A [???]'s Journey (Illustrated Suggestion Game)
« on: September 26, 2013, 07:08:16 pm »

You gain consciousness within a black space.  You begin, without thought, to open some muscles.  For a second those muscles are clenched shut by pain before something slides over below it.  Again, those muscles are opened, but there is no pain this time.  However it is still dark.  You feel something slimely against your form, and something deep within you is telling you that you should be doing something about your situation...




This is going to be illustrated from the first person perspective, so that means you won't know what you are until you come across a reflective surface.  This does not mean you are a god.  If you chose the correct path, you could wind up being worshiped as a god, this does not mean you start out as one.

After three suggestions are made after each turn, I am going to start making the next image based upon a) the most supported action, or, if there is a tie, b) the action I choose.  Only two limits will be placed upon suggestions, a) it must be physically possible, or b) it cannot break the laws of the universe.  Other then that, have fun, but don't forget that you can die, and there are no restarts, so if the character dies, the game dies.  If the game dies, the thread dies.

Breathe; a long, deep breath.

Note: Don't expect this advice later on, I'm only going to be doing this on the first 10 turns so you don't die quickly.

Open your eyes. Keep them open.

The eyes are currently open...

Sure you want to breath a thick liquid?

And in doing so, stretch ever so slightly, so as to gradually attempt to assess shape and mobility of form..

Attempt to determine which way down is, which way is slightly easier to move in. Swim the other way.

>Move limbs. determine number of and if they function. Don't breathe in.

You stretch out your limbs, but you quickly run into something hard. It begins to shift, and you soon find yourself being flung all around, tumbling. You hear a muffled sound from somewhere past the hard stuff, but you barely register it as you continue tumbling. You then come to a quick stop, and the hard stuff is broken apart. You continue tumbling for a short distance, before coming to a stop, limbs splayed around you, still attached. After the dizziness passes, you see that the light has grown a slight bit better...

Then why can't we still see?  Is there really no light source?
