Hello there. I am writing story for game. It is my first story for a game. It is multi-scenario storyline. Story itself going rather well. But my problem is: How to write this story, that later I could easily keep track of what is going and what should go next? It should be convenient to hold it on my computer, easy to view. I tried to write each storyline in separate doc, but in the end I'll finish with thousands of such docs. Maybe there is some tools for that, or some programs? Maybe I need to draw some diagrams? So if anyone have some practice with writing multi-scenario games, please help!

If each chunk does not involve too much text, you might want to give TiddlyWiki ( http://www.tiddlywiki.com/ ) a try. You can write blocks of text and attach multiple tags and then later look at only text associated with a given tag.

So you could add tags like "scenario_cloudcity" and "scenario_dagobah" as you write and then look at only one set or the other.

Scenario tree chart.

Like a family tree but with you chapter heading on the top of the tree and then branch down to where your characters will encounter a meetup down the tree.

Do the same for chapter two and so forth.

You know I think I will use that idea as well for my multi-story line survival horror board game.
