Mobile Text Adventure Engine Setup I need a lightweight engine that lets me publish a small, text-based adventure on mobile devices. At its core the project has two parts: a simple app front-end that displays narrative passages and accepts player choices, and a back-end decision engine able to branch the story through straightforward conditional logic (no graphics, physics, or heavy UI work required). Scope • Mobile-only deployment: I am targeting both iOS and Android, so using Flutter, React Native, or another proven cross-platform framework makes sense as long as the final APK/IPA files run smoothly on current OS versions. • Text-focused gameplay: The screen shows story text, a handful of choice buttons, and a minimal status bar; no 2D or 3D rendering is needed. • Decision engine: Each player choice triggers conditional logic that consults stored variables (flags, counters) and moves to the next passage accordingly. Random events or inventory handling are out of scope for this first build; I just need reliable branching logic with clean, human-readable data files—JSON, YAML, or a similar markup is fine. Deliverables 1. Source code for the mobile app and the decision engine, clearly organised and commented. 2. One short sample story (five to ten nodes) proving that variables are set, checked, and branched correctly. 3. Build instructions plus a brief README explaining how to add new passages and conditions without touching the core code. 4. Compiled test builds for iOS and Android to confirm everything runs on-device. Acceptance I will consider the job complete when I can load your sample story, make different choices, and see the correct outcomes every time on both platforms, with no crashes or noticeable lag. If this sounds like a quick win for you, let’s get started—I’m ready to test as soon as you ship the first build.

Hello, This project is a great fit for my experience building lightweight applications with clean architecture and maintainable code. I can develop a cross-platform mobile text adventure engine that focuses on reliability, simplicity, and ease of future content expansion. The solution will include a mobile app that displays narrative passages, player choices, and basic status information in a clean, responsive interface for both Android and iOS. The decision engine will be separated from the UI layer, allowing stories to be managed through human-readable files such as JSON or YAML without modifying the application logic. The branching system will support variables, flags, counters, and conditional navigation between story nodes. The architecture will be designed so new stories, passages, and conditions can be added easily by updating data files rather than changing source code. This approach keeps long-term maintenance simple and scalable. The delivered codebase will be well-structured, documented, and commented for easy understanding. I will also provide a sample story demonstrating variable assignment, condition checks, and multiple branching outcomes so you can immediately verify the engine's behavior. What you can expect: • Clean cross-platform mobile application • Reliable branching and conditional logic engine • Readable story data structure • Well-organized source code • Detailed setup and build documentation Best Regards

Hi, I can build your lightweight text adventure engine in Unity, targeting both iOS and Android with smooth performance. I’ve recently developed a text‑based game in Unity. Approach: - Unity Cross‑Platform Build: Deliver APK and XCode project for iOS that run reliably on current OS versions. - Tree‑Based Decision Engine: Use a tree structure to store choices and conditions, making it simple to add new branches later. - Human‑Readable Data Files: Support JSON or unity's scriptable objects for story passages and conditional logic, so you can expand content without touching core code. - Minimal UI: Clean text display, choice buttons, and a status bar — lightweight and student‑friendly. - Documentation: Provide a README with build instructions and clear guidance on adding new passages. Deliverables: - Source code with clear comments. - A sample story (5–10 nodes) showing variables and branching. - Test builds for iOS and Android. - README with instructions for extending the story. I’m confident I can deliver a polished, extensible engine that meets your requirements and is ready for school use. Looking forward to collaborating on this project. Best regards, Umair Ahmad
