Designed and developed during the Super Casual Game Jam 2 hosted by Lana_Lux, this game offers a blend of mystery, strategy, and narrative depth, set against the backdrop of a futuristic AI-driven society.

This repo represents my final submission to the Super Casual Game Jam 2.

How it's Made

Cortext was crafted as a static website, leveraging HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to bring its interactive narrative to life. The development process spanned several days, totaling approximately 24 working hours, with a significant portion dedicated to crafting compelling game copy and designing prompts for the AI to generate eerie images. A comprehensive external flowchart played a crucial role in ensuring the integrity of the game's multiple branching paths, enabling a seamless narrative experience across various player choices.

Future Optimizations

  • Better styling and behavior for the "mute sound menu icon".
  • CSS should accommodate better accessibility and responsiveness on mobile devices.
  • The variables used in the showImage() function should be in an array or object.

Lessons learned

Proper sleep is important for your mental health and overall mood.
