N2 - We present anew dialogue engine called Flipper 2.0 (Flipper) which aims to help developers of embodied conversational agents (ECAs) to quickly and flexibly create dialogues. Flipper provides a technically stable and robust dialogue management system to integrate with other components of ECAs such as behaviour realisers. We compare Flipper with state-of-the-art dialogue design systems. We describe the details of our dialogue engine, how it handles dialogue management and how it supports the authoring of dialogues. We demonstrate the use of the dialogue engine with examples of design patterns and discuss practical applications. Finally we give recommendations on the cases in which it is beneficial to use Flipper.
