Find her -------------------------------------------------------------- FindingHerOS is a WebOs where you have to "her", a girl named Stacy. Inspired by games like Simulacra and Sarah is Missing, you have to dig through Stacy's computer to find out when, how, and why she disappeared.
This project was vetted by Shipwrights and is now up for voting. You can ship again after making more updates.

Cool project, works as expected

“Find her” - Mystery detective game made for the WebOS mission
Hiiiiiii. Just as the title says, this is the last devlog (before I ship). After I ship it and move on to WebOS 2, the true mystery elements will be implemented :D!
Diary app overhaul!
- The diary app now actually has content in it
- Currently only has 1 entry in it (more will be added in the future though!)
Calculator app
- a cute, pink calculator for any of your math endeavors
Paint app
- Small paint app. Complete with a color picker, brush size, clear canvas button, and fill canvas button
After ship
Until next time!!

“Find her” - Mystery detective game made for the WebOS mission
Hiii, it’s been a while. So I took a break from this project cause I didn’t really enjoy working on it. I ended up making a whole different project, (“Productive”, go check it out!) just to distance myself from this project. Anyways, I finally decided to finish this project 😛.
New background
- It’ll probably change in the future, but I’m happy with it for right now (tho I’ll need to make it darker cause it’s too bright)
New color scheme
- Pink, and pink, and pink, and a dash of red
New app!
- Stacy’s diary/notes
- It’ll be finished by the next devlog!
Organized my code/added comments + notes
Soooo, the reason I stopped working on this project was because I could get the windows to come to the top when clicked. I didn’t really understand what the guide was explained so I was just stuck.
A few days ago I stumbled upon @Mokila ‘s WebOS (which is super cool it’s called “EpochOS” if you wanna check it out!). I checked out their code and decided to try out their z-index code to see if it would work for me, and it did!!!
Thank you Mokila for your awesome project, you’re goated. You’re literally the reason why I feel motivated to continue working on this project!!!!
I want to ship this project so I can move onto WebOS 2 and begin writing and working on the actual mystery aspect.
I’m going to make 2 apps and make some aesthetic/visual changes before shipping
I’m so happy to be returning to this project

.
This devlog is moreso to document the before of the website before I add the wallpaper and include right colors scheme.
My first app is going to be a notes app/diary app that includes all of Stacy’s thoughts/feelings and hints on how to complete the mystery.
.
What I’ve done so far:
-Added a top bar with working timer
-Added instructions pages (will be longer in the future)
.
Coding this has been a struggle, but I’m enjoying the process so far.
Anyways, have a good day!

FindingHerOS 1
After a lot of struggling, I managed to make the instruction window draggable. After I make one or two apps, I’m going to focus on the aesthetics of the WebOs.

Finding HerOS 1
FindingHerOS is about you, the player, going through your old classmate’s, Stacy’s, computer to uncover the secrets behind her disappearance.
Backstory: I always found these type of puzzle/mystery games interesting (ex. Sarah is Missing, Simulacra, Scrutinized). So instead of making a portfolio style WebOs, I decided to make a mystery puzzle game!
The OS only has the welcome screen, background, and time bar so far. It’s taking me a while since this is my first time coding, so I’m taking it step-by-step.
Future apps/mechanics:
A notes app- Full of Stacy’s ideas, feelings, etc.
A working gmail app
A social media app- similar to Insta
A video app with (hopefully) working videos
A files app
And more!
