4 Jan 2019 Several decades in the future, but not too far to be abstracted. Set in Wales - maybe? Not necessarily. Maybe it's not in the future, so much as it is an experiment. A society founded by eco-warriors, a survivalist colony. From the Welsh, but we don't have to be that specific about where it is. The equivalent of a lunar colony, but on Earth. Perhaps it's multinational - like the Mars experiment. Only long-term. What was that awful show? Something like that. The Climate Experiment. Earth X. That's probably our title. Earth X. Okay, so here we go. It's a multi-national group, and some of our main characters are Welsh. _____ 18 Jan 2019 What do they call themselves? Can they get out? -NO!!!! Are they a private or public enterprise? How big is the colony? What is its structure? I think I need my worldbuilding worksheet... Okay, started the worldbuilding worksheet on the notion that this is an Earth habitat, and quickly came to the realization that it can't happen in such an environment due to the need to incorporate carbon footprints: a distinctly industrial phenomenon: The habitat is enclosed, but its structure is not necessarily obvious to the characters on a daily basis. It’s large enough that it feels like Earth, rather than a biodome or ship. It’s about 1 square mile (about ½ the size of Bangor); 1000 is about the population of Gwalchmai. (Useful site – I downscaled – http://replacecapitalism.com/appendix-a-how-much-land-is-required-for-a-one-million-person-city/.) Situated in a temperate valley, mostly based on modern crops and agricultural techniques. Some use of hydroponics. Meat and eggs mostly come from chickens, though there are some goats for dairy and meat (no cattle or pigs – EarthX isn’t to that scale). It has some natural landscape features, like a small pond, undulating ground, and scenic vistas of mountains (though within EarthX there are only hills), and small forests. People have options of living in different spaces: millenium-style dormitories/co-ops, family houses, apartments, tiny houses. Power is via solar and wind. Food, agriculture, and water are entirely closed systems – all elements must be used and recycled. So where does carbon come into this? Carbon is an industrial issue. In a space/community this small, it wouldn’t become industrial. Dang. Okay. Not necessarily an Earth community. How about a colony? Restart? I feel like I went through this already. A survivalist colony started off-world by previous generation. Now they are old. They are starting to take shortcuts. I feel like one pathway of this – a much more involved pathway – will show the reader that the notion of personal responsibility for actual carbon is a misdirect; that we do have personal responsibility, but it’s to hold politicians and corporations responsible for their contributions. Smaller threads are for the small actions individuals can take. MARS COLONY!!!! YAS!!!! Colony to see if it can self-sustain, given the worry over Earth. Earth is in bad shape – the colony has no hope of help from them. But the colony CAN sustain itself, given its containment and terraforming. But not if they fuck it up. Why Mars and not the Moon? From the Moon they can look to Earth. Hmm. That might be better. Oh, oh! They lose contact with Earth: the older generation always thought they might be able to return to Earth, but the loss of contact cuts them off, and leaves them stranded. They turn to INDUSTRY, using up their carefully balanced resources, in order to try to get back to Earth. The younger generation, who are used to the balance, who know nothing else, and never really lived on Earth, must fight against them. EXCELLENT!!! So, going to restart the worldbuilding worksheet now...

3 Jan 2019: Popular books: To all the boys I’ve loved before Maze Runner Every Day A wrinkle in time Love, Simon The Darkest Minds Ashes in the Snow Monster (Myers) Pratchett’s Tiffany Aching books (humor, etc.) DEadpool Marie Lu’s Legend series Erin Bowman’s Taken series Homestuck!!!

