Hi,
No - its a program that runs on a PC. You could actually write the source code for any program on a BN, but without compilation or special programs, you cannot run them. The exception would be website code - even then, KeyWeb's Javascript engine is not powerful enough, as we have a number of proofs. BTW, programming is like writing an essay: you have a thought as to what your computer (your audience) need to do, write some outline (expected input, output and procedures), write it, transform it and revise it (this includes website development). As for the original discussion of this thread, it turns out its a program that requires usage of some advanced features of some programming languages to implement (after talking to Jesse over KeyChat), which I cannot explain in simple terms (to give a hint, we need a container object and a function to retrieve its index).
Cheers,
Joseph

No, you need a pc.  Google "inform compiler" and you should find
it.
The program is basically accessible. Just make sure you select z5
or
z8 as the output format or the bn will not be able to run the
game.

Hi.
Is it possible to create zcode games on the bn?
If so, how is it done?
I have to create a computer game or an interactive fiction game
that has something to do with the digestive system for science.
If anyone has some knologe of how to do it, please reply and let
me know.
Thanks.
