  • Gordian Book — Make PDF gamebooks from Twine
    2 projects | /r/interactivefiction | 9 May 2021
    I made two different tools for PDF downloads (my old gamebookformat and my newer, barely released yet, pangamebook. Your approach is different though... My idea was always to start from a format that is static and can not have any weird dynamic things that is not possible to include in a book. But Twine is full of precisely those weird things? How do you deal with that, like if there is conditional text in a paragraph, or inlined JavaScript? For my gamebookformat I experimented with Twine-export instead, because turning a static gamebook into Twince-code is kind of doable, and there is nothing that should not be possible to convert in that direction, but converting from Twine seemed much more difficult?

    You can see more format examples here, but I think most of it are things you might want to be careful to avoid: https://github.com/lifelike/gamebookformat/tree/master/examples (and here are what some of the possible generated files from the examples look like, used for automated tests: https://github.com/lifelike/gamebookformat/tree/master/expected).