Choosing people/pets? Counteracting diffusion of responsibility Social media: Instagram/Snapchat A snapchat-like story? Characterization Person? Animal? Alien? Time traveler? Simple actions Walking vs. driving Temperature interior Growing fruit/veg Unplug, turn off I keep thinking about reducing the size of “the world”. Put you in a bubble, and see how you can survive with limited resources. Maybe a totalitarian government forces each person to live on a certain square of ground. They have to make use of everything. How to be most efficient to survive? Something like Wool Something like domes/biodomes Something like The Martian Something like Millennium HOPE A series of vignettes advancing us into the future: now. 2 years. 5 years. 10 years. 15, 20, 30, etc. Worse and worse, until humans can barely survive. Floods. Natural disasters. Extinctions. Disease. Water shortages. Famine. War for resources. It’s part of a history series that everyone views, every day, so they know why they have to live so sparsely. Earthships? Make recommendations at the end - apps that gamify activities, social networks, sharing with others. At the end, depending on choices the player makes, they can roll their world back to a better one. Best case scenario: completely clean, efficient earth. Worst: a panicked leap to space from a desolate planet. So what is the actual story? Teens like Love interests (not necessarily hetero) Self-realization (coming-of-age) Feelings of control Humor Mystery/adventure Keep the MC & Love Interest to gender-neutral Attempt to use local/Welsh names Is there a Welsh legend that can be rolled into the story? What is the mystery? ___________________________ 4 Jan 2019 Remember - it doesn't have to be amazingly complex or fresh. This age group doesn't know all the stories! Maze Runner, Divergent, Hunger Games, it's all pretty simple. So maybe there's a group in the dome that is hoarding resources - selfish, not forward-thinking. The MC has to uncover this, band their friends together, even though they're not the ones in power. But it can't get out of hand - it can't get so abstract and distant that it's no longer about personal responsibility. So what are the endings? Hero Zero Villain _________________ 19 Jan 2019 So, I've got storyworld and some basic characters. Now I think I really need to get some details and the actual story. Thought of communications today: they will all wear a kinetic com - watch, badge, whatever. It can be plugged in to charge, but that uses up energy rations, so they're more likely to swing them around, fidget, swing an arm, etc. The device is com only, and everyone has to wear one at all times (it's also ID). It's a fragile society, and everyone needs to be safe and accounted for, and easily communicated to/with on the same system. Entertainment is in group settings or individual lodgings - and comes out of energy rations (unless in public). People tend to go to the public ones to save their rations. Entertainment packages have begun to slow down - there hasn't been anything new in ages. The Metra Senate has said this is due to some tech upgrades to the telecom systems, and is rationing energy even more to try to cover for the fact that no more is coming. The longer the com blackout goes on, the more nervous they get. There hasn't been a supply shipment in years; the Senate has said it's because the colony is super self-sufficient, and that was kinda the point, but they know it's because the Earth no longer sees them as an experiment, but as a repository of future homanity - or a lost cause they can't even afford to think about anymore (if they think about them at all). Our PC is an avid fan of a work of Earth art (similar to Homestuck), and hasn't had a new update in weeks. They and their friends lament the lack of updates, wondering what has happened. They come up with various plans to get info, lobbying Senate members (some of whom are parents), using energy rations to investigate, etc. Rations get cut more. PC's friend notes that the carbon balance is beginning to get out of whack. Maybe the carefully balanced ecosystem they've created is failing. It may be crucial that they get back into contact with Earth. PC begins looking into more things. No one has been assigned to industrial or engineering tasks in ages, though everyone is supposed to rotate through all jobs to keep their skills up. They go poking. They find the rudimentary ship. Shenanigans ensue. Key plot points: - Intro characters - establish storyworld - bemoaning no new entertainment updates - discussion with parents on Senate - work assignments (no one in engineering) - energy rationing - some protests, but Senate placates - PC goes poking around - finds shuttle project in the deeps - tries to tell people - senate lies - keeps pushing - rallies friends to vote senate out -> younger gen takes over Choices PC makes: - heating - temp in living space - energy use - entertainment - amount, public v private - transport: walking v vehicle - voting in Senate - agriculture (crops not equivalent to trees) - eating meat - cleaning solar panels - water usage: * showers * cleaning * leaving tap running * watering plants vs drip irrigation - trashing instead of reusing/recycling - choice of living space (size/efficiency) So, the major plot is as outlined above. How many others do I want to put in? I always like the number 7. The Uncle Who Worked for NIntendo had 6 endings, and it takes about an hour to get all of them. Also, in terms of visuals & audio: 1. I want to keep it mostly text-based, so the students can feel like it's something they can create. 2. Some visuals and audio are necessary, however, to keep/get them interested. 3. Maybe a color palette? Shifting subtly to certain colors per ending? Maybe even one of those things the brain doesn't notice until it's all done - slowly enough and no one knows till the end. So, continuum of endings: 1. Key political/activist ending above. 2. Eco-warrior ending - do all the green things, but trust the people in charge. 3. Neutral - not active, but not harmful - never finds out about the plot for Earth in endings 3-6 4. Somewhat damaging - awareness could bring more balance 5. Actively damaging - demonstrates lack of care 6. Villainous - conspiring with those damaging life. ______________________ 1 Feb 2019 Need to keep working on this steadily until it's finished. Have had a horrible week (lost Louise), and finding it really hard to concentrate enough to do anything productive. W: Bones L: You, Taylor Swift R: Nothing. Fighting a general malaise and depression. Cold. Trying. ______________________ 8 Feb 2019 Doing a bit better on this this week. Have decided I really need to get the story and text done before I mess around too much more with special bits and bobs like extra visuals, but there are definitely some things I want to do: - Add the com visual for messages. - Assign the points system for the smaller choices, so the endings differ based on these as well. see https://twinery.org/cookbook/cycling/sugarcube/sugarcube_cycling.html - make the first page mandatory to fill out - may need to add pronoun options for each friend as well - find a way to capture the links/pathways that all visitors click. The hot tracking doesn't work because of Twine only being one html page. My plan for getting the text done is that on each of my research days, I need to draft 5 lexias. Every non-research day gets one lexia. That shouldn't be too hard, and it will be drafted in no time. Come on, Lyle, you can do this! I have updated the background image - I blended two of NASA's earthrise images to create just the right shot of the moon's horizon with Earth on the right-hand side of the screen. Instead of a B/W Earth, this one is bigger and in color. I think it creates a clear image: we are looking at the planet from far away. Its location on the right of the screen mean it is out of interference with the text, but its color and placement give it salience - it's not a directly interactive component, but it is ever present, and its placement on the right makes the eye drawn to it with every line of text read. It keeps the Earth as a whole as a dominant theme of the story, even though it entirely occurs on the Moon. R: listening to YA titles (Jane Unlimited at the mo - dullsville). They're not spectacular, but they're a lot more interesting these days in terms of variety of love interest, that's for sure. L: see above. W: finished up Bones. Now on X-Files, Russian Doll, and New Amsterdam. _____________________ 14 Feb 2019 Well, I didn't make much progress on my plan to write 1 lexia per non-research day. Dang. Maybe I can catch up today a bit. R: not much. L: Jane Unlimited (YA, with some decision choices in the story, but no reader interactivity) W: Russian Doll, Ted Bundy Tapes, New Amsterdam Made the form fill-in mandatory, and gave pronouns to all the friends. Boy, the form thingy was a bitch! I really didn't want to have to get super into Javascript to do that, and I kept getting confused. But now it works in all my tests, and I even have a variable correction page that isn't just the start page over and over. Took me all freaking afternoon, but I'm really pleased with it. :D ...and then I tested it a bit more, and it wasn't actually working as I'd planned. But got it fixed! ...and then I got the com messages to work, and to resize themselves for the particular screen! Can't believe it's actually working. Who knew? ___________________________ 15 Feb 2019 1500 Working on the points system. Notes for that: GOT IT TO WORK!!! WOO HOO! Basically, looking at the documentation for the Cycling Link macro for Sugarcube (https://www.glorioustrainwrecks.com/node/5020), plus the basics of points systems (http://twinery.org/questions/2993/how-to-add-a-point-system, and http://catn.decontextualize.com/twine/), I was able to piece it together. 1. In the first passage where points are possible (here, it's "transport"), silently set the points variable to 0. 2. In the passage text, enter the cycling link as documented, and name it as a variable (use quotation marks around it, or it doesn't work - see Cycling Links macro readme). 3. For the link that advances to the next passage, add it as a link macro, including "if" statements for each of the cycled options, noting if they add or subtract points (I didn't worry about neutral options), then let it "goto" the relevant passage. And that's it! I tested it by printing the points value on the next passage, just to make sure it was changing appropriately. Really pleased. For the ending passages, I'll be able to add variations and advice based on their selections, according to http://twinery.org/questions/2993/how-to-add-a-point-system. ____ 1800 Some research notes: My plan last week to write all the lexias and worry about the tech later was dumb. I would have written a lot of lexias and then had to go back and fix a lot. Now I can do the cycling links and points as I go, so I can keep better track of them. It also means I can include elements according to the tech possibilities, because I KNOW them. Also, I'm having a lot of fun with this. It good. ___________________________ 21 Feb 2019 Late start today due to lunch meeting with Anne Collis. David has come to the realization that he has overstretched himself, which leads to me needing to pick up his slack in the intensive Denbigh workshops next month. My aim today is to sort the google spreadsheet on recording gameplay. Fingers crossed - that's the last bit of coding I'll need to incorporate. R: YA stuff. Bored. W: Criminal Minds. L: Amazon Prime's hot pop of the last decade playlist. It's inoffensive. _____ 2130 Okay, got spreadsheet recording going on the test.html file. YAYYYYY!!!!! Now attempting to apply it to the actual story. Let's hope I don't break it. I'm also thinking it would be good to put this behind a log-in wall, at least for the duration of these workshops. Assign user-IDs and passwords according to their questionnaire data. That way we can track their plays with their data. ____ 2230 Totally got it working!!!! freaking amazing. ___________________________ 22 Feb 2019 0930 Today I'm going to work on the log-in wall, so I have all the relevant parts ready to go. R: not much. W: Criminal Minds. L: Pop music. ____ 1100 Got the log-in working. Now on to pop-ups for explanatory elements. ____ 23 Feb 2019 0100 So the log-in isn't totally working how I would like it. Jennifer and Ruth made things a bit difficult in that they let everyone set their own codenames, instead of assigning them, which means I can't predict in advance what they will be. Ideally, I wanted to be able to have an array populate from a google spreadsheet, so that I could add new codenames to google spreadsheet without having to republish the whole project. But it's not working. At all. I worked on it at least 12 hours today, and Paul came home and tried all the same things, and epic fail. Can't get the twine code to read the Javascript array variables. Utter pants. So I'm tired and I give up. FML. ___________________________ 25 Feb 2019 1340 Coming back to this. I've posted in Twine Questions to see if anyone can help with the log-in issue thingie. For now, I'm going to move forward with the rest of the game, and see if that can be fixed later. R: various W: Criminal Minds L: not much Have added pop-up capability. Have changed the color of the cycling links. May add effects later, but for now am happy they are simply a different color. Made some font changes. I like the look better now. ____ 1730 Have programmed all the existing links variables, and added ending variables and a replay variable so I can see how many times one person replays in one session. Really useful data can come out of this, I think! ___________________________ 26 Feb 2019 1015 Okay, getting a start today. Still have no response to Twine Questions, so have cross-posted in Reddit. Surely at some point someone will help!!! :( R: not much, but bought a book today on why mediocre men get leadership promotions, and how to stop it, so I think I'll start on that! W: Criminal Minds, ST-Discovery. L: Keep trying alternatives to Ryan Adams, and they all suck. Trying Kurt Vile, Dawes today. Ed Sheeran blows. What I'm actually going to work on today: writing passages! Maybe. ____ 1130 Fixed some minor issues: - made it so the background image does NOT scroll with the text (CSS - "background-attach: fixed;") - changed the start page to HomePg, where now if you click "Play game" it shows the log-in box (using linkreplace macro). - fixed the spacing of the com messages so that it's closer to the top of the screen now that I've made the text of the game a bit bigger. ___________________________ 27 Feb 2019 Got a lexia or two written yesterday (why am I avoiding that so much???). I've now got a better image for the HomePg, though no title or better formatting. Still working on the GoogleSheet login array issue. R: Why Do So Many Incompetent Men Become Leaders? W: Criminal Minds L: Ray Lamontagne (he's not Ryan Adams, but it's the closest I've found so far). To do today: - write 5 lexias - come up with a title! - format title page text ____ 1900 Well, I did one of three: I formatted the title page. Still don't have a title, nor have I written any more lexias, but hopefully that will come! ____ 2220 AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA! I got the dynamic login code to work!!!! It was a simple fix (that I've now put in Evernote, and Reddit, and Twine Q&A), and I am so so so pleased with myself! It works beautifully. Yay me! I also got a couple of lexias written, so I'm calling it a good day. ___________________________ 28 Feb 2019 AAAAAHHHHHH, Feb is over! What have I done with my life???? Luckily, we have a create-a-thon this weekend, so I'm sure I will be able to wrap up whatever is left on this then. I better! R: Why do so many incompetent men become leaders? W: Criminal Minds L: still trying Ryan Adams replacements. Meh. ____ 2000 Mostly worked on the animation of the comsprotests dialog/pop-up. It was harder than it looks in Twine! But it's working nicely now. ___________________________ 1 Mar 2019 Got a request from Ruth to make sure they have an opt-out option, so I'm working on linking them to information about the project and giving an opt-out option. R: Nothing much today. W: Criminal Minds. L: More RA attempts - Josh Ritter. ___________________________ 2 Mar 2019 At create-a-thon. Just finished up with the shuttlemsg passage - formatting, getting the com-tagged passages BG working again, getting the image in, etc. Just trying to get the darn thing done! R: Not much. W: Criminal Minds. L: Rick Astley ___________________________ 3 Mar 2019 0015 Have drafted through Ending1 - there's not enough detail as to WHY the shuttle is getting built and what it's for. Need a clearer plotline there. Maybe a passage where the PC overhears Senators. Or maybe PC's g-parent (or a friend's g-parents?) give them a dressing-down about it, telling them why it's important and why they should play along? That would be just one more passage, one way or the other. ____ 0040 L: Cage the Elephant! How have I never heard them before? Loving them. Finished Endings 1 & 2. Brief break to celebrate. Only 4 to go! ____ 0300 Got another thread done (Ecohabits). Even though there are 6 endings, there are really only 5 threads, so only 3 more to go, plus the pop-ups. ____ 0600 Did it. All drafted. Haven't tested. Going to pee and take a nap, so I can look at it fresh(ish) in a little while. ____ 1015 All right, had about 3 hours sleep. Am now going to do some playthroughs and make notes on fixes. ____ 1115 Brainstormed on titles, and have 3 options. Might have beta-testers vote on them: 1. Bad Blue Rising (riff on "Bad Moon Rising") 2. Zero-sum (NIN song title) 3. No World for Tomorrow (Coheed and Cambria song title) ____ 1345 Have finished alpha-testing. I'm going to put together the beta-testing form and then maybe work on the form to collect their Twine games. ____ 1540 Game is live online at http://youandco2.lyleskains.com, beta-testing form is complete, and beta testers have been requested. Going to work on the game submission form now. ____ 1750 Pretty much have the game submission form. Used https://www.labnol.org/internet/file-upload-google-forms/29170/ All done - now on to the Twine Tutorial. ___________________________ 7 Mar 2019 1630 Have been working on the Twine Tutorial in bits and pieces all week, and finished it up today. It's now online and linked from the HomePg. Going through the beta-test corrections, there are no errors emerging. Titles so far have even number of votes, so that's annoying. ___________________________ ___________________________ GOOD TUTORIAL TO USE WITH THE KIDS: http://catn.decontextualize.com/twine/ Step-by-step, basic, but growing in complexity, with good links. Doesn't include much style notes, though. __________________________ PINNED - REMAINING TO DO: DONE X (14 Feb 19) Add the com visual for messages. X (15 Feb 19) Assign the points system for the smaller choices, so the endings differ based on these as well. X (14 Feb 19) make the first page mandatory to fill out X (14 Feb 19) add pronoun options for each friend X (21 Feb 19) find a way to capture the links/pathways that all visitors click.

