The Quest For Thinkin: Nightmare Breakout-Paper

Autumn Laine Hoskins, Fall 2021

The requirements and where I used them:

100 Twine Passages- I had a little over 100 all together

Passages Styled with CSS- All passages were styled with CSS

Autobiographical Character- Tixy was the autobiographical character. The whole story takes place with her taking you along with her

This whole game was inspired by my derive. I took my walk during night with a friend and I had anxiety the whole time so that's what inspired Tixy and then the story is based on walking.

CharNG- I took the dialogue that the ghost uses when it first talks and I put that into CharNG and the line "Take my love" came up and so I used that with the ghost saying that after being rescued.

Googlism- I typed in "Tixy" into googlism and did the "who" and "Tixy is not running" is what came up so I used that as a part of Tixy's introduction to herself.

Crowdsourcing & Otter.ai- I used otter.ai to reccord a conversation my fiance was having with his friend on a video game character and I used what came out of that to describe some of tixy's trates, like her pink hair and agility. This is also what I used as my crowdsourcing.

N+7- I took "The fog has gotten so thick this way I can't see anything. It looks like we're just going to have to" and pasted it into n+7 and it gave me "The fog has gotten so thick this 'week' I can't see anything. It looks like we're just going to have to"

Oblique Strategies- Card 1. "Take a Break" Card 2. "Turn it Upsidedown" Card 3. "Distorting Time" Card 4."Ghost Echos" Card 5. "Children-speaking-singing" With Card 1 I used it when they are waling and there is this pretty scenery with the steps and they take a break. Card 2 I used when the ghost is stuck upside down. Card 3 I used when they take a break and spend forever there getting lost in time. Card 4 I used with the ghost echo audio. and Card 5 I used when the ghost mentions it's friends is what put it upsidedown and they are laughing in the background.

Botnik- I used for the game title. "The Quest for Thinkin: Nightmare Breakout"

Anagram Generator- I used "Anxiety" and it gave me "Tixy"
