# Halfstreet
|
|
|
|
A gothic text adventure. Second person, present tense, sparse — never explains.
|
|
|
|
Style anchors: Le Fanu's *Carmilla*, Shirley Jackson's *The Haunting of Hill House*, M.R. James's ghost stories.
|
|
|
|
Played at [halfstreet.io](https://halfstreet.io).
|
|

|
## Stack
|
|
|
|
- [Astro](https://astro.build) static site
|
|
- TypeScript engine — pure (no DOM, `Date`, `Math.random`, or console)
|
|
- World content authored in markdown (rooms, items, encounters, endings) under `src/world/`
|
|
- [Vitest](https://vitest.dev) for tests
|
|
|
|
