I have two primary ideas for project 4. My first idea is a point and click adventure that puts the user in a survival-esque situation. I was thinking that my web venture could have 2 different endings. The first ending would be the “good” ending where the user survives and knows basic survival skills. The second ending would be the “bad” ending where the user dies in a stupid way. I am thinking that I could have multiple “bad” endings to add to the humor aspect of my project. I would create my own visuals from scratch for this project. I would also try to make the site somewhat nice to look at and easy to navigate. The adventure would have a lot of visuals and text to compliment it to help the user understand what is going on. Below I have created a basic graphic to illustrate the basic flow of my idea.
My second idea is something similar to that of an escape room. The flow of the web venture would be pretty linear as each page will have a piece of the puzzle that is required to reach the end. The final page of the adventure will be password locked and the user will have to combine all the clues they previously found to access the page. The puzzles would likely not be too difficult, and the beginning of the site will establish the goal of the web venture to avoid confusion. I would have a lot of creative freedom with the visuals if I went with this idea and it would likely rely less on text to guide the adventure. Below I have created a basic graphic to illustrate ideas for potential puzzles I could create.
