NETRUNNERS © 2015 by H. Jacobs (/u/gevrik) NETRUNNERS is an ongoing interactive story in which you can participate by suggesting new choices and thus change the storyline in various ways. If your suggestions are accepted, the authors of the story will write a custom-tailored new passage for your choice. – by H. Jacobs Do you know CYOA games ? “CYOA” stands for “Choose Your Own Adventure”. It was originally a series of gamebooks where each story is written from a second-person point of view, with the reader assuming the role of the protagonist and making choices that determine the main character’s actions and the plot’s outcome. Into your world Netrunners – An interactive story Netrunner, a mix of CYOA and storytelling because your choices are not predetermined. Here you can suggest new choices to the author and he will take itinto accountin the newlist of choicesyou can make. Pretty good,isn’t it? I really suggest you to have a look and test it since it is quite addictive for people who like stories and you have the pleasure to be involved in the storytelling! Propose new choices and read what the author will write for you or simply choose the choices from the others 🙂 Here are some words from the author: Hoi chummers! I’ve been working on an online interactive fiction framework which puts a heavy emphasis on user-driven content. My first story is set in a Cyberpunk world of our not-so-distant future. In classic CYOA games you are presented with a number of set choices that you can choose from; in my framework the readers can suggest their own story choices, which when accepted by the author (me), lead to custom-tailored “responses” or new passages. It is a bit of a CYOA and Role-Playing crossover if you want to look at it that way. There isn’t much there yet, as I intend to leave pretty much all choices in the game to the readers. If you suggest a new choice, I will try to work on them as soon as possible, but please keep in mind that there might be several hours between your suggestions and any new passages for your suggestion. In time the game will fill up with new choices and passages, so check back regularly if you are interested in seeing how the story develops. Don’t be shy, post whatever suggestion you can come up with, but please no trollerino, only legit suggestions will be reviewed! If the framework works well I will release the source code on Github for other authors to use. If you have any constructive criticism or feature suggestions you can post them here. Finally if you are interested in participating in the story, go to http://netrunners.ddns.net and start your new adventure! As a reader of my new story I already proposed a new choice to the Author ! Enjoy!
