Creating Interactive Fiction

Interactive Fiction (IF) is a better, computerized version of a “Choose Your Own Adventure” story. The best way to understand what it is, is to play one, like this game: http://is.gd/ifexample

While we have written many different IF programs, they all do only one thing…create IF games, and you can’t do much else with them.

That said, if you like telling stories and creative writing, then you may have a great time making these stories with multiple endings and plot branches.
