Welcome to File Loading! 

An interactive story where you, the readers, can decide what path the main character, Elliot, goes down. Will you get a good ending? Will you get a bad ending? Will Elliot find a lover? What about an enemy? All this is according to your choices throughout the story.

The process is pretty simple, at the end of some chapters there will be a few choices that you folks need to choose. 
(I've decided to not make all the chapters to be decision-driven so we can have a flowing story! thank you for understanding ^-^)

Each choice is made by the majority vote in the comments section! 
If there's ever a tie in the votes, then I (the author) will be the tiebreaker via random generator-kun.

Tasks

Each world will have a Main Task that Elliot needs to complete in order to move on from the world. Your choices affect if and how the Main Task will be completed.

If the Main Task is completed, then there may be a reward for the next world. But if the Main Task is incomplete or if Elliot dies prematurely, then there may be a punishment in the next world he transfers to. So be careful!

There might be some Side Tasks or rather side quests within each world. If they pop up, then they're just there to help, but they aren't necessary to complete the Main Task...usually.

Hints

In the story, Elliot is given 3 hints at the beginning which you may choose to use by majority vote in the comments section.

Hints are good to use if you aren't sure which direction this story is leading towards. If you want to use a hint, comment - hint - along with the choice you want Elliot to make (hints aren't a choice, but a type of guide). This hint will be given in the next update.

Example:

Comment: [the choice you want for the MC to make] and use hint.

Next Update Example:

Elliot could hear the man's footsteps creep closer...he had to think fast, or he would be made into minced meat!

[Comment below! :D] Note: You have used one of your hints, you now have 2/3 hints left in this world!

>Try to Find the Hidden room in the study
(hint: survival chance low; possible encounter chance; possible relationship decrease)

>The Greenhouse, Deeper in the Garden.
(hint: survival chance medium; possible relationship increase)

>Try to Escape the Estate.
(hint: Survival chance high; possible relationship decrease/increase)

fin.

I believe that is all for now, please remember to be kind to each other in the comments and have fun with this story. If you have any questions or suggestions then feel free to leave them in the comments down below!