X Make text messages so the user can control the speed X Make audio mutable on every passage X Mouseovers on hard words, optional audio pronunciation X Set font to "Poppins" to match website (Helen says it's easier to read) X Update institutional affiliations ___________________________ 29 Oct 2020 Have gotten all the word mouseovers and pronunciations done, and they all work. Now need to figure out how to mute them if I want. Whew. I had an idea about the user being able to control the speed of the text messages. Need a little button to click that advances the messages is all. Animation basically stays the same (although there's one long one that trails over the edge of the device, which I'm not happy about). It's through the click rather than the timer. ---- Later: Took all day, but I managed to get the mute toggle button on every passage! Happy day. :) Now just the animations to play with. ______________________________ 3 Nov 2020 Working on making the animations controllable. Quickly figured out the mechanics, then took a little longer to figure out the styling. Later... (4 Nov 2020 by now!) Got it done. Readers can now peruse at their own pace. That puts the kibosh on Version 2, bar some run-throughs for testing! Even later... Had a last minute thought about the word mouseovers - what if the kids are on tablets or mobile phones? No mouseovers! So went through and made a version with clickable words. Gah. Tired. _______________________________ 6 Nov 2020 Decided that two different versions for touch/click were annoying, so I put them all in one. Still two pathways, but at least there's only one Twine file. Have now created an "alt-homepg" so I can switch in and out of log-in & menu in the same Twine file.

18 Jan 2019 Okay, have the storyworld mostly worked out. Details regarding characters from that: A survival colony meshed with government experiments. Co-operative b/w private & gov’t. Earth is already becoming something of a myth: it’s easy to mythologize something that is only viewable from afar. Cities, air travel, foods, etc. Even the notion that humans could get so out of balance with their ecosystem – unbelievable on such a large, blue and green world that humans could use it up. They dream of going back to Earth, to paradise. Metra is a joint effort: financed by private companies in contract with governments in USA, UK, Japan, India, China, Russia. Various deals were made, not all equal. Inhabitants were chosen by an independent committee from citizens all over the world, but primarily in these countries. We currently have three generations of settlers in Metra: the original settlers, their children and their grandchildren. The elder generation is dwindling, and it’s mostly their children who are in political power. All – drawn from as many different cultures as possible. Multinational. Like the space station. Drawn from as many different people and cultures as possible. Only common language is English. The elder generations are in power, though they are necessarily fewer. They are in power because they always have been. Let’s say 1000 people – it’s small enough to be feasible, but large enough for factions to start to form, which is a good model for various intersocietal concerns. Many. Common language is English, but Spanish and Chinese are also common. The main characters will use some Welsh. There are rituals and traditions associated with each of their cultures, but they are already morphing, forgotten by the youngest generation who don’t see much point in them. The political system is cooperative. There are heads of each area: Agriculture, Distribution, Personnel, etc. They form a Senate with no set hierarchy. This sounds ideal, but it means they form factions. There aren’t countries, but there are factions. None are at war, though there are always tugs-of-war for resources, people, and power. They will become bigger as contact with Earth dies. The culture was founded strongly on STEAM concepts – that all subjects are important for human civilization. Everyone receives a good general education – enough to do all the jobs in the habitat. But also people can specialize in areas they like, and even pursue advanced degrees through correspondence with Earth. The current generation (middle one) is establishing a lunar university. ________________ So, then, let's establish the characters. Copying from previous notes: Player-character 15/16 years old ALLOW THE STUDENTS TO PUT THEIR OWN NAME AND GENDER IN! Has been fed the myth of paradise Earth all their life, but starting to question the worth of it. Something of an innovator - always trying to find a way to do things better. Really good with VR (art form), so can simulate situations. Highly curious Love interest (Friend2) 16/17 years old Rule-follower Friend(s) Villain Older - adult In power Ex-eco-warrior - didn't win, so just wants to live out life in comfort Parent(s) Lament the loss of the life they had - blame their parents, but don't take much responsibility for themselves. ________________ 4 Jan 2019 Player-character 15/16 years old ALLOW THE STUDENTS TO PUT THEIR OWN NAME AND GENDER IN!

Key plot points: - Intro characters - establish storyworld - bemoaning no new entertainment updates - discussion with parents on Senate - work assignments (no one in engineering) - energy rationing - some protests, but Senate placates - PC goes poking around - finds shuttle project in the deeps - tries to tell people - senate lies - keeps pushing - rallies friends to vote senate out -> younger gen takes over Choices PC makes: - heating - temp in living space - energy use - entertainment - amount, public v private - transport: walking v vehicle - voting in Senate - agriculture (crops not equivalent to trees) - eating meat - cleaning solar panels - water usage: * showers * cleaning * leaving tap running * watering plants vs drip irrigation - trashing instead of reusing/recycling - choice of living space (size/efficiency) The smaller ones can be toggles - readers should do the right things even in the course of following the story. Doing nothing leads to neutral ending. Can make it points-based for the variables - certain points shape the character, leading them toward hero or villain.

