This is a great idea and it's fairly well-implemented. However, I think it needs some work before it's worth purchasing:
- I don't know why the font looks a little bit pixelated or blurry. And small. This cannot be adjusted in any way. This is really the biggest issue. It doesn't seem to be using the same font hinting as the rest of a modern operating system.
- 2nd-biggest issue is the formatting of the plain text export. It would be better if this were exported as Markdown, or something similar where the sections were clearly demarcated. That way the output could easily be converted to HTML, ePUB, Twee, or what-have-you by search and replace. This is important if you want to turn your gamebook into an ebook or physical book. Also, section titles are not retained in export.
- It would really nice if there were keyboard shortcuts for the various actions in the program, like adding links.
Those are the biggest issues. The following would also be significant improvements:
- It would be nice if, when adding a link, we could link to a section that does not exist yet.
- When shuffling sections, the first section should never be shuffled. It should always be the first section.
