man the new hypnospace game announcement is making me think about an old project idea that i REALLY need to work on making a reality... it was initially inspired by hypnospace, and it's a lot like it in a few ways—the main medium being web-based, but the main difference being that it's a more directly character driven story. like hypnospace's fake internet is vast and shows little snippets of people through their webpages (which i really love) while my project would focus only on a few specific people's webpages. i don't want to go too into it but the concept was a group of dead teenagers stuck in a chatroom together. they all uploaded themselves to "the cloud". so to speak. they're all from different eras of the internet and their webpages/chat styles would reflect this... heeheehe
it's a lot more fleshed out in my head, but i really like the concept by itself. the medium would be a series of chatlogs on a very stylized chatroom program that you can read through (it'd be minimally interactive w/ javascript) & an additional archive of these characters' webpages with plain html + css, which would be fully interactive and would vary depending on the date archived. i didn't when i came up with it, but i now have the skill to at least start working on this... i think. once i finish up my other active projects i want to give it a try >=)
#this project is called 'chatroom2000' in my head because i never came up with anything better#i think about the characters in it a lot but i never talk about them for the sake of my own sanity. i love them a lot though#some strings attached was kind of a way for me to test the waters for this concept... and i'm very happy with what i have of that#someone's personal website is just an AMAZING medium to tell a story. there's so much you can do with it#and there's even more you can do with it when you're not bound by the restrictions of a dumb fanfic site LMAO#OH this concept was directly inspired by scp-2639 too i forgot about that. love that scp with my whole heart
