For our final project, we were given the task to create a interactive digital story. I planned to work with Mary-Lynn for this project. We were thinking to use either Twine or HTML. I believe Twine will be our best platform for the story we intend to tell. Although we have not completely decided on the story, we are thinking to tell the story of college students. Twine allows for different endings to the same story.
I was thinking to have the reader start out with a pretty linear story where they are just clicking through the introductory parts about the basics of college life; class, homework, group projects, friendships, etc. Then giving the reader the option to choose what type of college life they want to experience in the game. Do they want to follow the rules and do their homework every day, do they want to party and sleep through class, or are they an athlete that is stuck between excelling in the classroom or on the field?
Twine will allow us to incorporate sound and images but video clips may be a challenge for us. This video project will really put our talents to the test. We both have used Twine before to make simple and smaller projects, but this will allow us to expand our knowledge of the program. It also will push us to create stories like I never have before. We will have to be creative enough to not only write one story, but one story with multiple endings. This project is going to be challenging but the outcome will be well worth it!
