I’m currently working on a video about dialogue trees. That’s the kind of thing where you have a pre-scripted dialogue that flows according to your choices and some context. It’s often used in games but I’m pretty sure it could be very useful in apps, too (especially for onboarding).
(Just to be clear, this has nothing to do with AI chatbots. These are human-defined, scripted interactions.)
I wonder if anyone has interactive dialogues like that in their app. I’d be interested to learn your experience. I’d also be interested to learn whether you’ve ever though to have interactive dialogue in your apps/games but for some reason decided not to implement it.
My first commercial game was about ½ dialogue trees (in Ink, for which I implemented a custom engine). Now I’m looking at dialogue trees for my upcoming game. For that purpose, I made a tiny demo of pkg:jenny (which is a Dart implementation of the popular Yarn Spinner dialogue system).
