[Bitsy](http://www.bitsy.org) is a web-based interactive visual development environment game engine for interactive fiction and minimal games that are built in Javascript.
It includes a DSL for dialogue and scripting.
# Notability
There are thousands of games tagged "made with Bitsy" on Itch. Based on Bitsy's value proposition I would expect that they are all probably cute little 10 minute narrative experiences and/or queer angst.
# Example
Example Bitsy dialogue script:
```
You found a nice warm cup of tea...{blip "1"}{exit "0" 0 0}
```
```
{
- metBernice >= 1 ?
- else ?
{bernices = bernices + 1}
{metBernice = 1}
}{
- bernices == 1 ?
{tempString = ":"}
- else ?
{tempString = " " + bernices + ":"}
}Bernice{say tempString} {wvy}mrowwwr.{wvy}
```
