New Number

WEEK 1 PROMPT:  "SAYING HELLO"

FOCUS:  An emulation of the old flip phone texting system

New Number had a development life with a lot of pivots. What originally started at a mid-2000s dating simulator molded into a scarier visual novel-esque experience. I was very interested in the flip phone texting system I was developing and decided to make it the focal point of this short prototype.  My sub-goal was to make it feel really juicy while also maintaining a little bit of the frustration you felt while texting on those old flip phones.
