We made an executive decision. Usually, by now we would've sent out the Immunity email for the challenge on Friday. If you scroll down to the “Email Insights” section of The Daily Cannon, you'll see that is not the case. Immunity #12 is indeed called “The Hunger Games”, but we decided to postpone the email until tomorrow. Yes, we realize it is the day before -- don't worry about it, you won't have to do anything to prepare for Friday. Besides some mental fortification, that is. Other than that, you basically just come to school with your spoon. Keyword is “basically”.
Instead, we've created this little text-based game to serve as a sort of teaser for Friday. It basically explains the Immunity in a slightly simplistic form, but it gets the idea across to you. The game itself is quite plain and simple, but hopefully it makes up for its lack of style and complexity in sass and attitude. Took several days to put together, but here it is.
If you're worried about what the other options had in store, don't worry. This game is extremely linear. There's only one ending (but with this next sentence we'll proceed to drive you all mad). Or is there? On the reals though, there aren't too many branches and you likely only missed one or two scenes. If you really want to see it and you don't feel like playing through everything again, just open up the code and read it all there instead in all its JavaScript, relatively hard-coded glory.
On Friday, this game comes to life. Fantasy meets reality. #TBT. But for now, we're going to take a rest. This was way too much effort for one article. Hope it was worth it. Until next time!
