Devlog: STIM (Simple Tiny Interactive fiction Maker)

#devlog #interactivefiction #javascript #gamedev

I was thinking about minimalist app making – where you just put together the most basic version of an app, and it struck me how I often try to over complicate things ( for example the HTML version of IttyBittyRPG ) so I set a goal for myself to create just a super minimalist Interactive Fiction tool I'm calling STIM. I'm using Repl.it to code it, Cash and Torus for the JS, and Bulma for the CSS ( and Font Awesome – which is ... Awesome!)
