How do i make my own wip and write in choicescript?

Hello, i have been mostly an avid reader and also a loyal customer of Choice of Games and i wish to try my hands at trying to put some of own writing and hopefully make a game that people would love and appreciate, but i’m hopelessly noob at operating the website and on how to work on developing the game and publishing it as wip for people to give me feedback on, so can somebody who is knowledgeable about the process help me understand how i can do the same?

Also if there a user who understands and knows how to code can code the game for as i do the writing would be great but i think it would be too much but if someone can help me get my project off the ground then i would be forever grateful and hey if it actually gets published and makes money i would be more than happy to share it.

Gratefully Thankful
a fellow CoG user

You can also use the search function or google, there are a lot of guides to begin and questions you may have that someone has probably already made.

Hello and thank you for the reply, i have already finished writing the prologue and have been messing around with the coding part, for some reason i have been having issues inputing some choices correctly for the dashingdon playtest, hopefully i can figure things out quickly so i can make a post about it in WIP for hosted games, and have a nice day

No problem. You can always find help here, but make sure you search for the answer before, it might be there already.

You can look at this post, maybe you can try some tool to write that allows you to do the quickest and randomtest so you know your game is working fine before uploading.

I personally use VSCode with this extension:

It highlights errors before you even test it. So it is super fast and convenient.
But you can use CSIDE or any other editor of your liking.

Maybe you’ll find this helpful too. There’s a lot of stuff out there. And have a nice day you too.
