I realized what i said might be confuzzling so here a restate.
Just like how you can make it so when you open a passage a variable might be set to true, but what if when you open a passage the style of your story could change.
I get it. I think this is a great idea. Essentially an event that triggers a scene change of sorts.
It could be some kind of "apply this style sheet" feature.
I think it would be cool if you have the option to change the style of your story mid way through.
It'd also be cool if you could change the design of the start screen.
Problem solved.
The latest version of StoryMate resolves an issue with exporting HTML5 games and importing them into Itch.
Hey there. Can you send me a remix link to your story so I can investigate.
Great idea Gamefroot Dan! The ability to click the connection and be able to delete it.
It's coming! By this time next week, you shall have it :)
By the way - this feature exists now.
No I'm not an ausie I live in Dunedin.
(Btw I'm 9)
How about the ability to click on a connection wire between passages to select it and then being able to hit delete. That would remove the connection.
Got some feedback for the gaggle that made this game/software:
Thanks for the feedback redcapybara! Ausie?
OMG! this is such a good game/software. I did the same thing as rekklested just to comment here.
just made an account just to add a comment here. Damn, This is fun! Thank you
Cheers! Really appreciate it - If you're not having fun we're not doing it right.
What do you find most fun about it?
I had a play- and it was awesome. I ended up creating a story- but having the AI as an option is a really nice touch. It takes me back to the Choose your own Adventure book I loved as a kid!
Thanks Craig!
