Godot & Ink: a tutorial series
This series of videos is a step-by-step tutorial showing how to create a visual-novel-like games using Godot and Ink. This project uses the inkgd plug-in developed by Frédéric Maquin: https://github.com/ephread/inkgd Visual assets are made by puppetbomb: https://puppetbomb.itch.io/college-students-sprite-pack

Is there a way to make a good game without coding?
There are other tools like that, if you're interested. Inkle (maker of 80 Days and Overboard) make another text based language called Ink, and there's an online hosting tool for making stories with it. Godot can even integrate with Ink-written stories, but it requires a bit of programming knowledge to get it to hang together

What should I learn if I want to develop a barebone political sim?
I would say something like Inkle's Ink could do this easily, though it can be overwhelming to look at from the start. There are a couple of Godot integrations with Ink, both a C# one here and a pure GDScript one (though they warn it might be slow on large games). InkGD has a couple examples that use simpler Ink stories, so you might just look through that for the examples to start.

Just released my second game on Steam, The Great Plague Exodus. Between achievements and managing multiple characters, I've learnt so much in the past 6 months since my first game released, a massive thank you to this community.
Hey, looks great! I wonder what did you use for dialogue system. Do you have any recommendations? There are many repositories for this for Godot (some just UI, some using graphs, but most are abandoned), but it's hard for me to decide. All I know is I don't want to build yet another system from scratch, just plug it into my UI. From what I have researched Ink with Inkgd (https://github.com/ephread/inkgd) seems the most maintained and robust solution. Any opinions on that?

Ask HN: Modern Day Equivalent to HyperCard?
I think you and your kid would have fun designing a Choose Your Own Adventure game in Twine. https://twinery.org/
FWIW, there are a bunch of simple modern GUI builders, including GUI builders for the web, but none of them are popular, due to the sweet spot of supply and demand that Hypercard hit.
When Hypercard launched, it came with every Mac, it was free, and there was nothing else like it available on the Mac. On the Mac, the alternative to Hypercard was to layout UI widgets in code, with no GUI builder at all, or eventually to pay $$$ for a professional-grade IDE like CodeWarrior. As an entry-level user with no budget, if you wanted a GUI builder for the Mac, you got Hypercard, or nothing. This created a community of Hypercard enthusiasts.
Furthermore, when Hypercard launched, Macs had a standard screen resolution. Every Mac sold had a screen resolution of 512x342 pixels, so you could know for sure how your cards would look on any Mac. Supporting resizable GUIs is one of the hardest things to do in any GUI builder. (How should the buttons layout when the screen gets very small, like a phone? Or very wide, like a 16:9 monitor?) Today, Xcode uses a sophisticated constraint solver / theorem prover to allow developers to build resizable UIs in a GUI; it works pretty well, I think, but it's never going to be as easy to learn as "drag the button onto the screen and it's going to look exactly like that everywhere."
The last issue is the real killer for modern Hypercard wannabes: it's a small step from a web GUI builder to raw HTML/CSS. You don't have to pay big bucks to have access to professional-grade HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Sure, they're not that easy to learn, but you can teach a kid to write interactive web pages, no problem.
As a result, the demand for a simple GUI builder is lower than it was for Hypercard, and even when you do capture a user, they tend to outgrow your product, and there are a zillion competitors, so none of them can build a community with real traction.

You use something like https://twinery.org/ for creating the dialogues, and then write abstract code to handle that.
