Story arc

How this shipped

Where wild ideas take flight and curiosity leadsThree beats: what pressed against the work, how the stack answered, and what changed once it was live.

I · Constraint

The brief

Mythology is fascinating but often presented in dry, academic formats. Interactive storytelling could bring these tales alive.

II · Build

The craft

Built branching narrative engine with atmospheric visuals and sound design. Reader choices influence story paths and character fates.

III · Proof

What moved after launch

Branching paths create 10+ unique story experiences per myth. Atmospheric design increases engagement. Choice-driven narrative increases replayability.
