I'd be interested in one of those myself. there are several such kits. addrift aparently is good but I have not bothered with that much. glulx inform7 is a good language some of the stuff is real snazy. Hugo, is the other I have tried all quite good. as for toolkits there is not a real toolkit. there is audio game maker which is crap and not in development. there is the adventure engine by enspired code which I have no info on, it was in beta but don't know if its out or not. you would have to buy it but there is a wizzard and a language doc for it I know that for sure.
