Emily is Away <3 is a narrative game played through a fictional early-2010s social network interface. You're a high school senior managing a Facebook-style profile—picking photos, writing status updates, and messaging friends. The story unfolds through chat conversations and timeline interactions where your dialogue choices shape relationships and determine how your final year plays out. It's less about gameplay systems and more about capturing that specific era of oversharing, relationship status drama, and curating your online persona. The interface mimics period-accurate social media down to the pokes and wall posts. If you remember refreshing your feed between classes or agonizing over profile picture crops, this recreates that digital social landscape with a branching story attached.
