Hi everyone
I’m a product designer from Ukraine. This is a personal project - an
interactive longread inspired by the game Alan Wake 2.
Live: https://alanwake.fun/
The idea was to translate the game’s core mechanic into a web page.
In the game, darkness hides information and your flashlight reveals it.
So on the site the cursor works as a flashlight: part of the content
is hidden until you point the light at it.
What’s inside:
- Flashlight cursor that reveals hidden text
- Investigation board with pinned notes, red threads and polaroids
- A typewriter-style manuscript form: you ask Alan Wake a question
and get a written answer - Two parallel story lines that overwrite each other on scroll
- Scroll-driven focus transitions (blur / brightness) between cards
Built with Three.js and GSAP.
Would be glad to hear feedback, especially on performance and
on the scroll behaviour.
Note: this is a non-commercial fan project. Alan Wake 2 and all related
assets belong to Remedy Entertainment.
