☆ Puka ♡ :blobcat_devil:<p>Afortunadamente no perdí los pedazos de papel abollado llenos de mamarrachos ilegibles en donde tengo el mapa del Castillo de Arena, no. La verdad es que creo que este proyecto de <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/Twine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Twine</span></a> lo estoy haciendo más porque lo necesito yo que para publicar algo jaja, este formato me parece más práctico para hacer el mapa que necesito. Y de paso le metí un chat entre mis personajes en medio porque es gratis. Si a alguien más le divierte está buenísimo, yo la estoy pasando bien haciéndolo jajajaja.</p>

Mark Bessey<p>I&#39;ve been playing around with writing a story with <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/twine" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>twine</span></a>, and I don&#39;t love it. The web authoring tool is pretty neat, but the disconnect between what you can easily do there, what the various &quot;story formats&quot; support, and what I want to do is getting a bit annoying. It&#39;s just *enough* like programming to be annoying, and then not quite enough like it to really feel worth the effort.</p><p>I think where I&#39;m coming to is that the Chapbook story format is definitely NOT for me, and I should be trying some of the other formats. For example, in Chapbook there are no nested modifiers, which - I totally get it, as a beginner format, but no - I am not going to build everything out of single-paragraph [if] statements.</p><p>I think I will finish this one project, then head back to give Harlowe another shot.</p>

Mark Bessey<p>I have never really liked <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/wordpress" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>wordpress</span></a>. I used it for my blog, because I thought it would be useful to know at least a bit about it in order to help my wife with her site, which I&#39;m a part-time helper with. It turns out that I&#39;m not really learning very much.</p><p>After spending a few weeks messing around with <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Twine" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Twine</span></a>, I&#39;m remembering how nice it is to just use Markdown and some basic wiki-linking for this sort of thing. I&#39;m seriously-considering ditching WP for some static site generator.</p>
Mark Bessey<p>I&#39;ve been giving <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/twine" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>twine</span></a> another look, and if anything, it&#39;s gotten more confusing since the last time. For something that&#39;s supposed to be a simple introduction to interactive fiction, there sure is a lot of &quot;the first thing you need to do is choose a story format, which determines which of several completely incompatible syntaxes you&#39;ll use&quot; in people&#39;s intro articles/videos. I know at some level it doesn&#39;t really mattter for getting started, but it&#39;s off-putting.</p>
