What happened to the original version??!!
I decided to see if there was a more updated version of this tool so I could avoid having errors or a rejected skill from Amazon, in case I decided to start using it again. I found this. I'm really confused, because it's nothing like the original at all. Will I still be able to use the original version? Or do I have to start all over again? I never had to use Twine or anything, and this seems like it would take a lot longer (and be much more complicated) than the original I've been working with before. What is the difficulty to set up, use, and get skills approved by Amazon compared to the original? Thanks, Camden
No idea, trying to figure out the same thing. This version's .git destination doesn't even exist!
I'm looking into this. What would constitute the key aspects of the 'original version'? Did you want to just not use Twine to build the game? Did you want to be able to convert from an earlier data file version to a current one? Help me understand what would be helpful to get you to where you want to be, other than a rollback (which would also rollback other changes as well).
It would be nice to have the zip file to upload instead of having to guess what should go into it since I can't find gamebook.zip anywhere.

The issue is that I have so much saved already in the original version. I liked the interface a bit more. Unfortunately, my choose-your-own-adventure typed skill kept getting rejected from certification due to their own template's coding faults. I have been working on my story through InkleWriter. I was just about to suggest somehow making a way to connect with those stories, but I just found out that they are shutting down for good in August. :( I do have a copy of the json and html files generated from them. Any way for me to use those? I'd love to not have to start over with making my story. Again.
@agro23 The skill now deploys using the ask-cli, so you don't need to find the gamebook.zip if you use that (which is recommended). Otherwise just zip up all of the contents of the lambda/custom folder (keeping that folder as the root) and upload that zip.
@talk2camden understood. I will add investigating that to our backlog.
seems like amazon/alexa removed the original repo to make a commercial tool from it. This twinery thing is nothing like the ui or the tutorial/blogs that linked me here. https://github.com/alexa/interactive-adventure-game-tool
