Emily <3 is a brand new story set on an old-new social media. Customize your facenook profile, send some friend requests and determine the outcome of your senior year.
The game transports players to a realistic recreation of a 2008-era social media platform called "Facenook." Players can browse their friend's profiles, view their posts and photos, and engage in text-based conversations through the platform's messaging system. This level of interactive simulation allows players to become deeply immersed in the nostalgic online experience of the late 2000s.
The game features a branching narrative structure where the player's choices and dialogues during conversations significantly impact the story's progression and outcome. Players must carefully consider their responses, as they can lead to vastly different relationship dynamics and endings with the main characters. This emphasis on meaningful choices creates a sense of agency and investment in the player's experience.
The visual design and user interface closely mimic the look and feel of early 2000s social media platforms, complete with pixelated profile pictures, retro-inspired graphics, and a color palette that evokes the era. Additionally, the game features numerous easter eggs, hidden links, and interactive elements (such as a parody of YouTube) that further enhance the nostalgic experience and attention to detail.
The game's soundtrack, which features a curated selection of early 2000s indie and alternative music, plays an integral role in setting the mood and atmosphere. Players can listen to the characters' music playlists and even navigate to a YouTube-like interface to explore the songs and artists featured in the game.
While the player's avatar is not fully customizable, they are given the opportunity to personalize their Facenook profile with information and details about their character. This small level of customization helps players feel a stronger connection to the protagonist and their digital identity within the game world.
