@yarnspinner gonna need to get the #YarnSpinner hashtag going on Masto 🧶

Learning #YarnSpinner: #ChatGPT turns out to be a good companion when I'm stuck with simple things
Guess this will be Clippy's upcoming revival:

Been working on getting our dialogue system working again after migrating to #godot - this is using our WIP port of the open source dialogue tool #YarnSpinner from Unity to godot.

This attack was really fun to make. Using #yarnspinner for combat animations has made building stuff like this pretty easy.

In a turn-based #RPG, all attacks can basically be tiny little cutscenes.

Finally got our voiceover system with #YarnSpinner and #fmod in place! :ms_grin: I can sleep happy.

Week 2 - #YarnSpinner dialogue system is implemented. Excruciating! But worth it! 🎉

Week 1 progress on a dialogue system using #YarnSpinner 1.2.7 in #unity3d 🎉

People, if you make a game with any appreciable amount of text in it, please use #ink, or #yarnspinner, or #articy:draft, if flowcharts are your thing. Don't hand-roll stuff unless you have *really* specific requirements, and only after you've researched the available options.

the easiest way would be to use GalaxyKate's #Tracery tool. Then you could combine that with a branching narrative tool like #Yarnspinner.

Stories can also emerge from systems and some good references for that are Crusader Kings, Blaseball, Dwarf Fortress, and Shadow of Mordor.

Neural networks are another solution ie, "AI Dungeon" but they produce completely unpredictable behavior.

This article is also informative:

thinking about writing a Telltale-style adventure game for #nanowrimo. I'm a bit worried that it's going to absolutely tank my word count per day. I could focus on writing just one path while taking notes in the margins about ways things could diverge and how variables would be adjusted. Although that would require a lot of cleanups to bring into something like #yarnspinner later. Wondering what other people who write #interactivefiction or #visualnovel workflows look like.

It’s an exciting week this week! I got to….
