What you get

  1. Native editable PowerPoint with separate images, text and internal links

  2. Offline HTML presentation, editable project and actual build audit

Good for

  • Interactive storytelling, workshop choices and illustrated adventures.

Not for

  • Hidden inventory logic, arbitrary game-state execution inside PowerPoint or perfect generated-character consistency.

How it works

Includes a local renderer

  1. Prepare the actual input

    Four original story illustrations, or the included underwater adventure.

  2. Apply the supported controls

    Edit scene titles, concise narration and owned artwork. Change the choice labels and target scenes. Declare different endings and test every route.

  3. Build and review the result

    Open output/index.html in a browser. Also open output/presentation.pptx in a PowerPoint-compatible viewer; verify the internal links and editable objects. HTML-only motion does not become native PowerPoint animation.

Why use this skill

Start with this package

The builder validates an explicit story graph, checking unique scenes, reachable branches and paths to an ending. It creates a portable illustrated HTML adventure and a PowerPoint with editable text, separate picture objects and native internal hyperlinks. The package supplies the working example, bounded inputs and export route so these do not need to be designed from a plain prompt.

What PopNow adds

Use PopNow for the missing Images in this workflow. Keep adequate material you already own, then bring new assets back into the editing and assembly steps described here.

Compare the options

A prompt, your own skill, or this workflow?

Start with a prompt

Your agent can create from a plain request. The brief, visual rules, asset choices, output format and review process still need to be established for that project.

Write your own skill

You choose and maintain the reusable instructions, defaults, file structure and checks. This is useful when your process needs different rules or integrations.

Guide reviewed Oct 25, 2026

What will this cost?

The included original assets can be reused by the local builder. Replacing artwork or adding optional sound through PopNow requires a quote for that exact request. Local processing does not spend generation funds; the agent and external editing/viewing work are outside those generation charges.

Generation is optional when you have suitable input material. Free skill. New media is quoted before it runs.

The skill package

Free to install under your account's download allowance. The package license covers your own and client work; redistribution is excluded.

Existing assets and local work

Reusing suitable assets, editing files and running local assembly do not call a PopNow generation model. Your computer and any required runtime still do the work.

New AI images, clips or sound

Quoted for the actual model, inputs, count, duration and resolution. Extra alternatives, revisions or optional enhancement passes can add generation requests.

Your agent and hosting

Any subscription, hosted computer, deployment or other provider fee belongs to that service. Installing this skill does not include those services.

Check the cost of your version first

Your assistant can inspect the available models and quote the exact request first. You choose which optional passes to include and approve spending before generation.

Ask your assistant

  • Use the PopNow skill "Choice-Path Adventure Deck" for my project. List the inputs you can reuse, quote only the missing media, show the quoted total and flag any unpriced steps. Separate optional enhancements, and wait for my approval before starting anything paid.

How PopNow billing works

Connections using a PopNow API key, including API-key MCP connections, spend from the separate API balance in USD. A ChatGPT or Claude connection authorized through OAuth spends website credits. These balances are separate; the quote shown by your connection is the approval basis.

Download allowances and current account conditions apply. A free package does not mean unlimited free generation.

How to use it

Questions

Do the choices work inside PowerPoint?

The exported buttons use native links to the corresponding slide. They branch between static editable pages; the HTML version adds a back history, but no hidden game-state engine is claimed.

Does the bundled example require paid generation?

No. The included assets or procedural inputs run locally. If you ask for new images, clips or sound, use PopNow with an exact quote and approval before generation; API USD and OAuth website credits are separate.

What is already packaged in Choice-Path Adventure Deck?

Validates the reachable story graph and maps each choice to a native slide target. Local validation, protected output and artifact construction. Runnable example with actual supported controls. Mechanism-specific limits and visual review criteria.

Which parts of Choice-Path Adventure Deck can add a charge?

How does Choice-Path Adventure Deck differ from writing a prompt or my own skill?

The builder validates an explicit story graph, checking unique scenes, reachable branches and paths to an ending. It creates a portable illustrated HTML adventure and a PowerPoint with editable text, separate picture objects and native internal hyperlinks. The package supplies the working example, bounded inputs and export route so these do not need to be designed from a plain prompt.
