Struggle

Interactive Narrative, Programming, 2017

Struggle is a visual story game expressing the feeling of anxiety and insecurity as a woman traveling alone. The story progresses as the player makes difficult choices with the fear that a single choice can lead to a dark ending. There are 8 different endings.




This project is built with p5.js. The main logic of this project is to display data from a text file. The text file is separated into different sections of text, each to be displayed after the player has made a choice. Within the text file, an indicator of the corresponding images to display/sounds to play is placed at the beginning of each sentence. The program then processes the text file according to different indicators.
