I can write a script to automatically create a table of content that is clickable, customize the style of the text to give each characters speech a different style or color, also, there is growth of some body part in the smut I’m writing and I’m currently writing a script that displays on a sidebar of the story the current size of the body part :3
You’re only a few steps removed from my favourite kinda smut game. Choose your own adventure text based smut a la CoC, TiTS and most importantly Lilith’s Throne.
Oh I love those games!! But it’s already hard enough to write a single story, so a story with choices and game mechanics integrated would be pretty hard for me. I’m a programmer mainly, not a writer, but I felt like there was not enough smut of the kind I liked online, so I’m currently writing one that has all my main kinks hehe
Ohhh I see what you’re looking for now! I made a far-too-long comment about document prep but at the end I mentioned Twine, which I think you’ll really like!
What advantages would it have over using an HTML file with CSS and JS in it? One of the advantages of those is that I can pretty much do what I want, as long as I have the knowledge of how to code it
Essentially it lets you write “passages” as individual files in one of their “story formats” and link them together into a story. The story formats support variables and templating and that sort of thing. You’d probably be most interested in the Snowman format, which simplifies the basic stuff but still lets you hook in your own JS.
If you’re happy with making everything from scratch, I can totally respect that! I’m just sharing stuff I’ve had fun with.
How does it compare to writing smut in plain text on paper?

You kinda sold me, I’ll have a look tomorrow to see if it fits my needs :3
Hell yeah I hope you have fun!
