I tend to be a visual person, and I like to plan things out in a visual manner. As such, when I decided to start writing in choicescript, I decided I needed an intuitive, free flowcharting program. I found some software that I’m pretty happy with, and I wanted to share it with you.

This probably won’t be for everyone, but it’s working out great for me!

This looks like a nice piece of software, @FallingWithStyle  
I’ll have a play around with it.

The program I used for ‘The Race’ is a little more basic but doesn’t require a download:

I’m definitely going to have to try this out.

Just to give people options, I’m currently using [lovelycharts.com](http://lovelycharts.com) which is an online based flowchart program. It works really well, and free just like the ones above.

The one @FallingWithStyle points to looks like it’s more versatile though.
