From the Press Release
Combining the interactivity of video games with the storytelling medium of a webcomic, Tell Me A Story... provides readers with a uniquely immersive and evolving epic. Seamlessly incorporating both still and animated panels within a single page, Tell Me A Story... is presented as an HTML5 based website, allowing you to make significant story choices while navigating bizarre 3D environments populated by alien beings. It's the Mass Effect trilogy meets Star Trek: The Next Generation, with a bit of Twilight Zone thrown in for good measure.
A collaboration of artists and mediums
An experience unlike any before, the Tell Me A Story... website is being built by a collaboration of artists and will take approximately 2 months to complete. The site will consist of an immersive environment featuring animated characters and backgrounds, sounds and music, and different outcomes based on choices you make while reading the story.
A timeless epic in an alwaysexpanding universe
Tell Me A Story... is the first of several Kickstarterfunded projects that will develop and expand the Tell Me A Story... universe. It’s a narrative experience only possible in the 21st century, where readers will make real story choices and help determine where this project goes next: a metastoryline that will expand based on community interaction, allowing readers to become participants and contribute their own ideas.
