this is the first video in our time/trip los angeles game that is now finished. during the summer of 2011 this was a video that you could only watch by actually going to Meltdown Comics on Sunset Blvd in Hollywood and scanning a QR code we left there with a mobile device. from there you had to listen for the names of the other locations where the girls went in their search for this lost purse and the crazy device inside. you'd go to the next location and find the QR code that was also hidden there to find out what happened next in the story. it was part Scavenger-hunt, part "Choose Your Own Adventure" and now that it's over, you can still watch the videos in a similar "Choose Your Own Advanture" format by watching this and then just clicking on the next "location" to see what happens next.

this was a kind of social experiment and was a lot of fun for us to put together, but considering the fact that it was a $0 budget project there were a number of different handi-caps. for instance, some of the locations decided to take down their QR codes before the game was over which sadly created complete dead ends in the game for several players (our deepest apologies for that btw). considering we didn't have a penny to spend on this and considering the fact that we shot all nine pieces in just two days, we are actually proud of it and hope you derive at least a modicum of enjoyment from it.

you see, you're now actually free to "play" this little game right from your own computer - the whole thing takes about 20 minutes from beginning to end, and when you're done you can go back and make different choices to see what would have happened differently if you had.
