Timed choices would be awesome! They could be used like this:
NARRATOR
What should you do?
choice (calmtrip) [4]
"Trip" {
goto label trip
##totally embarrassing yourself
} "Stay Calm" {
goto label calm
##staying calm
}
4 is the number of seconds you have to make the choice.
Episode could even implement a way for creators to set exactly what happens when the reader doesn’t make the choice in the allotted time period.
if (calmtrip is "timegone") {
goto label trip }
“timegone” is basically coding-speak for the reader took too long!
Spread the word, and like this post, so it gets implemented.
