Choicescript is the language. That’s really the only way (for a Choice Of).

Dropbox is just one (but very good) option of sharing it. There are lots of ways to share, including websites of all kinds.

Well, the requirements for this language are pretty simple. But there are a few things that can make it even better. First, some sort of text editor, I prefer notepad ++. Next, I recommend making small, easy games using choicescript to sharpen your skills and familiarity with the language. From there, you can go on to make a great game.

However, there are certain skills that can help you in making the best game ever. lol. I recommend having a background using XHTML, Javascript, and CSS. This way you can alter the main file a bit and change the game layout to be how you want. You can also add more stat buttons and functionalities this way.

Finally, I recommend going through tutorials. Master the choicescript language. I also have to say, keep a look out for the Choice Script tutorials I plan on doing soon, going through the basics and the advanced parts of this language. After that, all you need is imagination my friend. Sadly, that cannot be learned.

One advice:  
Copy the “web” folder and rename that copy like for example “myfirstproject”. That way you have always one working demo file in your web folder if you want to make some small tests without changing your project.
