CYOA

Long before Ars Technica beat me to the punch, I had the idea to create a Choose Your Own Adventure using hypertext links. (I’m sure it’s been done in the past, but I’m surprised it hasn’t been done more often.)

Apathy took hold before I could throw anything serious together, but not before I collected some of the choices that would exist in my story. I found my list while cleaning out stuff earlier today; here it is, for posterity:

  • You are reading a “choose your own adventure” webpage. What do you do?
       CLICK A LINK
       CLICK A DIFFERENT LINK
  • It is dark and you are hungry. What is your next move?
       MAKE A SANDWICH
       KEEP BROWSING THE INTERNET
  • Suddenly monsters appear:
       GO HARD
       GO HOME
  • OMG I think that monster is following you!
       RUN
       RUN FASTER
  • Your friend wants a drink:
       SURE
       COFFEE’S FOR CLOSERS ONLY
  • A Nigerian banker has contacted you. He is willing to pay you top dollar for your assistance.
       DEAL
       NO DEAL
  • When this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you’re going to see some serious…
       SHIT
       STUFF
  • The one-eyed swordswoman attacks!
       HEAVEN
       HELL
       GO FOR BROKE
  • Greed is:
       GOOD
  • Regarding the aliens:
       THEY ARE OUR FRIENDLY INTERGALACTIC NEIGHBORS
       THEIR INTENTIONS ARE MORE SINISTER
  • He Who Must Not Be Named stands before you!
       SWEEP THE LEG
       BUT SENSEI I CAN TAKE THIS GUY