"It's probably some kind of glitch," you say as you dodge the jabbing stick. "I mean, it's not like everyone down there has disappeared suddenly, right?" Your friends fall silent, exchanging glances. Is there something they know that you don't? You notice the clock, and jam what remains of your lunch in your bag, saying, "<<cyclinglink "$afterLunchCL" "C'mon, lay off. Earth is still down there.

The lot of you feel pretty virtuous, choosing school over Earth-based gossip. It's not that much of a hardship, after all, to learn what you need to make Metra - your home, your world - the best possible place to live. Well, and a //possible// place to live. Earth's old moon isn't exactly a forgiving landscape. You're very glad you chose to spend the afternoon in school, even if it wasn't a required day. Today's activity is a mix of history, science, engineering, and psychology: given all the information and technology available at the time, you and your classmates are tasked with devising alternative plans to colonise the Moon, as they called it then. You spend the afternoon diving into the key questions your own ancestors had faced: What kind of future did humans have on Earth? Could its <<mouseover>>\ <span class="guide" id="det">deterioration</span>\ <<onmousein>> <<replace '#det'>>decay<</replace>> <<audio 'dete' play>> <<onmouseout>> <<replace '#det'>>deterioration<</replace>> <</mouseover>> be reversed?

How could generations of humans live without the complex life cycles that had developed on Earth, from plant and animal food chains to the carbon cycle that provided the air they breathed? By the time you go home for [[dinner|Dinner]], you have both a strengthened frustration with your <<mouseover>>\ <span class="guide" id="fore">forebears</span>\ <<onmousein>> <<replace '#fore'>>ancestors<</replace>> <<audio 'fore' play>> <<onmouseout>> <<replace '#fore'>>forebears<</replace>><</mouseover>>, for the lack of insight and action that drove your homeworld to destruction, as well as a renewed admiration for their <<mouseover>>\ <span class="guide" id="inge">ingenuity</span>\ <<onmousein>> <<replace '#inge'>>cleverness<</replace>> <<audio 'inge' play>> <<onmouseout>> <<replace '#inge'>>ingenuity<</replace>><</mouseover>> and <<mouseover>>\ <span class="guide" id="pers">perseverance</span>\ <<onmousein>> <<replace '#pers'>>grit<</replace>> <<audio 'pers' play>> <<onmouseout>> <<replace '#pers'>>perseverance<</replace>><</mouseover>> in sending your grandparents to survive and thrive on such a desolate surface as the Moon.

Everybody splits up after lunch, some to work and some to school - now that you're all 16, you split your time between lessons and rotating through the various <<link "job posts">> <<script>> Dialog.setup("jobs", "info"); Dialog.wiki(Story.get("jobs").processText()); Dialog.open(); <</script>> <<set $jobs to "visited">> <</link>> in Metra. You'd been preparing to move on to Engineering after a 4-week cycle through Communications - you like both of these areas, for different reasons. In Coms, you get to know people, how they work, how they think, what they like. You also get to work with the mainframe, which gives you more time to work on your VR simulations. In Engineering, though, you get to play with new solutions to ever-present problems. Like why that one solar panel seems to collect more ice and dust than all the others, reducing its efficiency and thus everyone's energy rations. You've been mulling this over for weeks. But you won't get a chance to try out any of the solutions you've come up with. Instead of sending you into <<link "the Deeps">> <<script>> Dialog.setup("Deeps", "info"); Dialog.wiki(Story.get("DeepsDesc").processText()); Dialog.open(); <</script>> <<set $DeepsDesc to "visited">> <</link>> to Engineering, your com-ID informs you your new rotation is in Textiles, //not// Engineering. Strange. You go where you're told - after all, there are engineering problems in sorting out the best ways to stay warm in space - determined to ask some questions about it at [[dinner|Dinner]].

A little thrill goes through you; if only it were you and $F2heshe alone. As if $F2heshe feel<<if $F2Pronoun isnot "they/them">><<print "s">><</if>> the same, $Friend2 slows to walk with you as $Friend1 and $Friend3 dart ahead into the tunnels. "You know," $F2heshe say<<if $F2Pronoun isnot "they/them">><<print "s">><</if>>, "I haven't gotten //any// coms from Big Blue in weeks." "Me either," you say. "Any goss from Senate?" $F2HeShe frown<<if $F2Pronoun isnot "they/them">><<print "s">><</if>>. "I don't like hearsay." You laugh and give $F2himher a little shove. "You and your rules! C'mon.

"Whoa," you reply. Before you can say anything else, a commotion sounds from ahead.

"Go on," the engineer gestures. "None of you kids needs to be down here right now. I'm tired of cleaning up after you." $Friend3 bristles. "Cleaning what up? The Deeps aren't off-limits." "They are now," the Gen2 says, herding you all back the way you came. "Go to school, go to your work assignments, but don't go skiving off down here anymore." "Come on, $Friend3." $Friend2 pulls at $F3hisher arm. "Let's just go." You all give in and head back topside, wondering just what the orbits is going on. Maybe <<link "dinner">> <<if $lunchtrashCL is "trash">><<set $points -= 1>><</if>> <<if $lunchtrashCL is "compost">><<set $points += 1>><</if>> <<goto [[Dinner]]>> <</link>> with your folks will drum up some info.

No one ever eats alone on Metra. Breakfast is something pre-made with the fam at home. And if lunch is for buddies, pals, amigos, then dinner is a community <<mouseover>>\ <span class="guide" id="unde">undertaking</span>\ <<onmousein>> <<replace '#unde'>>activity<</replace>> <<audio 'unde' play>> <<onmouseout>> <<replace '#unde'>>undertaking<</replace>><</mouseover>>.

As it has been for weeks, most chats centre on the lack of news from the mother planet. You dig in to your dinner, wondering if it seems a little light this evening. Before you can ask, a brief electronic //beep// signals an [[announcement|Rations Cuts]].

The familiar voice of Rhiannon, a <<if $Gen2 isnot "visited">><<link "Gen1">> <<script>> Dialog.setup("Gens", "info"); Dialog.wiki(Story.get("Gens").processText()); Dialog.open(); <</script>> <<set $Gen2 to "visited">> <</link>><<else>><<print "Gen1">><</if>> senator, bursts through the cafeteria bubble, as well as a couple of outdated com-IDs nearby, giving her a strangely mechanic echo. The hubbub fades. "Attention, everyone. As many of you are aware, we are having some communications difficulties with our contacts on Earth." "Not just our contacts," you hear a Gen3 nearby mutter. "//All// of the old planet is dead." Rhiannon continues over them. "In light of these issues, the Senate has agreed on a cautious course, should supply shipments be disrupted. We are temporarily decreasing energy and nutrition allotments-" "You've already cut allotments to 75 per cent!" This shout comes from one of $Friend1's parents. More shouts, grumbling. A few <<if $Gen2 isnot "visited">><<link "Gen3s">> <<script>> Dialog.setup("Gens", "info"); Dialog.wiki(Story.get("Gens").processText()); Dialog.open(); <</script>> <<set $Gen2 to "visited">> <</link>><<else>><<print "Gen3s">><</if>> get into it, pounding the tables with dinnerware. Rhiannon eyes you like you are unruly schoolchildren, then lets another announcement //beep// sound - only this time at 10x the volume. Everybody flinches. "Again, this is temporary," Rhiannon says, her voice clipped. "You all know very well the <<mouseover>>\ <span class="guide" id="tenu">tenuous</span>\ <<onmousein>> <<replace '#tenu'>>shaky<</replace>> <<audio 'tenu' play>> <<onmouseout>> <<replace '#tenu'>>tenuous<</replace>><</mouseover>> balance we maintain here in Metra, and our <<mouseover>>\ <span class="guide" id="inex">inexperience</span>\ <<onmousein>> <<replace '#inex'>>lack of knowledge<</replace>> <<audio 'inex' play>> <<onmouseout>> <<replace '#inex'>>inexperience<</replace>><</mouseover>> of existing without aid from the home planet.

It's not very big - not as big as the shuttles that come from Earth - but it's big enough. You can see why they've been shifting Gen3s away from Engineering rotations; in a regular work rotation, you'd definitely figure out that supplies were being shunted somewhere unusual, if you didn't stumble on the shuttle bay full stop.

