I Will Not go to Mars - Twine Interactive Literature Story

Play game on my Itch.io page: https://christianlocantore.itch.io/i-will-not-go-to-mars

This is a Twine game that I created, built off of a short story that I wrote. The story, 𝘐 𝘞𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘕𝘰𝘵 𝘎𝘰 𝘵𝘰 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘴, is inspired by Shirley Jackson's 1948 "The Lottery."

The story takes place in a futuristic world where Earth has run out of resources to survive, resulting in most of the population evacuating to Mars. Not all could go and not all wanted to go. Communities emerged from the people left behind, and each community found its own way to survive on Earth. In this story, you play as a lead character in an already established community who has difficult decisions to make in order to keep surviving on Earth.

I did not create the images or sounds in the experience.
