Qu about whether Defold will suit my project

Hi, I’d really appreciate your advice on this.

I’ve got an idea for a web-based app for children and schools which I’d like to develop, but it’s not a game, as such, it’s actually more of a game engine. It is based around the idea of Interactive Fiction / text adventures / Choose Your Own Adventure stories, providing a simple, graphical platform through which children can easily create their own games.

Each game would need to be based around a database, which would store descriptions of the game’s locations created by the children, as well as the directions you can go from each location and which location each direction connects to, as well as data about objects which can be found and what to do with them.

So there would need to be the graphical interface for creating the game, the database in which all the information would be stored (preferably saved locally), and a second interface for reading the database and running the game.

Is this doable with Defold?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Yes! Why not? =)
