  3. Working on an idea I had to describe a game in a format that could be parsed and rendered
  4. by a game engine/framework. I played with a few syntaxes and found an HTML/XML style looked good.
  5.  
  6. It's still missing parts, like a way to describe the rules of the game.
  7. It's not consistent. Still not sure how to handle elements with multiple parameters.
  8.  
  9. But I like the overall look and feel so far.
  10. If you have any ideas or suggestions, let me know.
