Dark theme made default per me burning out my retinas every time I opened a story. Just had to change 2 css rules and write a javascript function to change the inline styling I did for the info box thing cause I'm way too lazy to change like 4 individual html pages, so why not write a single function to do the work for me? :)
And that also causes an unintentional white flash around the box when the page loads but it can pass as an animation effect I guess
April 2020
Alpha version of site released.
