Twine
A tool for creating interactive fiction and games
Twine is an open-source tool for creating interactive fiction and games. It allows users to create stories that are non-linear and interactive, often referred to as "choose your own adventure" stories. Twine is popular among writers and game developers for its simplicity and flexibility.
History[edit | edit source]
Twine was created by Chris Klimas in 2009. It was initially developed as a tool to help writers create interactive stories without needing to know how to code. Over the years, Twine has evolved, with new versions adding more features and capabilities. The software is available for free and can be used on multiple platforms, including Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Features[edit | edit source]
Twine allows users to create stories using a visual interface. The stories are composed of passages, which are connected by links. Users can add text, images, and other media to their stories, and can also use variables and conditional logic to create more complex narratives. Twine supports HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, allowing for extensive customization.
Usage[edit | edit source]
Twine is used by a wide range of creators, from hobbyists to professional game developers. It is particularly popular in the independent video game development community due to its ease of use and the ability to create complex, branching narratives. Twine has been used to create award-winning games and interactive stories.
Community[edit | edit source]
The Twine community is active and supportive, with many resources available for new users. There are forums, tutorials, and examples available online, as well as a large library of user-created stories and games. The community also contributes to the development of Twine by creating extensions and plugins that add new features.
