Credits Posted for I Love Bees

Posted by Zonk on from the that's-zapper-weisman-for-sr-fans dept.

Ryan Barrett writes "Credits have been posted for the I Love Bees alternate reality game. As many suspected, its puppetmasters included Sean Stewart, Jordan Weisman, and Elan Lee, who created the game The Beast for the movie AI. Many of the principle members of Cloudmakers also participated, one of whom was the voice of Melissa. Sean, Jordan, and Elan have founded a company, 4orty2wo Entertainment, to continue producing ARGs. I don't know about you, but I'm very excited."

    That is one nasty web page. It is made to LOOK like an unclosable cross between a popup add and an error message covers most of the material. Fortunately, the web page itself is killable.

    1) An ARG, as defined on Unfiction, is "A genre of interactive fiction using multiple delivery and communications media." Basically it's an adventure game that is not limited to being on a computer screen.

    2) No. But that doesn't mean it can't be fun to experience (and it was).
