Does anyone know of any good software for creating your own text adventure games on linux?

I would recommend the language Inform (http://www.inform-fiction.org/). It's pretty easy to work with. You can find it in the repositories as the package inform. After compiling a project with the Inform compiler, you can play it with an interpreter like Frotz.
Try this command to install both Inform and Frotz:
sudo apt-get install inform frotz

the easiest one to use would probably be Inform 7 (http://inform7.com/). it's syntax takes form of pseudo-natural english language, and there's a comfortable IDE available from the homepage. aside from that, your choices are many. browse here (http://ifmirror.russotto.net/indexes/if-archiveXprogramming.html) or here (http://ifwiki.org/index.php/Category:Authoring_system).
