Salutatorian

No one remembers the one who comes in second...

This branching narrative game follows Grace Li through the middle half of her final semester at Elk Woods High School. Despite her best efforts, she finds herself in the middle of a war for class rank between popular know-it-all Lauren Matthews and loner prodigy Sophia Petrenko who would do anything to win. Who will get second place, and who will get... third?

This was written in Twine. A run of the game has around 10k words and takes around an hour to read and play through.

This was created for a class I took, and a postmortem I wrote on it (before implementing color text) discussing my intention in writing it:
