Made a gamebook authoring app
Hi! New here, but I've always loved the old Choose Your Own Adventure books. When I found out there were actual game mechanics in gamebooks like the Lone Wolf series (seriously what is up with book 2 and RNGeesus taking the wheel?) I was instantly hooked. While trying to write some adventures of my own I immediately became frustrated with the way all the tools out there are "almost but not quite." Being a stubborn soul, I spent the last two months building an app specifically for authoring game books.

Planning to release on itch.io soon^(TM)
This is not an AI text/story generation tool. It's a writing tool made for human writers to write their interactive adventures.
