The background was dark while the font colours really popped with the pinks and purples. It was easy to read and caught the eye. Even the picture on the first page of the Twine added to the whole mystery<\/p>\n<p>Another aspect I really enjoyed about Johanna\u2019s \u2018Let me tell you who you are\u2019 Twine is how personalized it was. I could put in my name and, seeing as I could choose any answer, I know my results are completely unique to what I write. It is satisfying to know that I am (most likely) the only one who will get the results that I did. Johanna\u2019s aim was \u201cto connect with the player.\u201d To do this, Johanna needed to \u201cwork with open-ended answers and variables\u201d which would allow the player to have a unique experience.<\/p>\n<p>All these aspects made Johanna\u2019s Twine different to mine. My theme was more of a children\u2019s book adventure with background pictures. I also only had one set story with no individualized choices. If they selected the \u2018wrong\u2019 path, they had to come back and try again until they got it right. The players in my Twine had less freedom than those playing Johanna\u2019s Twine.<\/p>\n<p>One of the similarities was the challenges we faced and how we solved them. We both used online resources to get tips from other Twine users and we both found it challenging to find ways to play around with the font sizes and colours. Johanna referred to how texts can function like images (Bolter, 2001). Their size, font and placement can add to the theme, the overall mood, and the interpretation.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at Johanna\u2019s blog space, I found a pleasing aesthetic. I enjoyed the white writing on black background which differs from my black writing on white background. Similarly, to my blog space, Johanna\u2019s has one set background picture for all pages. My one challenge was finding where to go to access the different tasks without going back one task at a time. I eventually found them in the list of posts, all in one place.<\/p>\n<h3>References:<\/h3>\n<p>Bolter, J.D. (2001). The breakout of the visual.
