There's a lot I'd change about it - I think I'll write a postmortem in a couple days - but it's a big improvement over previous Twine projects of mine.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>motty, Twine is just a glorified web page generator with an intuitive interface for the hyperlinks. So the look of a Twine game can be completely modified the same way you'd modify a website.
