I often see Twine being recommended to beginners looking to create a proper #NarrativeDesign portfolio, and while it’s very good advice I would like to clarify some expectations that might go with it. A lot of newcomers to the craft seem to think that interactive story means player choices and consequences. While it’s true for a certain kind of projects, it’s certainly not the epitome of narrative design.
