The Pitch
The Pitch is a short text-based narrative-driven videogame made with Twine.
It runs on any web browser on any device.
The game is played by clicking on hyperlinks to make dialog choices to advance the story. These choices are tracked to determine which one of multiple endings is displayed at the story's conclusion.
Rated 14+ for explicit language.
"Often, it all comes down to one guy making a pitch. The entire course of history can change with the right choice of words. In this game, players will experience a spacefaring science-fiction adventure set in the far future, as a rebel army sends a key asset on a sensitive mission: sell this rich bastard on our war, secure the funds needed to win the war, come back home with a closed deal, and secure our freedom forever."
Can you ensure our victory, all without firing a shot? Well, we'll see about that.
