Hi Nanna,

I love it!

Does this use any variables, etc, behind the scenes, or it a series of links?

I was wondering if it would work as an actual e-book format that people could download/buy to read on a device, clicking links to make decisions in the same way... ?

Tried a few other tools before, but I like the idea of really having a book to keep and 'play'.

@kevinbeynon Hi, Kevin! Thanks!
I've used the tool Twine.
I can say as much as it uses javascript so it's not so easy to turn it into an ebook.
But it is possible, since I don't use variables, they really are "just links" connecting different pages.

I like the idea of having it as an ebook too, I'm just nok quite sure how to do that.
I've attached a screenshot of the layout of the story.

Ah-ha! Thanks Nanna.

Sigil might work for that. It's great for making and editing ePub books and is free:

sigil-ebook.com/

I wonder if it would behave the same way if you made each entry a 'chapter' and used the internal linking feature for the choices...

Can't wait for the next entry. Really liked it.

@nuhn It’s good! I would like more.
