March 31st, 2025 Changelogs!
New Features
Added Feedback Bounties! This is a new feature which allows authors to ask for specific feedback on their stories and reward readers for their time.
Added Community Leaderboards! See who’s reading, writing, and commenting the most on StoryForge. You can find the leaderboards under the “Community” menu in the web app.
Added Guides! Our new in-app Guides page is the best place to learn more about Feedback Bounties—but in the future it may contain other helpful information about different StoryForge features. You also can find Guides under the “Community” menu in the web app.
New planning card type: Plot! We’ve added a new category of planner sheets that help you sort and organize plot points for your story, available for free.
Added Achievements! We’ve added several achievements to StoryForge. Check out which ones you haven’t yet achieved in your profile!
Bounties use a new currency, Credits, which you can purchase in the web app’s shop. You can also earn Credits for free by responding to and winning bounties!
Not interested in creating your own bounties? The Credits you win from them can be exchanged for Quills or real money!
