Bulletin Board Poetry

You're finally here. Welcome to Bulletin Board Poetry and please make yourself at home!

Signed: Bird 


Bulletin Board Poetry is a piece of hypertext fiction set in an AU in which Bulletin Boards eclipsed the Web. Explore a simulated BB forum and read each users poetry! 


This little project was a school assignment of mine, with the bulk of it actually being plain old HTML/CSS. The only Bitsy in it is the 'New! Hang Out!' section, although I recommend keeping that one for the end if you intend on reading everything (but ofc it's your choice ;)). 


The poems and characters are based of ones I collected on old Geocities websites, I go in more detail about that on the itch page and link to each of their respective pages if you are curious. 

This was my first time seeing a project like this through, so I'm really proud of myself, despite how simple it is! If I had more time, I would've loved to integrate music and sound effects, as well as some animated ascii. 

And ofc making a longer Bitsy segment! It was made towards the very end and I had no clue how intuitive it would be, I did it all within half an hour or so.
