Got it working. That's pretty neat. I might have to give Twine a go.

I got it working.

That was pretty cool, sort of like a choose your own adventure. It felt a little short but it was a nicely written little piece.

My thanks for bringing the "Twine" program to our attention. I downloaded it today. The learning curve is not steep and I have already built a simple sinking pit something like what used to be found on sinking island. What I have built so far is very basic but I only downloaded the system two hours ago. Others may want to try it.

Twine is really as simple or as complex as you're willing to make it. This, my first brush with it, is little more than a choose-your-own adventure. If you understand structured program languages, and can parse the syntax, Twine is capable of some pretty complex behavior! The syntax isn't so well documented as I would like, so I'm (personally) still trying to intuit how to make certain things work, but I do encourage any and all to explore!

That was awesome. Am I right in thinking that every path leads to a grim demise?

I thought it was perhaps a shame that the only one where she starts playing with herself is the one where you start begging. (Did make sense though. ;)

You do have two chances to save yourself early in the story.

Ah yes. But once you are in the quicksand, that's it, your fate is sealed. ;)
