    I kinda miss the old layout

    I thought you meant the synopsis in the sidebar. But I think you’re referring to the synopsis shown in story lists, search results, and similar places?

    Feature Request: Arithmetic Operations with Variables

    I’ve now introduced this for Action buttons: {action "Gain income" set game:wealth += game:income} Actions can perform multiple Game State changes at once, and each formula sees the changes made earlier in the same action. The reader’s Game State, inventory, and available chapter choices update...

    @Regin34 I also wasn’t quite sure how it should look in practice, for example, whether a letter would ultimately just be another styled box. It could still be a cool addition, though. If you have a particular use case for your story or an idea of how you imagine it looking, let me know!

    @Regin34 Thanks! I did think about adding something like a letter, diary entry, or note. I’m still open to it, but for now I decided not to introduce too many new elements at once.

    I like the new web UI (June 2026)

    Thanks for the feedback! We now have a native Game Mode check, so you no longer need to define a game variable or use an impossible condition: {if game} Shown while Game Mode is active. {else} Shown while Game Mode is inactive. {endif} {if game} becomes true after Game Mode is started...

    Removal of quick links to chapter and story

    Thanks, that’s helpful to know. Is there anything you would change or improve about those links when they return?

    Removal of quick links to chapter and story

    I wasn’t entirely sure whether those quick links were still being used much, but I’m happy to bring them back. Would you prefer to have both My Stories and My Latest Chapters back, or was there only one of them that you regularly used? What would make the most sense for you? I changed Top...

    Hiding categories

    New behavior: One or two columns: 10 categories Three or four columns: 12 categories

    Hiding categories

    Thanks for raising this, and welcome to CHYOA! I understand your concern. I made the change because showing all 32 categories created a large wall that pushed the rest of the homepage far down. The selection isn’t fixed. It updates daily based on story views within each category over the...

    Notifications for activity on Introduction chapters need to use the story's title!!!!!

    Thanks for the suggestions! I’ve updated notifications so that: - Activity on an Introduction chapter now uses the story’s title. - Chapter-related notifications show the chapter depth, such as “Chapter 36.” - Notifications for newly published chapters also show the chapter’s word count when...