Instead, you blast the pictures you took in the Deeps last night to the general Metra bulletin. A hush falls as people begin to check their com-IDs. You stand on a bench and shout. "They're real. I took them last night in the Deeps. Gen1 is funneling energy and supplies into building a shuttle." "All right, this has gone far enough." Rhiannon, flanked by three other Gen1 Senate members, moves to stand in front of you. "No structures are built that are not part of the public plans for Metra. No supplies are being squandered. We are simply being conservative while we wait to see whether or not Earth will return." "So why isn't anyone being scheduled to work Engineering?" you ask her. "Is this true?"

"Have you gotten so caught up in your own little world that you can't see what's happening to the rest of us?" You pull away. And to think you once had such a crush on $F2himher. "This is getting all blown up. People just like to get upset over things. It's nothing. It'll pass." "Wow." $F2HeShe stare<<if $F2Pronoun isnot "they/them">><<print "s">><</if>> at you as though you've suddenly grown an ear out of your eyeball. "Earth is gone. Metra is falling apart.

None of this is fair. You didn't ask to live on Metra. You didn't ask for these rules, and for Senate to announce rationing allotments with no reason at all... <<mouseover>>\ <span class="guide" id="comm">it's just outright communist</span>\ <<onmousein>> <<replace '#comm'>>it’s an unfair system that claims to be equal for all, but really just makes things better for the people in charge<</replace>> <<audio 'comm' play>> <<onmouseout>> <<replace '#comm'>>it's just outright communist<</replace>><</mouseover>>.

It doesn't take you long to come up with an [[idea|Side business]].

You send out a few messages. Not to everyone - you saw the scene in the cafeteria when rations were announced. Just a select few. In the right places. With the right connections. In any system, there are always overages. Margins. Waste. Granted, in a system like Metra, there's not a lot that's wasted; living on a barren desert like the Moon, you can't afford to waste much. But it happens. And it can be made to happen. So you take a cue from some of those old Earth vids, from when they had so many people in the world they had to lock some up behind concrete walls. There are many forms of currency in closed systems. Before long, you have more food, energy, and carbon rations passing through your com-ID than you have customers willing to trade for them. //And they tried to tell us we were short?// you wonder. //Ha!// You spend so much time in your new <<mouseover>>\ <span class="guide" id="entr">entrepreneurial</span>\ <<onmousein>> <<replace '#entr'>>credit-making scheme<</replace>> <<replace '#capa'>><</replace>> <<audio 'entr' play>> <<onmouseout>> <<replace '#entr'>>entrepreneurial<</replace>> <<replace '#capa'>>capacity<</replace>><</mouseover>> <<mouseover>>\<span class="guide" id="capa">capacity</span>\ <<onmousein>> <<replace '#entr'>><</replace>> <<replace '#capa'>>credit-making scheme<</replace>> <<audio 'capa' play>> <<onmouseout>> <<replace '#entr'>>entrepreneurial<</replace>> <<replace '#capa'>>capacity<</replace>><</mouseover>> that you don't even realize you haven't seen any of your [[old friends|LI confronts]] in weeks.

You pick the Senator you know best: $Friend3's grandmother, Saanvi. You use your com-ID's locator function to pin her down in the communal area of her family's pod. Saanvi examines the data you found in Coms, then sighs. "So what is it you want from me?" she asks. "I know Senate is keeping something from us. More than just this," you reply, waving your com-ID with the Coms data on it. "And you're blackmailing me into telling you." You shrug. "It's going to come out sooner or later." She examines you for a very long moment. Then she seems to decide. "Very well. [[Come with me|SenDeeps]]."

Unlike Earth, the Moon has no atmosphere, and thus no natural shielding from radiation, solar flares, or space debris. The first settlers on the Moon chose to begin their settlements underground, in the network of caverns and pits carved by previous generations' mining operations. When your parents' generation moved Metra to the surface, the Deeps were converted mainly to storage, and Engineering and Agriculture bays. Vast stretches of them were abandoned altogether.

You don't know who started numbering the gens like this, but at some point it stuck. Gen1 are the pioneers: the first settlers on Earth's Moon, building a settlement they came to call Metra. They were 500 persons, carefully selected from all around the Earth for their intelligence, hardiness, health, and resilience. The early days were treacherous; only 50 per cent of them lived to form families. When they did, they created Gen2. They also created a lot of rules: no more than one replacement child per parent. All Metrans rotated through all work stations <<mouseover>>\ <span class="guide" id="onar">on a regular basis</span>\ <<onmousein>> <<replace '#onar'>>every few months<</replace>> <<onmouseout>> <<replace '#onar'>>on a regular basis<</replace>><</mouseover>>, for the sake of <<mouseover>>\ <span class="guide" id="redu">redundancy</span>\ <<onmousein>> <<replace '#redu'>>having back-ups<</replace>> <<audio 'redu' play>> <<onmouseout>> <<replace '#redu'>>redundancy<</replace>><</mouseover>>; if a disaster hits, everyone needs to know how to do all essential jobs, just in case. They formed a Senate as a representative republic. They made the Metra that you know as home. Gen2 are your parents. They were born on Metra, but they were raised on Gen1's tales of Earth. They believe in Earth; they call it home, even though they've never set foot on it. They moved Metra from the safety of the Deeps to the somewhat bigger skies of the surface: you're all still under protective bubbles, but at least you can see the stars. And Earth. You are Gen3. You call Metra home. To you, Earth is a fairy tale. What you will be is yet to be seen. It lies in the decisions you make, the actions you take.

By the time you and $Friend2 make it to $Friend3's pod, things are already kicking off. You hear voices inside, so you go in without signalling. "Grandma, you have to know about the shuttle. I saw your records." $Friend3 is facing off with $F3hisher grandmother - Saanvi, a Gen1 Senate member - in the communal area. Her jaw is clenched, her arms crossed. $Friend1 nods at you and $Friend2. "They have pics," $F1heshe say<<if $F1Pronoun isnot "they/them">><<print "s">><</if>>. Saanvi waves a finger at all of you. "We're trying to save you. To save all of us. You never knew Earth. Colors. Sunlight. Breezes and mountains and animals and streams and beaches and leaves falling in autumn." "But if all that is dead-" $Friend1 starts. "We don't know that," Saanvi snaps. "We're going back. All of us." "Not in that little shuttle," you comment. "What if it's really dead, Gran?" $Friend3 pleads. "What if we run through all our resources, and we get there, and it's <<mouseover>>\ <span class="guide" id="irra">irradiated</span>\ <<onmousein>> <<replace '#irra'>>been nuked<</replace>> <<audio 'irra' play>> <<onmouseout>> <<replace '#irra'>>irradiated<</replace>> <</mouseover>>? Or the air's no good?" "It's not up to you." Saanvi's com-ID flashes, and she checks it. "And you'll keep whatever you know to yourself. We don't need a bunch of children sending all of Metra into a riot." Dropping the last word, Saanvi stomps out. You all look at each other. "Well," you say. "We either <<link "take the risk of bringing down the Senate">> <<set $F3HouseOL to "end1-activist">> <<set $ending to "end1-activist">> <<goto [[Ending1 Activist]]>> <</link>> or we <<link "do what we can to make Metra as efficient as possible">> <<set $F3HouseOL to "end2-ecowarrior">> <<set $ending to "end2-ecowarrior">> <<goto [[Ending2 Ecowarrior]]>> <</link>>, so that when their expedition fails, Metra can survive."

