app shouldn't be written in it 
*Continue with praise for the idea* It's a really good programming exercise. I'm all the time finding fun things to do with programming, and text adventure games would be a fun way to go, though I would have problems staying with it as they can get really tedious. Way more fun to play the final product than to code them. I wish GUI programming was easier, so far I haven't really found any language which makes an actual gaming environment programming even close to easy and fun. The closest I've found is Pygame, which is actually pretty fun, but Python is of course only meant as a scripting language and thus makes me feel limited. *Pause to prove C++ is the absolute best language ever* In C++ you can literally program in ASSEMBLY, it's called inline assembly, it's friggen AWESOME. C++ allows high level programming which is super easy and efficient, then next line you can be programming in practically MACHINE CODE. C++ RULES!! ;P *End of post, because there is nothing better to end with than the epicness of C++*
