Work with your partner(s) on this part!

**Remember: DO NOT CHECK IN BROKEN CODE EVER!**

Always get the simplest version running first. Afterwards, have your partner FORK the project, so they have a running version of it for themselves.

===== Design Challenge: Interactive Fiction (Team) =====

  * Your interactive fiction (IF) must be loosely about the history of computers
    * Look up some dates or key figures on Google. I'm the user and I want to learn something!
  * Feel free to include dinosaurs, pirates, ninjas, or any fantasy/sci-fi elements
  * There is no limit on levels of absurdity, but I must learn something about computer history
  * Please try to make or find your own art, if you have time.
  * Extra Bonus: If you can figure out how to add more slides to the IF (look at the index.html)

If you finish early, or would like to work on something else, feel free to fork the 2048 game and try to make your own version of it!
