SPECIAL SECTION : Interactive Stories

[Lovecraft_lore2]

Are the Interactive Stories still a thing on Literotica? It looks like the last time someone did one was 2004 or so.

It is a neat concept. I am not sure if they are something that never caught on or if there is some other area of Literotica that I am not aware of. I am guessing 90% of the people reading the stories don't even know there is a discussion board.

I set the goal for myself of writing at least one story in each category. The interactive stories does not appear as a option in the normal menu, I am not sure if it is somewhere as an advanced option.


Here is one of the Interactive stories picked at random:

I don't think they're a thing, but I think Laurel and/or Manu said something about getting them going.

Don't hold your breath for that.

I've been here since late 2018. Since then, I recall two attempts to jam 10,000 volts into the corpse and get it walking again. One was Manu posting about some possible ideas on the subject (Which ties to NotWise's comment.)

Edit: Here: http://forum.literotica.com/showpost.php?p=90597421&postcount=1

But there was little actual effort forthcoming from the ownership side (Manu, Laurel) for any actual, visible changes. There was also no real groundswell of interest. If you search this Forum you can probably find the threads, I think the most recent was months back but within a year. I think.

[Note: there's a specific process outlined for Chain Stories, but I don't know how you'd submit to Interactive...]

The Forum is linked to right at the top of the Stories Home page, but it would be the rare person who explores every link on that page. Right now, the Forum front page says 781 active users. And these other values:
Threads: 1,077,508, Posts: 60,806,304, Members: 2,665,878
So 90% might be low

Interactive stories are coming back to Literotica, they're just taking a little longer than expected.

We have a working BETA that's been tested by a number of people, however, it is still not ready for release. For the last few months, we've been working on a major redesign of the interactive story creation interface and a simple variable manager.

We still need to get several pages of the new Literotica interface out (Category Hubs, Author Pages, etc.), so we've been pretty busy, but I'm excited about the relaunch of Literotica interactive stories and I hope you'll be excited when you see them as well.

Can I beta test please?
