Show HN: Nerative – Interactive Audio Hi HN, This is Curtis from nerative (https://ift.tt/3x5E4aQ) We make immersive audio-stories where users are in control of the nerative (think an audiobook meets choose-your-own-adventure). Although interactivity is popular in visual space (Netflix's "Bandersnatch", Tinder's "Swipe Night", and Minecraft: Story Mode), we saw a gap in the audio space. Myself and Co-Founder have both been working in games and entertainment for a combined 15 years and our goal is to offer people control over their experience through short, branching audio-stories. We just launched on the app store and are looking for as much feedback as possible on our MVP as we continue to iterate. Thanks for taking the time to read and please feel free to drop me a comment or message. Always happy to chat. -Curtis June 8, 2021 at 07:18AM

The newsletter was meant to help unite ...
