yo thanks!! honestly, our school project is very beginner. my school doesn't do game stuff so yeah. it doesn't really need code but sometime in the future we might actually switch to something else? thanks for the offer anyway :)))))))))))))) i too, love fake webs!!! for me it's kinda hard to find games that have that. Hypnospace Outlaw is a nice example though, if you haven't heard/played that yet. not free thooo

bbuttttt for my first question,,, what was that first part? like the "does any of this really matter to you" part... after that i went to impatient reader mode lol.. i def got really confused on the next parts. what i think is: you're like... in prison? honestly idk. there's a lighthouse? the character is coding and is very confused and sad? something about a dad? something about murder???? i'm very confused. but yeah, just a reminder, it's not ur fault. i take all of the blame of being confused. and also who are we playing as? are these people even our friends? i am totally gone... fades out of existence

gotcha! yeah no problem, i will be here if anything comes up. i'll look into hypnospace outlaw, it seems fucking sick. anyway, minor spoilers from here on out; i won't mention anything beyond the prologue and chapter 1.

this aspect of format is never explicitly explained, but i think it gets easier to pick up on after more play time, when instances of it are surrounded with context. the prologue (first part) is a dream-slash-flashback combo, one of several. this one involves your father, scott, and his weird comrade who you won't hear much more about for a while. don't worry about this not making sense yet; it won't really be resolved until much later. if you get to the end of the game and feel like you haven't gotten all the information you wanted about this, which can happen, feel free to try another timeline. 100%, even, if you feel so inclined. information given per timeline varies wildly.

you are in a lighthouse which contains a prison. initially, you are not in the prison part of the lighthouse -- if this changes, you will know.

you are not coding, but you may watch someone code. you are, however, somewhat confused and very sad, yeah.

you do have a dad. oh boy does he hate murder.

you play as harry arsigne, a fourteen-year-old boy who is incredibly bored of living in isolation. you do not have any friends, just surveillance software.

good luck!!! 👍

cool!! (also how the heel does a lighthouse have a prison) i'll reply again once i finish reading. honestly i'm really running out of free time, since i have school and homework... and uh, game communities to tend to. but i definitely will try harder to stop impatient reader mode from coming up again!

yakiii1 year ago

so... started reading it again, impatient mode off.

this is going to be VERY long. honestly it's making my laptop lag already.

i've noticed this.. when E.K. goes berserk on the windows. it says "we hear him go berserk". so yeah i suppose that's like the dream/flashback combo you're talking about. whenever i reach the car "what's in there?" part, and it says *you are*, i'm kinda weirded out. like, why are we... in our dad's car. or whoever's car it is. honestly, on the italic parts i'm confused on whose perspective it's on. but i always think the "you are" refers to a corpse, maybe.

anyways, choice part. it maybe seems that we're E.K. when choosing? not sure if it matters, so i just choose to scoff. it says "we are on another side of the room". we again. and it says "both".

Ohhkayyyy..... yeah, something's going on here. so we're a ghost, or at least like, invisible?

SCOTT (seeing straight through you). yeah, i feel like they're talking about us now. so we are in the car maybe, and idk what it means when Scott is seeing straight through us...

Next part.

Orange. The same color that said "you are". yeah i know, impatient mode was replaced with hyper focused mode.

so this is OUR lighthouse. "we wanted to put a light in the sky, so we did. and among the stars our creation waited for night and wept." for some reason, this kinda reminded me of like... a god? sorry, i'm an agnostic non-religious Christian, who learns about God in school, and has to read the bible everyday. it's kinda weird though, like wtf the lighthouse wept? maybe the lighthouse's light were its tears? interesting.

computer. cylindrical glass cage. i have no idea what that looks like. "it is probably your favorite place you've ever been", so like i got a little wonky here. like "ayo the computer is a place?!", but then i remembered that they're talking about the beacon room. either way is still possible, i think.

so, the beacon room makes me feel sucky. and we're isolated. like our father just left us here? ...but considering how they didn't see us, we could just be a sad, wandering ghost left to stay in this lighthouse forever. OR, maybe this is before E.K. goin berserk. and even more OR, we're alive and i'm stupid. the dream/flashback part was a weird one though... like how did they hear me scoff if it's just that?

anyways, i still don't know what E.K. went berserk on. okay, dad has a fear of heights/falling. sooo we have art, cool.

Oh, um. okay, dad's a corpse... yayyyyy.... or maybe this is just because he always looks dead when he's sleeping.

alright we see Scott's computer screen. or just screen.

So we got a security cam. A conversation between someone called Care, and Michael.

Espion Client. Screen of Jacob Wayer. so... Scott is spying on Jacob Wayer's laptop?

Espion Client.
Jacob Wayer. Laptop. 2911:785596
then we got Wren Wayer, also on a laptop.
Then Jacob again, but a cell this time.
then Wren, cell.
then... Virc..???? Virc or whatever. Cell. 3014: something something.
So the Wayers' numbers both start with 2911, maybe it's like a location thing? or they just use the same device. but it's a bit weird, like how would they know if it's Wren or Jacob?
Then Elise something -ley. Cell. 9840: something something.

I don't care if none of these matter!! I love acting like I'm actually finding things out!!

okay, screen of Jacob Wayer's laptop.

searching about disappearances? unsolved missing persons cases in CT 1? or something like that.

JUDE MEDINA - last seen November 23, 2018.

then idk anymore... "i'm just saying accidents like that can happen when ..."

a thread about... Conspiracies? possible. THIS THREAD HAS BEEN SHUT DOWN FOR MALWARE. oh um okay.

also, interesting how we call Scott, Scott, and not dad or father or any parent label.

okay, due to my *amazing* skills... I... copy-pasted whatever was blocked by text. i'm sorry, and i know, i know, i'm a disgrace :(

You mind if I take some of that, actually?

MICHAEL
Go ahead.
She takes the glass and drinks.

MICHAEL
How is it?

CARE
You haven't tried it yourself?

MICHAEL
No reason to.

CARE
It's pretty good. What's it for?

MICHAEL
Jude.
Mentioned, Jude shifts slightly in his sleep.

CARE
Fuck, that's tomorrow?

MICHAEL
Today.
In response, it freezes for a moment. (it??)

CARE
Seriously?

MICHAEL
Yes.

CARE
Fuck. That's four months.

MICHAEL
It'll get easier, Caroline.

CARE
I know. It just... doesn't feel like it, you know? I mean, what could change here?

MICHAEL
Everything will. Just... slowly. Be patient.
She places her glass in the sink.

CARE
I want to, I just...
Care crosses her arms and sighs.

MICHAEL
I know.
She steps back over Ty and climbs back onto the couch with Sara, taking a moment to settle in.

MICHAEL
Goodnight, Care.

CARE (very quietly)
Night.

...yes... the possibly useless information... i can feel it coursing through my veins...

yup, as i see now, Scott very much hates murder.

anyways i'm stopping here because... yeah i have other stuff i need to do 🤡
