Updated Template!

Twine Template
A downloadable template

I've now updated the template with the following:

  1. OpenDyslexic font
  2. Colour variables
  3. History buttons
  4. + Some general style changes

1. The OpenDyslexic

The user can now toggle the font Open Dyslexic in the Settings, for those with Dyslexia that might find it easier to read using this font.

2. Variables to change the colour scheme of the theme

I've changed all the hex codes to variables, to make it easier for you to change the colours of the theme. Instead of changing all the colours individually, you can now simply change the hex code of the variables at the top of the Story Stylesheet, and that colour will be changed in every instance of it throughout the template. I've also included an image file that shows all the colours, with their name, so it's easier for you to identify and change the colours according to their variable name.

3. History navigation buttons

I've added history navigation buttons that allow the user to go backwards and forwards in the story. This feature isn't necessarily featured in many games, as I think a lot of authors don't want the user to be able to go backwards and forwards, partly because it's "cheating", but probably more because it might mess up some variables. Still, it was requested, so I've now included it for those that would like to feature them in their game. If you don't want them included, you'll have to go to StoryInterface and comment them out, like so: 

+ some general style changes. Nothing major.

Hope you enjoy! ✨🤎
