Well with Despairbound going on the back burner, as I lost most of my motivation for it, I decided it was time to launch this adventure! I spent some time creating the characters and setting, but I'm leaving the plot very open so it can be mainly suggestion driven.
The main inspirations for this are Lost (but don't worry it's not a total rip-off) and of course Homestuck itself - mostly in the form of pesterlogs and the dual art style of sprites and something that is reminiscent of hero mode (aka one of the only things I can draw somewhat decently.)
Anyway, I don't want to blab on or give too much away, so hope you like it! > New Game |

Or more seriously,
Julie Callins.
--> Don't move much. Just enjoy the sea air, the soft rush of the waves, the warm sun beaming down on you. Try to cough up all that sea water you drank whilst unconscious.

Julie Callins. --> Don't move much. Just enjoy the sea air, the soft rush of the waves, the warm sun beaming down on you. Try to cough up all that sea water you drank whilst unconscious.   Your name is JULIE CALLINS, and definitely not anything outrageous like PLANK or BLOODYFACE McSANDLASS. Up above you the sun shines its warm rays onto your skin, and the cool breeze drifts through the deep blue sky. It's a perfect, beautiful day.  Or at least it would be, had you not just washed up here like a bloated, dead whale. > Get up and render yourself in a more appropriate manner. You do so. Then after you heave all that seawater out of your lungs, you take a look around. You've just woken up on a beach with no memory of how you – wait a minute. Are you on an ISLAND, with AMNESIA? Where there seems to be NO SIGN OF CIVILIZATION? What kind of awful trope is this! No, this is not happening. Clearly this must be a dream or something, because you are not having any part of this. |

Look around for ~Hidden Camera Crews~. Hahaha, very funny. I get it, "It's just a prank, bro. You're *totally stranded in the middle of nowhere*. You got me. Let's end it now."
Is this a reality TV show? Shouldn't they be paying you to be here? Or give you a script?
OH GOSH. WHAT IF IT'S REAL?
Feel the local trees to test AUTHENTICITY!

Is this a reality TV show? Shouldn't they be paying you to be here? Or give you a script? OH GOSH. WHAT IF IT'S REAL? Feel the local trees to test AUTHENTICITY!  It occurs to you that this is nothing like your usual NIGHTMARES, though. In fact, this seems more like the setup for a GARISH REALITY SHOW - one that dumps its unwitting participants into a bizarre location. Could it be that you've found yourself on...a JAPANESE game show? You know someone who would just get a kick out of that notion. You peek around the trees, looking for any hidden cameras. Aaaand nope. Just a bunch of trees.  Hmm...this gives you an idea... >Punch trees in the nook to establish unreality.   You successfully establish reality. >Suddenly realize you're bleeding >PANIC  You appear to have injured your hand punching the tree. But wait...where's that blood dripping from?  OHMYGODYOURHEADISBLEEDING! ... Yeah you probably just bumped it while you were busy bobbing around in the ocean. Actually, that might explain your memory loss. Luckily, it is not a serious injury. >Julie: Wash blood off face with seawater.  The salt stings, but at least the blood is gone.  You then take a moment to check on your STATS. Not bad, you should be good for a while. You will want to prevent injuring yourself again, though. |

Scan horizon for sinking ship / crashed airplane. Where exactly *did* you come from? Were you on a trip?
Do the trees appear to be fruit bearing (coconuts / bananas)? Are there crabs or fish in the sea?

>Empty your pockets!! Hopefully you have something useful in there.  Hmm, looking pretty sparse. But hey, you still have your phone!  Thank God for waterproof phones.  Huh. You don't seem to be connected to any network, yet you have a Pesterchum notification. Whatever, as long as it's working. You and your friends all used to use this app to talk to each other regularly, but these days you only talk to a couple of people. You wonder who's contacting you now. > Read message. Scan horizon for sinking ship / crashed airplane. Where exactly *did* you come from? Were you on a trip? Do the trees appear to be fruit bearing (coconuts / bananas)? Are there crabs or fish in the sea?  >Check around the trees for anything edible, like fruit.  You enter the jungle and quickly spy a few fallen mangoes on the ground, not far from the beach. They look pretty tasty, and you make a note to collect a couple for later. But first, there's something else you want to do. >Climb a Tree to get the lay of the land.  It occurs to you that you would have a much better picture of this place were you to view it from atop of one of these trees. There are no low branches to grab hold of, so you have to shimmy your way up to the top. But this is no problem for AN EXPERIENCED TREE CLIMBER such as yourself. You had an uneventful childhood.  At the top, you make use of the COMPASS APP on your phone to get your bearings. Facing WEST toward the island, you see the land rise up into a decently sized MOUNTAIN. There is also a tiny LAKE near the top, with a RIVER feeding out of it. You cannot see much else in this direction.  Facing EAST toward the ocean, you see the beach stretch on NORTH and SOUTH. To the NORTH EAST across the water there appears to be a SMALLER ISLAND. You can't make out any details about it from here, though. |

Keep a branch from the Tree as a Walking stick / Beat stick. Bundle outer shirt into a carry bag and place it on the stick. Carry your mangos in your bindle sack. Make a mental note that the Mountain Lake is probably Fresh Water - which will be very important if you get thirsty.
