I used Twine App Builder to make PC and Mac builds of Swan Hill!

Hey folks,

I suspect that many of the people who downloaded my game Swan Hill rather than play it online did that because they might have been interested in the CSS I used to create the two-tone link system. If so, I'm suspecting that you folks may also be narrative game makers interested in building your own Twine games!

If that's the case, you're definitely going to want to check out Twine App Builder, a tool I just used to build PC and Mac versions of Swan Hill. I've added them to the game's page. If you are also interested in releasing a Twine game in app form so that it can be more easily released on platforms like itch and Steam, check out the tool! It requires only basic knowledge of Git and Github and I was able to get it working very quickly, despite the fact that I've used neither of those technologies for years and have never at any point understood either of them completely, haha! I was also able to use it easily with Swan Hill, which was built eight years ago using the older version of twine. Twine App Builder will also work with some other games intended to be run in a browser, like Bitsy.

Thank you for checking the game out! Take a look at the new PC and Mac builds if you're interested in making such things for your own games. And thank you to Emilia Lazer-Walker for creating Twine App Builder!!
