 Semi-related to the subject at hand: have been messing around with Twine 2.0 for a month or so, not sure if Twine is the route most of these authors have taken but I was wondering if there were better alternatives? The documentation, wiki, and bug reports for Twine are insanely unkempt. As a program with technical documentation, it's just awful trying to figure out how and why a thing is broken or if it will ever get fixed.

the alternatives would prob be:

inform 7

tads

with inform 7 being what is most used and has a cool help system built in that serves as a manual with examples you can plug right into your game and mess around with

these look great, much obliged!
