We are literally living in an unprecedented age of opportunities for your stories... When you look at tools in something like Tales that will let you do things that, traditionally, you would need an animation degree to do...or like heavy duty, hard core coding experience, the barriers just keep coming down.”

In the past, I brought other people's stories to life for mobile gaming companies, but with the Tales platform, I am finally making my own a reality. Tales lets me explore the plots and themes I find fascinating, and they're there every step of the way to help me hone ideas and make my game pop. With their data, you can see what works and what doesn't, editing until it's just right.

Among many reasons, Tales is set to become the best interactive storytelling platform because it gives writers two powerful things: freedom and flexibility. There's no one pushing you to tick all the right boxes; character diversity, for example, comes naturally according to the stories we want to tell and not because we're forced to have at least one of X or Y.

Tales is crafting interactive stories where your choices actually matter. Your decisions have a significant impact not just on your character, but on the game itself. The game tracks your decisions and significantly changes the story depending on these choices. The story will shift. Exposition will alter. Characters will live and die. At your hands. We made the world. YOU decide what to do in it.

I have never seen a tool like Tales Creator. It warns you of errors while linking to their probable solutions, it gives detailed metrics for things such as your scripting efficiency and estimated playtime, and it is looking better with every update. With Tales, I know I don’t have to just tell a story. I can give the player the means to change it. It is not about the clothes you are wearing, but the decisions you are making. About the path you chose, and the friends you lost or made along the way.

I've loved getting to be a part of the Tales family, and I had a ton of fun reading these entries!

I've really loved working with the Tales platform so far. Their engine is flexible and allows me a great deal of freedom to get creative with mechanics, while still being simple enough for someone of a non-coding background to create compelling stories. Being able to test in-engine whenever I want so I can iterate makes my workflow so much faster and better.

Tales has given me the chance to take a creative leap I never could've taken on my own. They've given me all the support I could ever dream of and a huge platform to share my work with. What more could a writer want? Coming from a world of rigorous outlines and little creative freedom, Tales is a breath of fresh air for writers like me. Their belief in writers to be the architects of their own stories shows in everything they do and I'm proud to be working with them.