Saanvi escorts you to <<if $DeepsDesc isnot "visited">><<link "the Deeps">> <<script>> Dialog.setup("Deeps", "info"); Dialog.wiki(Story.get("DeepsDesc").processText()); Dialog.open(); <</script>> <<set $DeepsDesc to "visited">> <</link>><<else>><<print "the Deeps">><</if>>, in a solo-port, no less. Apparently //she's// not worried about rations. You follow her down a series of corridors in the oldest, least-used portion of the Deeps. And there she shows you their secret. It's in a massive room near the surface - well, given what they're building, it would need to have access to the surface. They must have used an old mining pit, covering it with a false roof to make it appear from Metra's surface like undisturbed moondust. A shuttle. It's not very big - not as big as the shuttles that come from Earth - but it's big enough. You can see why they've been shifting Gen3s away from Engineering rotations; in a regular work rotation, you'd definitely figure out that supplies were being shunted somewhere unusual, if you didn't stumble on the shuttle bay full stop. "Why?" you ask her. "Earth's dead." "Maybe." She shrugs. "Or maybe just the people are. And then we can go //home//." Earth has never been "home" to you; you were born on Metra, after all. But you still love its legends, its stories, its legacy. //<<if $Earth2 isnot "visited">><<link "Earth 2.0">><<script>> Dialog.setup("Earth 2.0", "info"); Dialog.wiki(Story.get("Earth2.0").processText()); Dialog.open(); <</script>><<set $Earth2 to "visited">><</link>><<else>><<print "Earth 2.0">><</if>>// is full of flashbacks to its earlier, lush, healthy days: mountains and streams and animals and fresh air and birdsong and warm sunshine on skin. "So what'll it be?" Saanvi asks. "Are you going to <<link "blab this all over">><<set $confrontSenMem to "public">><<goto [[Public2]]>><</link>> or are you going to <<link "help us get back to Earth">><<set $confrontSenMem to "end6-villain">><<set $ending to "end6-villain">><<goto [[Ending6 Villain]]>><</link>>, and maybe be one of the first to go home?"

You snap a pic of the shuttle with your com-ID. Before Saanvi can protest, you send it out on general coms. "You're not as smart as you think you are, $NickName," she says through gritted teeth. "This could tear the entire settlement apart." "Which is why it shouldn't be a secret," you tell her. "It might be time to <<link "bring Gen3 to the Senate">> <<set $public2OL to "end1-activist">> <<set $ending to "end1-activist">> <<goto [[Ending1 Activist]]>> <</link>>. At the very least, we need to <<link "do what we can to make Metra as efficient as possible">> <<set $public2OL to "end2-ecowarrior">> <<set $ending to "end2-ecowarrior">> <<goto [[Ending2 Ecowarrior]]>> <</link>>.

With only a thin, engineered frame between everyone you know and cold, dark space, every single person in the colony needs to know how everything works. One day, you might specialize in one or the other, but you'll always have basic rotations through all areas: Agriculture, Maintenance, Textiles, Personnel, Communications, Engineering, Medical, and Health Systems.

You think about your classmates, your friends, your siblings. Unlike Gen1, you never knew Earth; you have no reason besides myth and history to want to go back to a planet they killed anyway. Gen2 trusts their parents - have always trusted them - to do what is right for Metra. It's easier to follow along; they have enough to worry about, what with work and kids and some elderly Gen1s to watch after. No, it is Gen3 who can make the difference. You, $Friend1, $Friend2, and $Friend3 work together: you gather evidence of the shuttle and the supply drains. You expose the self-centred Gen1s destroying your home for what they are. You vote them out of office. You run //for// their offices. You make Metra the permanent settlement it was always supposed to be - not just some temporary holding cell. In time, you will build spaceships - in the open and with the right resources - so your children and their children can explore the solar system for new settlements. You didn't get Metra into this situation. But you will get it out. [[Play again?|transport][$replay += 1]] [[Exit game|HomePg]]

You, $Friend1, $Friend2, and $Friend3 make a pact: you are the new generation of ecologists, conservationists. You speak out when you see others making damaging choices, big and small. When you choose your work assignments, you strive for innovation, looking for ways to make Metra more efficient when it comes to food, transport, and energy use. You're going to make Gen3 the generation of change. For the better, and for the future. [[Play again?|transport][$replay += 1]] [[Exit game|HomePg]]

The lot of you feel pretty virtuous, choosing school over Earth-based gossip. It's not that much of a hardship, after all, to learn what you need to make Metra - your home, your world - the best possible place to live. Well, and a //possible// place to live. Earth's old moon isn't exactly a forgiving landscape. You're very glad you chose to spend the afternoon in school, even if it wasn't a required day. Today's activity is a mix of history, science, engineering, and psychology: given all the information and technology available at the time, you and your classmates are tasked with devising alternative plans to colonise the Moon, as they called it then. You spend the afternoon diving into the key questions your own ancestors had faced: What kind of future did humans have on Earth?

"Whoa," you reply. Before you can say anything else, a commotion sounds from ahead.

"Come on, $Friend3." $Friend2 pulls at $F3hisher arm. "Let's just go." You all give in and head back topside, wondering just what the orbits is going on.

No one ever eats alone on Metra. Breakfast is something pre-made with the fam at home.

As it has been for weeks, most chats centre on the lack of news from the mother planet. You dig in to your dinner, wondering if it seems a little light this evening. Before you can ask, a brief electronic //beep// signals an [[announcement|tRations Cuts]].

The familiar voice of Rhiannon, a <<if $Gen2 isnot "visited">><<link "Gen1">> <<script>> Dialog.setup("Gens", "info"); Dialog.wiki(Story.get("Gens").processText()); Dialog.open(); <</script>> <<set $Gen2 to "visited">> <</link>><<else>><<print "Gen1">><</if>> senator, bursts through the cafeteria bubble, as well as a couple of outdated com-IDs nearby, giving her a strangely mechanic echo. The hubbub fades. "Attention, everyone. As many of you are aware, we are having some communications difficulties with our contacts on Earth." "Not just our contacts," you hear a Gen3 nearby mutter. "//All// of the old planet is dead." Rhiannon continues over them. "In light of these issues, the Senate has agreed on a cautious course, should supply shipments be disrupted. We are temporarily decreasing energy and nutrition allotments-" "You've already cut allotments to 75 per cent!" This shout comes from one of $Friend1's parents. More shouts, grumbling.

You don't know who started numbering the gens like this, but at some point it stuck. Gen1 are the pioneers: the first settlers on Earth's Moon, building a settlement they came to call Metra. They were 500 persons, carefully selected from all around the Earth for their intelligence, hardiness, health, and resilience. The early days were treacherous; only 50 per cent of them lived to form families. When they did, they created Gen2. They also created a lot of rules: no more than one replacement child per parent. All Metrans rotated through all work stations <<silently>><<set $onarCt to 0>><</silently>><<link '<span class="guide" id="onar">on a regular basis</span>'>> <<if $onarCt == 0>> <<replace '#onar'>>every few months<</replace>> <<set $onarCt += 1>> <<elseif $onarCt == 1>> <<replace '#onar'>>on a regular basis<</replace>> <<set $onarCt -= 1>> <</if>> <</link>> for the sake of <<silently>><<set $reduCt to 0>><</silently>><<link '<span class="guide" id="redu">redundancy</span>'>> <<if $reduCt == 0>> <<replace '#redu'>>having back-ups<</replace>> <<set $reduCt += 1>> <<elseif $reduCt == 1>> <<replace '#redu'>>redundancy<</replace>> <<set $reduCt -= 1>> <</if>> <</link>>; if a disaster hits, everyone needs to know how to do all essential jobs, just in case. They formed a Senate as a representative republic. They made the Metra that you know as home. Gen2 are your parents. They were born on Metra, but they were raised on Gen1's tales of Earth. They believe in Earth; they call it home, even though they've never set foot on it. They moved Metra from the safety of the Deeps to the somewhat bigger skies of the surface: you're all still under protective bubbles, but at least you can see the stars. And Earth. You are Gen3. You call Metra home. To you, Earth is a fairy tale. What you will be is yet to be seen. It lies in the decisions you make, the actions you take.

