*** BETA Release ***

This is a very simple story viewer for ink story files.

Ink is the scripting language developed by inkle studios and used in games such as 80 Days and Sorcery. See https://github.com/inkle/ink for the code and full documentation of the ink scripting language.

StoryBytes is built using the jInk java implementation of Ink (see https://github.com/micabytes/jink), which is not yet a 100% compatible ink interpreter yet. Notably, it does not currently implement threads and tunnels, as well as other features (check the github repository for the details). If you stick to the basic constructs of ink in your files, though, it should work fine. jInk will see further development, so eventually it should be capable of handling most of the ink scripting language. If you feel like contributing to that day coming, feel free to help out (jInk is open-source, and released under the Apache license same as ink).

StoryBytes is a spin-off from the source-code in Pirates and Traders 2, and is not a full product. It is released as-is, for people who would like to demo/play simple ink scripts on their Android phones. No guarantees that it will ever amount to much more than it is right now, as this is a project being done in the spare time of my spare time.

== Usage ==
- You can download a short demo script, Cloak of Darkness, from inside the app.
- To make files easily available for playing, place them in the StoryBytes folder on your phone (the folder is created the first time you run the app). Your ink files should have the .ink extension.

NOTE: If you run into issues with the app, contact me by mail or on Facebook/G+/Twitter. I do not have time to read/follow-up on reviews with any kind of regularity.
