i think the near-extinction of people making fun, deep and/or unique interactive text-based browser games, projects and stories is catastrophic to the internet. i'm talking pre-itch.io era, nothing against it.
there are a lot of fun ones listed here and here but for the most part, they were made years ago and are now a dying breed. i get why. there's no money in it. factoring in the cost of web hosting and servers, it probably costs money. it's just sad that it's a dying art form.
anyway, here's some of my favorite browser-based interactive projects and games, if you're into that kind of thing. 90% of them are on the lists that i linked above.
A Better World - create an alternate history timeline
Alter Ego - abandonware birth-to-death life simulator game
Seedship - text-based game about colonizing a new planet
Sandboxels or ThisIsSand - free-falling sand physics games
Little Alchemy 2 - combine various elements to make new ones
Infinite Craft - kind of the same as Little Alchemy
ZenGM - simulate sports
Tamajoji - browser-based tamagotchi
IFDB - interactive fiction database (text adventure games)
Written Realms - more text adventure games with a user interface
The Cafe & Diner - mystery game
The New Campaign Trail - US presidential campaign game
Money Simulator - simulate financial decisions
Genesis - text-based adventure/fantasy game
Level 13 - text-based science fiction adventure game
Miniconomy - player driven economy game
Checkbox Olympics - games involving clicking checkboxes
BrantSteele.net - game show and Hunger Games simulators
Murder Games - fight to the death simulator by Orteil
Cookie Clicker - different but felt weird not including it. by Orteil.
if you're ever thinking about making a niche project that only a select number of individuals will be nerdy enough to enjoy, keep in mind i've been playing some of these games off and on for 20~ years (Alter Ego, for example). quite literally a lifetime of replayability.
wyd when u and ur sibling start going 2 highschool and switch bodies one day????/ i mean ,, it cant get worse than this .pretend 2 be each other ,survive highschool .., easy, right?? freaky ahh friday ..
!!, HAII !!!! im feeling so joyous 2 be sharing an au ive been cooking up ..so heres my human ‘12 tmnt freaky friday au!!!!! :-33
4 context,, this is an au based off of the 2003 film ‘’ freaky friday ‘’ ,!!,so basically a body swap au,LOL. but body swapping wasnt interesting enough 4 me ,so now theyre human high schoolers ,…
this is SUCH a self indulgent au since its soo far from canon ,,also it was a really ‘in the moment’ type of feeling,so its by no means super planned out,. i didnt initially plan 4 it 2 be mikey & donnie focused ,but its how it turned out,,and i like it hehe .i could come up with a raph & leo plot,but its 2 be determined …,,,
,,,,,anywho, long story short, mikey and donnie switch bodies ,now suddenly fellow students are noticing that “mikey” is getting crazy good grades, , excelling in his classes and “donnie” is loud and outgoing and… .. … ,,wait…, involved in a band!???1?!2!
(in case theres confusion of whos who,, ill definitely make it clear through text color ..,orange text is mikey speaking,purple is donnie ! !)
idk. too many people drive like they don’t realize (or care) that they could die and/or kill someone. as a result of the way they are driving. sorry if i sound lame or ancient i just feel insane witnessing the lack of concern on a regular basis. The vehicle you are in is thousands of pounds going many miles an hour. do you know this
Fan letter has captured my heart (I love outsider pov and the concept of this was so beautifully executed, wholesome af), and I know I am not alone.
But while lots of people talk about Luffy influencing big-brother marine’s choice to steel himself and go back for his brother, I also truly love how every time Luffy makes a chaotic move in that battle, it frees someone.
It’s completely unrealistic, in a sequence that absolutely highlights the terror and horror of war when you can’t hope to compete with the power of the main combatants. But even in that scenario, even in a war in which he himself is wildly outclassed, Luffy brings hope and freedom completely incidentally to the people around him.
The only reason big brother marine is alive to make any choices is because Luffy’s ship falling frees him from beneath Oars Jr’s leg. The only reason the marine brothers aren’t obliterated between Mihawk and Crocodile when they clash is they are tossed aside by Luffy finally freeing Ace.
Luffy isn’t trying to help them. He could not care less for some random marines in that war. But it creates this beautiful aura of freedom that follows Luffy around, and you could say it’s just the Nika-ness of it all for the canon crunchy explanation. But it is just that Luffy is forever and always a force of good in the narrative, and it’s comforting. It doesn’t need to be realistic. I love him.
Urgh...I can feel the urge to ghost everyone in my life coming on again...no stop it...
me and the 4 other phantom busters fans cheering rn
