Hello everyone!
I’m building a new open-source platform for creating and playing choose-your-own-adventure games. It’s entirely free forever, and doesn’t include ads. It started as a group school project, but this is something I’d like to keep working on!
https://story-builder-topaz.vercel.app/
The project is local-first, which means that everything is stored locally by default, rather than on a remote server. This means your data always stays with you (in your browser) if you want to.
It doesn’t and will not include any AI features, and I don’t use AI in the development process.
Story Builder allows you to create interactive stories via a visual node editor (no coding required!). It is currently in bêta, but the platform is stable and already offers all the basic features you’d expect from a choice-based game editor, and some additional features I hope you’ll find interesting! To list a few:
-
Conditional actions - Enable/Disable paths of the story based on previous choices
-
Wiki - Write articles about the lore of your stories and link them directly in your story
-
Character Attributes - Implement level-up mechanisms and condition choices based on attributes value
-
Random events - Improve replayibility by adding randomness to the story
-
…and more to come!
I’d love to have your feedback on the project!
