Title: did you escape?
Fall 2025
I used Sublime text and Github
I tried to make something of a horror game. I’m from Owatonna, MN, and we have a TON of ghost stories, so that’s where I took inspiration from! I went on Creative Commons and surprisingly found photos from Owatonna. I suppose Owatonna always did have a lot of photographers for a town of 2,000 people (it was actually 25,000, but it felt like 200). But we get our county fair right in the middle of town, which is where the Pronto Pups picture is from, and everyone in a 30-mile radius would come to join in on the festivities.
I really wanted to make the website game like so, I ended up making it so that if you chose the “town” option, you would have the choice of starting over or the button of “uh-oh”, and from that point on, you had only one button to press, which was labeled “Did you escape?”.
