| + | Authoring an adventure is demanding task even though well explored already. There are tools that can help you to author it like <a href="https://twinery.org/">Twine</a> or <a href="http://textadventures.co.uk/squiffy">Squiffy</a>. However, | ||
| + | it is very time-consuming and error prone to create highly non-linear story due to the branching factor of such a work; maintaining overview what's possible and what is not is hard. | ||
| + | <br/><br/> | ||
| + | The idea of this thesis is to explore a possibility to change story authoring from manual to semi-automatic using a formalism for describing a story domain having some "story planner" that would allow you to generate it. That is, you would describe the story in terms of characters / relations / items / player / actions and let the planner to construct a path from X to Y... Finally, you would like such a tool to be integrated with some existing story editor (e.g. already mentioned <a href="https://twinery.org/">Twine</a>). | ||

| + | <li>read literature about story authoring for adventures</li> | ||
| + | <li>analyze it and formulate a workflow an author is typically using to create an adventure story</li> | ||
| + | <li>come up with an idea how to integrate semi-automatic story generator</li> | ||
| + | <li>implement it</li> | ||
