Inspiration
In a world becoming harder and harder to reach out to others we wanted to approach the topic from a different manner. With our project we are trying to illicit a self-reflective response from the player to think more thoroughly on the effects of loneliness and what they can do to prevent it.
What it does
Many different stories can be played where one play through will affect the course of other stories. It is all played within messenger by sending and receiving messages from a chat bot.
How we built it
We built the project using node.js and hosting on heroku.
Challenges we ran into
Storing state to support branching within a story.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
