    Senior year of college, I took an elective seminar on interactive fiction. For the final project, one of my classmates wrote a program that scraped a LiveJournal and converted it into a text adventure game.

      giant castle, with an ornate front door.

        My own final project was a parody of the IMDb that was “what if the IMDb was about books instead of movies”, except that the user reviews told stories about people who turned out to have all gone to high school together before scattering around the world, and reading them in the right sequence unlocked a finale in which they reunited for a New Year’s party and their world dissolved so that their author could repurpose them for other stories.
