Words in Darkness

The world around you is being engulfed in an ever growing darkness. The building around you and the items in it are slowly disappearing. Some items can be re-materialized even after they disappear. Can you find the items crucial to your escape from the void as it grows around you? 

The answers lie hidden in the darkness. Conquer the challenge if you can! 

Manifesto

Mechanics

• Hidden links
• Delayed text

The project will be a type of remembrance and search game that has the player look at the words listed on the screen and then have the text disappear. The user will then have to search around the screen and click on the right words. The words will dictate what items reappear in reality. The items will then dictate how the player escapes from the ever encroaching Darkness that has been swallowing the building. 

The words will only be visible for a short amount of time as the player enters each new scenario.

The game was utilized as a means to gain greater familiarity with Twine as a creative medium. I was able to gain a better grasp on the limitations of Twine and the mechanics that could be implemented when creating a text based adventure. It allowed me to create more innovative and interactive piece of media that contained features that could be utilized in future games.
