Welcome to instantmess. - an online musical love story told through varied media. As part of this interactive fiction, you’ll encounter conversations, music, pictures, even a few offline activities - providing, of course, you know where to look…
The majority of the story is stored right here on this website, linked together by keywords, which we call ‘tags’.
Follow these instructions and you’ll be exploring before you know it -
- First of all, look up! No, no, not the ceiling. At the top of your screen, you’ll see your browser’s address bar - which should read http://www.instantmess.co.uk/tagged/help
- The ‘tag’ in the address is the bit where it says ‘/help’. By deleting this word, you can replace it with one of your own.
- Don’t be afraid to try things. If you put in a tag that yields no results, you’ll just be taken back to the homepage and free to try another!
Easy! Or so it seems. In order to explore the themes in full, you’ll have to use your own creativity and imagination - because of all the keywords, we’re only going to give you one.
It’s /start.
If, it turns out, you get really REALLY super stuck, feel free to consult our helpful /index page - which will tell you a list of all the songs featured as part of instantmess. Hopefully they’ll provide a bit of inspiration!