By the time you and $Friend2 make it to $Friend3's pod, things are already kicking off. You hear voices inside, so you go in without signalling. "Grandma, you have to know about the shuttle. I saw your records." $Friend3 is facing off with $F3hisher grandmother - Saanvi, a Gen1 Senate member - in the communal area. Her jaw is clenched, her arms crossed. $Friend1 nods at you and $Friend2. "They have pics," $F1heshe say<<if $F1Pronoun isnot "they/them">><<print "s">><</if>>. Saanvi waves a finger at all of you. "We're trying to save you. To save all of us. You never knew Earth. Colors. Sunlight. Breezes and mountains and animals and streams and beaches and leaves falling in autumn." "But if all that is dead-" $Friend1 starts. "We don't know that," Saanvi snaps. "We're going back. All of us." "Not in that little shuttle," you comment. "What if it's really dead, Gran?" $Friend3 pleads. "What if we run through all our resources, and we get there, and it's <<silently>><<set $irraCt to 0>><</silently>>\ <<link '<span class="guide" id="irra">irradiated</span>'>> <<if $irraCt == 0>> <<replace '#irra'>>been nuked<</replace>> <<audio 'irra' play>> <<set $irraCt += 1>> <<elseif $irraCt == 1>> <<replace '#irra'>>irradiated<</replace>> <<set $irraCt -= 1>> <</if>> <</link>>? Or the air's no good?" "It's not up to you." Saanvi's com-ID flashes, and she checks it. "And you'll keep whatever you know to yourself. We don't need a bunch of children sending all of Metra into a riot." Dropping the last word, Saanvi stomps out. You all look at each other. "Well," you say. "We either <<link "take the risk of bringing down the Senate">> <<set $F3HouseOL to "end1-activist">> <<set $ending to "end1-activist">> <<goto [[tEnding1 Activist]]>> <</link>> or we <<link "do what we can to make Metra as efficient as possible">> <<set $F3HouseOL to "end2-ecowarrior">> <<set $ending to "end2-ecowarrior">> <<goto [[tEnding2 Ecowarrior]]>> <</link>>, so that when their expedition fails, Metra can survive."

Saanvi escorts you to <<if $DeepsDesc isnot "visited">><<link "the Deeps">> <<script>> Dialog.setup("Deeps", "info"); Dialog.wiki(Story.get("DeepsDesc").processText()); Dialog.open(); <</script>> <<set $DeepsDesc to "visited">> <</link>><<else>><<print "the Deeps">><</if>>, in a solo-port, no less. Apparently //she's// not worried about rations. You follow her down a series of corridors in the oldest, least-used portion of the Deeps. And there she shows you their secret. It's in a massive room near the surface - well, given what they're building, it would need to have access to the surface. They must have used an old mining pit, covering it with a false roof to make it appear from Metra's surface like undisturbed moondust. A shuttle. It's not very big - not as big as the shuttles that come from Earth - but it's big enough. You can see why they've been shifting Gen3s away from Engineering rotations; in a regular work rotation, you'd definitely figure out that supplies were being shunted somewhere unusual, if you didn't stumble on the shuttle bay full stop. "Why?" you ask her. "Earth's dead." "Maybe." She shrugs. "Or maybe just the people are. And then we can go //home//." Earth has never been "home" to you; you were born on Metra, after all. But you still love its legends, its stories, its legacy. //<<if $Earth2 isnot "visited">><<link "Earth 2.0">><<script>> Dialog.setup("Earth 2.0", "info"); Dialog.wiki(Story.get("Earth2.0").processText()); Dialog.open(); <</script>><<set $Earth2 to "visited">><</link>><<else>><<print "Earth 2.0">><</if>>// is full of flashbacks to its earlier, lush, healthy days: mountains and streams and animals and fresh air and birdsong and warm sunshine on skin. "So what'll it be?" Saanvi asks. "Are you going to <<link "blab this all over">><<set $confrontSenMem to "public">><<goto [[tPublic2]]>><</link>> or are you going to <<link "help us get back to Earth">><<set $confrontSenMem to "end6-villain">><<set $ending to "end6-villain">><<goto [[tEnding6 Villain]]>><</link>>, and maybe be one of the first to go home?"

You snap a pic of the shuttle with your com-ID. Before Saanvi can protest, you send it out on general coms. "You're not as smart as you think you are, $NickName," she says through gritted teeth. "This could tear the entire settlement apart." "Which is why it shouldn't be a secret," you tell her. "It might be time to <<link "bring Gen3 to the Senate">> <<set $public2OL to "end1-activist">> <<set $ending to "end1-activist">> <<goto [[tEnding1 Activist]]>> <</link>>.

//''First, remember you can ONLY create Twine games in Safari on iPads! Otherwise, you won't be able to save them, and you will be sad!''// When you "Publish to File" on an iPad, it asks you to save the "Unknown" zip file. Save it anywhere you like, just make sure you remember where you saved it, such as in the "Word" folder. Then when you need to upload it to the submission screen here, you'll select that same location (e.g., "Word") and the "Unknown.zip" file to submit.

Depending on what tablet you're using, you may or may not be able to save and use images and sound files. If you find you cannot, then you'll want to use only external media files hosted online somewhere (see the tutorial for information). When you "Publish to File" on your tablet, you may not be given the option to rename your file - it may simply be an "Unknown" zip file. This is fine - just note where it is saved. Often, your tablet's internet browser will simply save it to your "Downloads" folder. Then when you need to upload it to the submission screen here, you'll select that same location (e.g., "Downloads") and the "Unknown.zip" (or the game's name, if that option is open to you) file to submit.

Through three workshops delivered in class, we educate the children about the role of carbon dioxide in climate change and the carbon dioxide emissions associated with everyday activities. Through discussing and creating their own works of fiction, we will also encourage the children to explore their ideas about climate change and the role that individual citizens play in shaping the world’s climate. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of these workshops on young people’s engagement with climate change, and to assess whether their personal feelings about their own responsibilities for their carbon dioxide emissions change over the course of the workshops. In the first workshop, the students discuss the relationship between carbon dioxide and the climate, and they create simple models of molecules such as carbon dioxide, methane, and water. In workshop 2, the children read a work of digital fiction created specifically for this project, and use this work to discuss their thoughts around climate change. In workshop 3, the students produce their own works of digital fiction, allowing them to explore these ideas more deeply. In each workshop, the children complete a short survey to assess their own personal attitudes to climate change. This project is conducted in collaboration with the school by [[Dr Jennifer Rudd at Swansea University|https://www.swansea.ac.uk/staff/j.a.rudd/]], [[Dr Lyle Skains at Bournemouth University|https://staffprofiles.bournemouth.ac.uk/display/lskains]], and [[Dr Helen Ross at Helen's Place|http://helensplace.co.uk]]. Past collaborators on the project have included [[Dr Ruth Horry at Swansea University|https://www.swansea.ac.uk/staff/r.horry/]] and [[Dr David Aldous at Cardiff Metropolitan University|http://www.cardiffmet.ac.uk/schoolofsport/staff/Pages/David-Aldous.aspx]].</div>

There are a couple of ways you might have created a codename. (1) If you created your own codename ONLINE from your school name, your street name, a parent or guardian's name, and your birthday, here is a reminder of what it will be: First 3 letters of your school + first 3 letters of your street name + first 3 letters of a parent or guardian's name + your birthday in DDMM //So if your school is:// Jackson Secondary School //And your address is:// 123 Bechod Lane //And your guardian's name is:// Sharon //And your birthday is:// 10 August //Your codename would be:// ''jacbecsha1008'' (2) If you created your own codename from your address, your mum's name, and your birthday in the //You and CO<sub>2</sub>// Workshop 1, here is a reminder of what it will be: First 3 letters of your street name + first 3 letters of your mother's name + your birthday //So if your address is:// 123 Bechod Lane //And your mother's name is:// Sharon //And your birthday is:// 8 August //Your codename would be:// ''becsha08'' (3) Your teacher might have assigned you one. If that's the case, and you don't remember your codename, ask your teacher.

Nid yw'n gymaint o galedfyd, wedi'r cyfan, dysgu beth sydd ei angen arnoch i wneud Metra - eich cartref, eich byd - y lle gorau posibl i fyw. Wel, ac yn lle //posibl// i fyw.

Rydych chi'n treulio'r lleuad yn archwilio'r prif gwestiynau mae eich cyn-deidiau eich hunain wedi'u hwynebu: Pa fath o ddyfodol oedd gan fodau dynol ar y Ddaear? A ellir gwrthdroi'r dirywiad? A oedd hi'n ddichonadwy sefydlu trefedigaethau yn rhywle arall? Sut gallai cenedlaethau o fodau dynol fyw heb y cylchredau bwyd cymhleth sydd wedi datblygu ar y Ddaear, o gadwyni bwyd planhigion ac anifeiliaid i'r gylchred garbon a ddarparodd yr aer yr oeddynt yn ei anadlu? Erbyn yr amser yr wyt ti'n mynd adref am [[swper|cDinner]], mae gen ti rwystredigaeth gryfach tuag at dy gyndeidiau, dros y diffyg mewnwelediad a gweithredoedd a arweiniodd y cynefin at ddinistr, yn ogystal ag edmygedd newydd am eu dyfeisgarwch a dyfalbarhad i anfon dy nain a'th daid i oroesi a ffynnu ar arwyneb mor ddiffaith â'r Lleuad.

