Hey, I have just sent my first of hopefully many Gamebooks! ;D

I do have some questions/ideas though that Steet may already have thought about and just haven't had the time. But here are my ideas:

1) Could have an artist presentation
2) Having a cover like the Fan Fictions
3) This may make it easier for things, but it may be hard to do I don't know; put it in "Fan Games" Wouldn't that save space on the menu?
4) Be able to change the information for the gamebook on the gamebook edit menu so you can change the name and description.


One more quick extra, maybe when there are enough, they could make "most popular gamebooks" like fan fics? But that really isn't important, just an idea.

Thanks for reading and if you could tell me if these are at all possible, that would be great! ;)

I still think it's closer to a fanfic than a game, but I don't know. I also didn't want to put it in the games section because I know very few people would go in there.

Possible, I'll see.

Also, keep in mind that it's only a first version, I shall improve some things, when I get the time (as always...) I only hope to make improvements soon.

Well, when it asks you to link page one to page tw, it gives you choices, but along with the pages I made, your gamebook's pages were available to choose. So I tested this, and whenever I selected a certain action to do, it led me to your book.

It pays to look around the site sometimes, eh? I just noticed this.

And I have begun making two gamebooks. One is going to probably be extremely long, so I have been focusing on my shorter one. It will be around 30 pages in total - although many people will never figure this out. Because lotsa choices lead to GAME OVER. :lol: I enjoy being me. :] Anywho. I hope to have the first one up soon, probably send to get it checked at the end of the week. Anywho....

Wow...Now that's a really strange and funny bug. I don't even know how it can work, since they aren't in the same directory... :lol: I'll be sure to check this, but I still wonder how it's possible...
I've noticed though that your gamebook is entirely empty, no page at all...Mmm...I really need to test that.

EDIT : I can't seem to reproduce this bug, could you try again and see if it still does that?

Okay. I have a huge issue. I was working on one of my gamebooks ("Pick me! Pick me!"), and when I deleted a very old one, I ended up pressing the back button. It deleted Pick Me! Pick me! along with it. So, I was glad I had it up in test mode in another tab. So, I figured I could transfer it from the test mode, to the new one. Well, when making the new one (Which I renamed "Pick me! Pick me!... Not?") When I re-did page two, and added the actions... it took me back to the OLD game (which was deleted). This is what it says now...

And then when I go back to edit it... it did this.. (As you can see, it made "Hide Away" twice...)

http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x320/mayahuskee/doesntexists2.jpg

And when I go to pick from my gamebooks, only two show up.. when it finds my old game book when I go to edit the "Pick me! Pick me!... Not?" one.

Hopefully this can be fixed. X_x

Session problem, probably...You shouldn't edit (or test) two gamebooks at the same time. I hadn't thought about this. Will have to see about this.

Hey Steet, I started a game book (nearing completion) and I noticed something which may be helpful... if you accidentally create a page, there's no way to delete it. Is this something you could add in? The ability to delete a single page? If so I think it would be helpful.
Thanks for all the work you do on the site, and thanks for giving us Balto Fans a home...

HAVE a GREAT DAY!

...God Bless!

It's a great idea, I have done one before, and it was Balto related, but I don't remember it very well at all, it was actually highly similar to yours... oh well. I would like to, as soon as I learn how.

Yes, I wanted to add something to delete pages, but forgot to. I'll add that "when I get the time". (sigh)
