ok what is going on here?! with the "why be a superhero when you can be them all", "securing" all the teams' socials, their names spelling out ALYSSA. 

my theory is that Alyssa is the Timesteerer with powers to manipulate the fabric of the universe, who magic-ed up her friendship with Layna to get the PR manager position (hence the inconsistency re: alek's memory of the english essays). she wants to control the narrative?

It genuinely made my day to see this theory, and I'm so excited that you are asking these questions! I left certain details ambiguous to allow players to come up with their own ideas of what might really be going on, and this is a super interesting idea! Thank you so much for playing!

Really cool premise, with dialogue that felt realistic - great rhythms and patterns to the interactions!

Thank you so much!

I think both the premise and the texting style of the game is super fun! Ive always loving seeing unordinary people in everyday circumstances/behind the scene of thing. I thought the world building and stuff was convey pretty naturally within the dialogues between the characters! Cool story!

Thank you so much for playing and for your kind words!

Great work! I find superheroes in everyday situations very compelling and this was a great little look into that style of storytelling.

I’d definitely be interested in reading more!
