Social Media Chronicles is a third-person interactive experience project developed by Unity engine. Our project is inspired by personality tests popular in social media, providing players with an interactive social media personality test using games as a carrier. Players will explore and trigger social media topics in different game scenarios. They will reply to discuss these contents in game, and the world will change according to the tendencies generated by the players. The project aims to uncover information about the roles users prefer to play when using social media and discuss hot topics.
By engaging with simulated social media scenarios, players navigate through environments designed to reflect pressing social media hot issues, allowing for a personalized exploration of digital identity and behavior. Social Media Chronicles stands as a unique blend of entertainment and introspection, challenging players to reflect on their virtual interactions and the impact of those choices in a broader societal context.
