Twine

These stories are like "Choose Your Own Adventure" books, but in a digital format. I write them in a program called Twine (v2.2.1), using the Sugarcube format (v2.21).

Are these programs made in Twine stories, or are they games? The answer is simply 'yes'. But a spectrum does exist - some Twine programs, with complex inventory and combat systems and gameplay loops, are quite clearly games; others (like mine for the most part) are curated paths that's essentially a series of prose broken into passages - I think it's fairer to call these "interactive stories" instead. Think the difference between Minecraft and Telltale's Walking Dead.

• Farmer Blues - SFW. My take on the classic fox-hen-corn riddle. I did it as a way to practice with Twine, but writing out the flavor text turned out to be a lot of fun as well!
• Shipwrecked in Kaibur [PREVIEW] - an adult story about a young princess shipwrecked in wild country with nothing but her wits and a tattered shift. Excerpt is SFW, but it won't stay that way - the story is all about the protagonist trying to get home while avoiding rape, capture and a merciless thunderstorm.
