“Can anyone hearXiuya was a bit shocked after the questioning, but noo different choices appeared in the botto Xiuya felt that these had about the sa on ‘Yes I can hear you”

“Oh, thank goodness! I was finally able to contact someone!”

“I’ve waited for hours!”

Another two choiced popped up: ‘Who are you?’ and ‘What happened’?

Chang Xiuya thought that it would be better to ask who they were, tapping ‘Who are you?’

After two choices, Chang Xiuya already understood the difference between this and other interactive fictions

Lifeline didn’t have any narration or background descriptions, it was set up entirely as a chatting software But instead of chatting with real people, the player would be chatting with fictional characters fro a sci fi chatting app i the player notifications, giving the player an i to a real person

Chang Xiuya started chatting to this astronaut nah chatting, Chang Xiuya discovered that Tyler was an astronaut on a cargo pod, but crashed on an alien plant However, he was now completely lost He was a student who boarded to perforency situations like these

However, Tyler see jokes in such dire situations

“The crash site of Varia seems a bit closer than the mountain What should I do?”

There were two choices: ‘Head towards crash site’ or ‘Head towardsXiuya knew that this was a key choice for the plot As Tyler hinted, the mountain was shaped weird, and it was further away, obviously he should go towards the crash site!

Chang Xiuya chose ‘Head towards crash site’

“Makes sense, there could be survivors…”

“Alright, I’ South This should take at least one hour I’ll let you knohen I get there”

Afterwards, the syste Xiuya was shocked, what is this?

Chang Xiuya looked back at what Tyler said

“It can’t be that he’s really going toXiuya was shocked It was the first ti the player wait for an hour for nothing?!

All Chang Xiuya could do noait She didn’t close the app, however, fearing that she wouldn’t receive the e when Tyler replies
