About the Project

Sensei’s Comments

This project began as a way to get students to consider how different media could be used for promotion. We had studied how media work to create stories, but I wanted them to think about how the choice of media used by businesses also creates stories. In this case, I wanted students to think about how something like a game could tell stories about the COB — not just the story in the game itself, but also what kinds of stories could be told about the COB because it made a game.

And so, the COB Visual Novel was developed.
