So the folks behind Fallen London, a text based game full of hijinks and waiting-ten-minutes-for-your-energy-to-recharge have released StoryNexus.

http://www.storynexus.com/s

It's a tool set to create text based browser games. When hearing the news, I immediately flashed back to the gamebook wiki--that I'm PRETTY SURE was a real thing and not in my imagination--that was (maybe) on the Black Iron Prison. But I can't seem to find it, so balls.

So there once was an interactive fiction story around here, and now there's a tool to make interactive fiction.

I'm going to check it out in the next few days, but I figured some folks here might be interested.


If you haven't played Fallen London, check it out. It's got a very interesting game mechanic to it, and allows for ludicrously dynamic branching stories.

Cheers.

Well woo! Admittedly, the punchline comes out of nowhere with absolutely no pretense, s

Wait a minute. Have you really made 441728 posts that's insan

Wait what I've made 31.

Wait.

Nevermind.

Lying awake in the middle of the day, in a gray sweater. And unsure whether or not this shirt that fits me is HOT, or if it's just a bomb as dead as a rock.
But at these rock bottom prices, the vice is too good to pass by. But if I decide to buy, what will I do if people start to intrude on my right to wear the stupid shit that I wear? And if they don't even care? Then where will I be, lying here at the feet of this slightly impatient clothing store employee?

‎"Mister," she'll say, "if you're not gonna pay, then won't you just go away? You've been here all day, and I have to stay to set up this display, and you're in the way... wait, why are you on the floor in the first place?"

It helps me think, I think. My shrink told me to try it, and though I don't really buy it--the psycho mumbo jumbo (and especially the diet)-- I'm not one to knock those smarter than me. Nor mock those different than me, which coincidentally, is why I'm here. You see lady, I'm queer, and I have this fear of falling out with my father if he ever discovered I don't like to bother with beaus of the other sex.

So rather than vex myself with complex creations of situations that'll never come to pass without him beating my ass, I thought I'd give your store a chance. You see, I want to replace all my "straight" clothes with things a bit more "haaa-aay!". Something to discretely repeat to him, "Daddy, I'm gay!" until it sticks in his brain. And looking around, I found this shirt right here. And so I settled down on the ground, as per my prescription of "sittin' and thinkin".

I guess I got caught up in what others would wonder if I wore this else where from when I'm with my father. So Miss, would you mind advising me? Please?

I'll admit that I'm new to this "S&M" business.

"My wife and I stayed here over the Columbus day weekend a few years back. The bellhop that helped us with our luggage was friendly but that changed quickly when I did not give him a tip. The first night there my wife began to get a rash on her backside that grew larger and persisted through the weekend. It was disgusting and a significant hamper on our vacation. After we left and returned home, I had to take the wife to the doctor to get some kind of topical cream for the rash.

On the sidewalk between the doctor's office and our SUV I found a $10 bill on the ground and treated the wife to ice cream in town.

The ice cream was delicious.

Without the Kafka hotel, I don't think in fact I'm sure we wouldn't have had such delicious ice cream."
