how in the world did you figure out how to make the lizard's dialogue interactible ??? I really need to figure it out for myself because I want to implement it into my own site

i personally think its never up to an individual to decide what is good and bad. it should be a collective process. my mom told me that some people "need to be told what to do" to feel at ease in their life, but this same mentality leads to narcissistic cult leaders that ultimately do the world more harm than good. if it were up to me, humans would be a hive mind

I'm really glad for the folks here making sites. After slowing down and browsing around, my re-anchored attention span is way more sensitive to the psychic exhaustion caused by social media, even from folks I feel like I enjoy following. I just spent time engrossed in wikipedia, and I forgot how engaging that can be when my brain isn't expecting every single second to be filled with maximal stimuli.

I've been prototyping Runescape-like idle game mechanics in a browser and it's going surprisingly well

also incredibly cool site mechanic
thank you!! the dialogue pages basically work using js that appends a div with the content of the next choice into the page when a button is pressed. Like, the chat "log" contains "entries" consisting of text and extra stuff (like buttons). So when you click a button, the js appends the next entry. the dialogue info of the text, buttons, and replies in an object literal.
But also if you don't wanna do that, I think ink from inkle studios or twine have ways of exporting to html? I looked into those but I decided I wanted something way more bare-bones
Ah, thanks for the tip that makes sense !! I definitely have to catch up on js, I'm still struggling with basic popups lol.. It'll be good to have your comment as a reference though so thank you for taking the time to explain !
