#3Congrats on 1.0!
I recently started developing a game in my spare time, and discovered Ink, which has tremendously simplified development of conversations and managing conversational state.
I've found Ink to be quite flexible, If someone wanted to, they could manage their entire game state with Ink.
Live recompilation of my ink script in Unity will be very helpful!

It seems to work kind of okay in Firefox mobile. you've gotta click on the colored snow.

Clicking on "snow" does nothing in Chrome either. Clicking on "home" does lead you to "end". I can't tell if that's what is supposed to happen.
Edit: Ah, okay. One of the "snow." boxes has a bg color of #fee instead of #aaa.

Chrome desktop, I don't see any colored snow. Here's a screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/MovaQ1t
Clicking on the little boxes with the word "snow." does nothing.

#9Can anyone compare Ink to Inform? I played with Inform many many years ago and have always wanted to return to it.

I haven't played with either of them much, but they seem to take two fundamentally different narrative approaches.
Inform is primarily simulation driven: You describe a world model. Every user input translates into some action that affects the world, and the world changing produces relevant output.
Ink is primarily narrative driven: You write the text as a branching story, with a set of explicit options for each branching point. Variables can be read and changed arbitrarily, but have no meaning other than how the narrative uses them.
