The Mariana Sequence

Hello future participant in The Mariana Sequence Project. In this exciting new opportunity you will be running software developed by Apeks Technologies in an isolated environment to ensure proper data collection. Start the software by recording your name, and then every action and decision you make while running the software will be recorded and sent to Apeks Technologies Headquarters for review. You’re very important to Apeks and we appreciate your participation in The Mariana Sequence Project. Thank you, and good luck!

As a participant in The Mariana Sequence Project, you will be running software, a platforming game, in an attempt to discover the proper sequence in which the game should be played. In the game you will come across many choices, some obvious some not, that affect your sequence. The game will often change in reflection to the sequence as well (such as monsters, level variation, etc) . The game is meant to be played over and over, playing differently each time to discover different results!
