Comic Book Dollhouse is an experimental toy for making and playing interactive comic books.

If you're new, I'd suggest launching the program and opening "A Tale of Two Robots," a storyworld filled with danger, romance, and adventure. Mac OSX users should run "cbd X", and other Mac users should run "cbd."
Inspired by The Sims.

What's New:
First Windows version. CBD now runs on MacOS9, OSX, and Windows.
Verbs can have indirect objects.
First incarnation of plot recognition and generation. The interface sucks, and execution time is O(2^n), so writing morphemes is hard and they might run real slowly if the story is long.
The layout editor dynamically resizes the canvas.
Verb pop up menu is layed out more intelligently.
Story layout view is bigger; got rid of that useless white space.
Stickers can be resized.
Question mark scratch space added.
Fixed a bug with updating the verb list in the object editor when a method was removed.
Fixed an assert failure when copying and pasting verbs between actors and props.
Tiny bug where you couldn't drag a preview object from one verb socket to another fixed.
