Ink for Game Design
At first glance, Ink looks like it's just a narrative design tool, something you would use to build multi-linear stories like the ones found in Choose-Your-Own-Adventure books. But because of its advanced scripting features, Ink can be used for game design as well! With support for functions, variables, sets, loops and more, it's possible to simulate various games purely in Ink.

Inventory system
That said, you can export to HTML using Inky, and the files it generates can be used to build more advanced systems in HTML (which is great at displaying text and images) and Javascript. This is not something I'd recommend for beginners, but here's a quick rundown of the process:

PSA - ESET exception needed
I'm a complete github n00b, so not entirely sure if I've downloaded / installed the right files even. I pulled the download from here.

Ink for Game Design
Ever since I encountered Overlap2D many years ago, I've had thoughts of engine-agnostic game development spinning in the back of my head. Overlap2D was a 2D level editor that exported game data that could be loaded into game frameworks like libGDX, HaxeFlixel, phaser.js and more. What's alluring about this is the idea that your game data is not tied to a specific game engine. In theory, this flexibility can allow you to develop your game sooner and worry about deployment later. If the need to switch game engines arises, perhaps due to licensing changes or platform support, you're safer with engine-agnostic game development strategies.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing inky and overlap2d you can also consider the following projects:
