the smilies arg
i decided that with my mass amount of free time that I had on my hands, and to try and get my mind off of things, i'd spend my time creating an ARG!
ARG (Abbreviation) - alternate reality game
An alternate reality game is an interactive networked narrative that uses the real world as a platform and employs transmedia storytelling to deliver a story that may be altered by players' ideas or actions.
basically, this is a puzzle game where the goal is to make it along the path and uncover the story, through different platforms and media! you'll get the hang of it, trust me.
Rules!
Do not spoil the ARG for others, you can work with other people but don't openly talk about answers to puzzles/post answers publically, etc.Don't come to me or others for hints, trust me, a puzzle is much more satisfying when you do it yourselfRead through the trigger warning lists just incase you aren't up to itDo not steal any content or art made/used throughout the ARG, most of it I have made myself and have put a lot of time and thought into <3
Trigger Warning List
The Smilies ARG, although mostly fictional, contains references to real-world events and experiences which may be triggering for some individuals. I advise caution if you struggle with some of the following topics.
abusedisassociationsuicide/major depressionThere is also imagery that may cause those with impaired vision or other conditions trouble. Please take caution if you struggle with eye-straining imagery.
The ARG contains reference to a real world experience to do with one of my close friends passing away, if you struggle with this topic please do not proceed.
