With StoryQuest, you can create adventure e-books and interactive fiction that contain branching storylines, audio, images, illustrations, video, and interactive JavaScript-based content. StoryQuest delivers ready-to-deploy app archives in a platform-independend format. Clients are available for Android, iOS, ePub e-readers and Kindle e-readers.

StoryQuest is the driving platform for the Questor Books available on Google Play and Apple App Store with titles including "Markus Heitz's The Dwarves", "The Lone Wolf" and "Dark Orbit".

StoryQuest is currently in development and has reached beta stage. Feel free to comment or try. Caution: documentation is somewhat sparse at the moment, we're woking on this.
