# Introduction

### ¿What is this? <a href="#h.vba36gecuuv2" id="h.vba36gecuuv2"></a>

It's a (Kinda) new way of displaying and interacting with content in a webpage.

The idea is, instead of just using buttons and plain html to navigate a page, you can create a little "game like '' map, where users can explore your content in a more interesting way. And that exploring part is one of the most important ideas behind this project, you can create an adventure out of your page.

### ¿What can i do with this? <a href="#h.lbmzo92ozmb4" id="h.lbmzo92ozmb4"></a>

The system allows you to (hopefully) build whatever type of content you desire, a little graphic adventure, some cool looking webring, interactive web " buttons ”, or just a virtual hub to show off your work.

### ¿How did this come to be? <a href="#h.b6nahnrmnjs0" id="h.b6nahnrmnjs0"></a>

The idea was born while looking for some nice web 1.0 assets on [NeoCities](https://neocities.org/) i stumbled upon [bytemoth](https://bytemoth.neocities.org/brook.html) (really nice) page , they had a link going to some nice 90' compilation of assets on the [iconolog](https://afactor.net/iconoweb.html), sadly the links where down, but the page has a really cool "interactive map".

from where to navigate its contents (i encourage everybody to give it a [try !](https://afactor.net/pavilion/maps/index.html)), i started thinking on doing something similar, with the cool interconnected sections, and the nice sprites, but then i remembered the weird but interesting idea of "web towns" i saw on [Melonking page](https://melonking.net/melon.html?z=/town/index.html).

So, I decided to make a combination of all of these ideas, on one cool little project.
