We know you. You're OBSESSED with Rotborough, you sick freak. Us too. You probably sit there, wishing you could actually live in Rotborough. Well, seeing as its been wiped from (almost) the entirety of the world's collective memory, that's not possible. We have come up with something almost as good, though. Introducing the Rotborough Web Portal!
So what's new? (or old?) Let's get into it. We've spent the last 3 months gathering and scrounging around, and what we found was... a lot - a bag of miscellaneous items, some t-shirts, a crate, some CDs - but what we found that's most important for this moment was some old floppies (no, we're not talking about the elderly!) Within these old floppy disks (and random hard drives) we found the source codes for a handful of websites of the businesses and people of Rotborough! Below you'll find previews of just a few of the 10+ sites we're launching with. We have taken painstaking care to make sure that these sites are available to you and fully functional - taking painstaking steps to reverse engineer their cool interactive elements just for you!
Sometimes, you have to turn back time to realize how good you have it now. Or, conversely, to see just wrong things went. With the Time Machine feature, you'll be able to effortlessly hop between different archived dates of many of the sites on the web portal. Time travelling is fun - just be careful. If you're not paying attention, you might just find yourself somewhere completely unexpected.
We plan to keep growing the Rotborough Web Portal as we unearth more content - we're working on fixing up new sites and pages as we speak. Here's the thing of it though, slick. Restoring these websites requires time, server power, lots and lots of gigabits...? (honestly, when our IT team explained this to me, my eyes starting glazing over and I tuned them out, but I promise there's some real technical nerdy reason we can't just upload it all now.) WE'RE WORKING ON IT! HONEST! Anyways, below are 2 websites currently being restored. You'll get both eventually, but we can only upload one for now - and I wanna get your opinion! 'Cuz I like ya a lot :). We found Luke LaChance's old web diary, (Aww!) and Testicular Torsion's website! (Badass!) Now we want to leave the choice up to you! Which one would you like to see in the first official patch, let's say in about a week from now? Vote below! Make sure you come back tomorrow… The final update will be SO HUGE IT'S SCARY!
