Hey, folks! I’m an indie developer, and I just launched a new app that I think this community will enjoy: The Infinite Library.
It’s a choose-your-own-adventure app, but instead of being locked into a handful of pre-written choices, you can go anywhere and do anything—the app uses the OpenAI API to generate the story step by step as you play. Want to outwit an intergalactic crime lord? Unravel an ancient mystery in a forgotten temple? Befriend a dragon and start a tea shop? Fall in love in 1930s Los Angeles? It’s all possible, and every playthrough is completely unique. It even lets you restart the same story and take it in a totally different direction each time.
I’m a huge fan of tabletop RPGs like DnD or Savage Worlds, and I wanted to capture that sense of freedom within a written story that operates on your own schedule. The app functions like a library, with a catalogue of interactive stories across different genres, from sci-fi and fantasy to mystery and romance, and there’s even an audiobook option for every story in the app!
It’s available now on iOS and Android. I’d love to hear what you think, and feel free to Ask Me Anything if you have questions!