"Rydym ni'n mynd yn ôl. Pob un ohonom." "Dim yn y wennol fach yna," meddi di. "Beth os ydyw wedi marw go iawn, Nain?" pledia $Friend3. "Beth os ydym yn defnyddio ein holl adnoddau, ac rydym ni'n cyrraedd yno, ac mae'r lle'n llewyrchu? Neu fod yr aer yn dda i ddim?" "Dim ti sydd biau'r dewis." Mae com-ID Saanvi yn dechrau fflachio, ac mae hi'n edrych arno. "A byddwch yn cadw popeth yr ydych chi'n ei wybod i chi eich hunain. Dydyn ni ddim angen grŵp o blant yn achosi reiat ym Metra."

A oedd, mae'n debyg, yn dechrau am 0800. Mae pobl wedi mynd i weiddi a dadlau - yn amlwg, roedd y rhan fwyaf wedi defnyddio eu dognau caffein prin i aros yn flin drwy'r nos. Cymerant ychydig o sylw ohonot wrth i ti wthio dy ffordd i flaen y ciw. Rwyt ti'n blino ar ddisgwyl am ddistawrwydd er mwyn i ti ddal sylw pawb. Yn hytrach, rwyt ti'n rhannu'r lluniau a dynaist yn y Deeps neithiwr ar fwletin cyffredinol Metra. Distawa'r sŵn wrth i bobl ddechrau gwirio eu dyfeisiau com-ID. Rwyt ti'n sefyll ar fainc ac yn gweiddi. "Maen nhw'n wir. Mi dynnais i nhw neithiwr yn y Deeps. Mae Gen1 yn casglu ynni a chyflenwadau i adeiladu gwennol." "Mae hyn wedi mynd yn ddigon pell." Daw Rhiannon, a thri aelod Gen1 arall o'r Senedd wrth ei hochr, i sefyll o dy flaen. "Nid oes yr un strwythur yn cael ei adeiladu nad ydyw'n rhan o gynlluniau cyhoeddus Metra.

Mae rhai yn codi'u hysgwyddau, ond does neb yn cadarnhau dy ddatganiad. Cama Rhiannon yn ei blaen. "Mae Xin Li yng Nghyfathrebiadau yn dweud wrthym ei fod yn broblem dechnegol yn sgil gweithgaredd solar diweddar. Mae'r holl boeni hyn yn ddi-bwrpas. Mi fyddwn ni'n ôl i'r arfer cyn ychydig ddyddiau.

Ac roedd y Ddaear wedi dweud wrth y Senedd na fyddai mwy o gyflenwadau yn cyrraedd. Byth. Pam eu bod wedi cadw hyn yn gyfrinach?

Rwyt ti'n meddwl am dy ffrindiau dosbarth, dy ffrindiau a dy frawd a chwaer. Yn wahanol i Gen1, doeddech chi erioed yn nabod y Ddaear; doedd gennych ddim rheswm heblaw am chwedlau a hanes i fod eisiau mynd yn ôl i blaned y gwnaethant ladd beth bynnag. Mae Gen2 yn ymddiried yn eu rhieni - maent wastad wedi ymddiried ynddynt - i wneud beth sy'n iawn i Metra. Mae'n haws dilyn pawb arall; mae ganddynt ddigon ar eu plât i boeni amdanynt, o ran gwaith a phlant a rhai o bobl hŷn Gen1 i'w gwarchod. Na, Gen3 sy'n gallu gwneud gwahaniaeth. Rwyt ti, Jane, John ac AJ yn cyd-weithio: rydych chi'n casglu tystiolaeth o'r wennol a'r diffyg cyflenwadau. Rydych chi'n amlygu'r rhai hunanofalus yn Gen1 sy'n dinistrio eich cartref. Rydych chi'n pleidleisio iddynt adael y Senedd. Rydych chi'n gweithio //er eu// Senedd nhw. Rydych chi'n gwneud Metra yr anheddiad parhaol yr oedd wastad i fod - nid cell ddal dros dro. Mewn amser, mi fyddwch yn adeiladu llongau gofod - yn yr agored a chyda'r adnoddau cywir - fel gall eich plant a'u plant archwilio'r system solar ar gyfer anheddiadau newydd. Nid chi roddodd Metra yn y sefyllfa hon. Ond mi fyddwch chi'n gadael. [[Chwarae eto?|cTransport][$replay += 1]] [[Gorffen y gêm|cHomePg]]

Rwyt ti, $Friend1, $Friend2, ac $Friend3 yn gwneud addewid: chi yw'r genhedlaeth newydd o ecolegwyr, cadwraethwyr. Rydych chi'n dweud eich dweud pan fo eraill yn gwneud penderfyniadau niweidiol, boed nhw'n fawr neu'n fach. Pan fyddwch yn dewis eich swyddi, rydych yn ymdrechu am arloesedd, yn chwilio am ffyrdd i wneud Metra yn fwy effeithlon o ran bwyd, trafnidiaeth a defnyddio ynni. Rydych chi am wneud Gen3 yn genhedlaeth sy'n newid pethau. Er gwell ac er y dyfodol. [[Chwarae eto?|cTransport][$replay += 1]] [[Gorffen y gêm|cHomePg]]

Yn wahanol i'r Ddaear, nid oes gan y Lleuad atmosffer, ac felly nid oes ganddo haen ddiogelwch rhag ymbelydredd, fflachiau solar, na gweddillion y gofod. Dewisodd y rhai cyntaf i setlo ar y Lleuad ddechrau eu hanheddiadau dan ddaear, yn y rhwydwaith o geudyllau a phyllau a gerfwyd gan weithrediadau cloddio hen genedlaethau. Pan symudodd cenhedlaeth eich rhieni Metra i'r arwyneb, cafodd y Deeps eu cyfnewid yn bennaf yn storfeydd, a baeau Peirianneg ac Amaethyddiaeth. Roedd rhannau helaeth ohonynt wedi'u gadael yn gyfan gwbl.

Nid wyt ti'n gwybod pwy ddechreuodd rifo'r gens fel hyn, ond ar un adeg mi sticiodd. Gen1 yw'r arloeswyr: y rhai cyntaf i setlo ar Leuad y Ddaear, gan adeiladu anheddiad y daethant i'w alw'n Metra. 500 ohonynt oedd yno, wedi'u dewis yn ofalus ledled y byd am eu clyfrwch, cryfder, iechyd, a gwytnwch. Roedd y dyddiau cyntaf yn hynod galed; dim ond 50 y cant ohonynt a oroesodd i fagu teuluoedd. Pan wnaethant hynny, creasant Gen2. Creasant nifer o reolau hefyd: dim mwy nag un plentyn i gymryd lle plentyn arall. Roedd holl drigolion Metra yn cylchdroi eu gwaith yn rheolaidd, er budd colli gwaith; os yw trychineb yn digwydd, mae angen i bawb wybod sut i wneud y swyddi hanfodol, rhag ofn. Bu iddynt ffurfio Senedd fel gweriniaeth gynrychiadol. Gwnaethant y Metra yr ydych chi'n ei wybod yn gartref. Gen2 yw dy rieni. Cawsant eu geni ar Metra, ond fe'u magwyd ar straeon Gen1 o'r Ddaear. Maen nhw'n credu yn y Ddaear; maen nhw'n ei alw'n gartref, er nad ydynt erioed wedi bod yno. Symudasant Metra o ddiogelwch y Deeps i awyr ehangach yr arwyneb: rydych chi gyd yn dal i fod dan swigod o ddiogelwch, ond o leiaf y gallwch weld y sêr. A'r Ddaear. Gen3 wyt ti. Rwyt ti'n galw Metra yn adref. I ti, mae'r Ddaear yn stori dylwyth teg. Mae'r hyn a fyddi di eisoes i'w benderfynu. Mae wedi'i osod yn y penderfyniadau y byddwch yn eu gwneud, y camau gweithredu y byddwch yn eu cymryd.
