This application I am building is part of a new upcoming help/reference/tutorial website I have been trying to set up for sometime now. The website it is being set up for is an on-line game. This part of the game is open during Halloween.

Usually the user can only see a 6x11 Map at a singular time. I have gone through the entire Hallow Town and got the map so they can know where everything is, zoom out to view a larger map or see it at the normal view size.

This version of Hallow town as been available for, I think either 3 or 4 years now. Each year there are more missions to complete. If they have set settings to show the mission points on the map shown, they'll be able to go through and see the missions and gain help and know where exactly they need to go on certain tiles and whatnot. There'll be a checklist whereas if they've done the mission, they check it and it turns green. If they click on a mission then chec one of the tasks inside the mission, then that one will show up as orange. All unstarted missions will show up as red.

There are also hotspots for finding checks and being able to unlock them. These will be another feature they are able to disable, for those who do not want to see any spoilers so to speak.

On the actually games Hallow Town, there is a chat as well, this is shown where I have the tabs content and the users are shown where my tab menu is, however this is unique per tile, of which I think is stupid and hope to either have a chat elsewhere on the page or one under a tab for anyone on the website to talk about the Halloween event.

This will also be used as a template for the Christmas Town event they have as well.
