I know, right?
Shipverse: Inhibitions
SV:I is a game of... okay, honestly, it's a game of agentshipping. It's set in the Shipverse - former home of Agent Luxury - where, uh, people aren't all that good at turning down romantic overtures. (Don't worry, it's all PG-13 unless you choose to read it otherwise)
It's a browser-based game, running entirely in Javascript; it's been tested on Chrome and IE, and there's no XML in there, so it should work everywhere. Unless you have Javascript turned off.
Most of the details are (hopefully) explained on startup, but a few things you might miss:
-There are five unlockables, achieved by fulfilling quests and reaching certain scores.
-If you hover over or click on the speech bubbles, you can see what the agents are saying.
-You move by clicking on an agent once, then clicking on the room you want to move to. Click'n'drag doesn't work.
-It might have bugs! I know of one - for some reason, the quest generator will occasionally throw up a doubled name. I also know that it's possible to render both quests uncompletable - but that's down to you as a player, not the game itself.
So yeah. It's a quirky little bit of madness, but hopefully it'll be fun!
