A absolutely beautiful snippet- the colors, the pictures, slowly picking through the text's bight spots to get to the truth... A mystery without end.

The splash never comes."

no engine! just html pages, styled with css… and 3 lines of javascript for the text replacement stuff.

Bravo on a strong, consuming thing. Probably not one for before bed, or for one living right over a certain spot between stations...

The atmosphere here comes through so clearly. Striking visuals, compelling writing. That little bit of something strange in the dark that a friend of a friend swore they saw once. Love how most of the little text fold-outs elaborate on relationships and the human component, makes it feel even more like a story filtered through a teller. Super cool.

Also how did you get the photos to look like that?

Love the aesthetic of this one. All those photos of people staring down massive tunnel systems.

The visuals are breathtaking, and the story grips you as it takes you deep, deep underground...

ages ago i had a dream i was stuck alone in an old maintenance tunnel deep deep underground and i knew there was so much solid earth between me and the nearest person and years later i still remember the feeling, a bit. which is how i know that this evokes it

the tone is impeccable, the visuals stunning and perfectly chosen, and the meandering storytelling super intriguing and wonderful!
