• good program for creating a puzzle based text adventure without any real programming?

  Surprised no one has mentioned Quest, it's complicated to figure out but it should be able to do everything you're asking, based on what I've seen other people do with it. Source: about 1 year ago

• Shin Megami Tensei-style Dottore boss fight - made in RPG Maker MV

  It was just a text adventure in my case, but it had sounds and images playing when different choices were picked. It was about a hunt for a werewolf in the forests, just used as a test but I still recall it. It was a bit of a time ago, using it to learn pc and trying to make games out of fun, but I greatly recommend the program I used https://textadventures.co.uk/quest it is called Quest.

• Program for non-coders to write IF?

  Another option is called Quest (https://textadventures.co.uk/quest) which is a tool that allows you to create text-based games using a simple visual editor. Quest games are similar to the classic Zork-style games. It allows you to create rooms, characters, and other game elements using a visual editor, and then link them together to create your story.

• Does any website or apps exist to play game books ?

  Http://textadventures.co.uk/quest. Has been a great website for me creating game books. It's open source, but the only place you can really publish them is through their website/game engine. Twine is great, but Quest feels more user friendly. Source: over 1 year ago

• Software for creating CYOA interactive novels + dice rolls

• Can you make other games then dating sim in renpy? If yes how? second question does anyone know how to do this (afection points for "good" answear) in unity?

  I mean, text-based are Quest and Twine, but you'd have to ask in their forums and reddits if you can put fancy minigames in. You could look into Game Maker which is a 2D engine. You could try any of the RPG Makers, which come with a pretty big collection of graphics and also have communities that make and share even more (graphics, audio, scripts, etc). Other engines I know (but never even touched, so I have no... Source: over 2 years ago

• What is easier to make a story driven plot game, or a multiplayer game?

  Story driven could be as simple as a simple branching strategy in a text based game . For examples: http://textadventures.co.uk/quest. Source: over 2 years ago

• Rendering game worlds in text [video]

  You could always check out AIDungeon for some ideas about how AI story generation goes. It works alright for story generation as long as you don't mind editing or retrtying , but as an actual game, not so much. They added some game like features in there, but they don't work very well. As far as actually writing a text adventure game goes these days, there's lots of options for languages and libraries that are... - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago
