Do you like reading? Then try 'THE COOKIE IS A LIE' 😁

Have you ever lied about eating a cookie when you were a kid? Well, in this epic text-based adventure you will, and it will escalate faster than you can chew…

Epic chase scenes, people getting abducted, a Dutch province getting blown to pieces, the king making a guest appearance. In this text-adventure it all happens. There are more than 64 possible outcomes for you to explore. The adventures are short and crunchy, so it won’t take long to complete one or two.

After your adventure is done, your lie will be shared automatically among the other gamers. The results of all played adventures are listed on the bottom of the page.

The game has been programmed in such a way that more stories can be added. The source is free to use, so you can add your own if you like. I planned on adding 8 stories, but I learned my lesson… I’m a programmer, not a story-teller. The making of this story took 18 hours to complete + 6 hours of correcting all kinds of mistakes.

I opted out of two categories: Graphics and Music. I at least have music in my game now, I always find it scary to make/use music. I put some royalty free music in the game, and I made sure to credit those :-) The graphics I am very proud of, I made some baller-edits to existing photo’s I found on the internet. Which is for me quite an experience, haha. But yea, maybe you now understand why I opted out of that one as well, it just didn’t feel right.

Have fun with lying in: THE COOKIE IS A LIE
