A site `` ThisWebsiteWillSelfdestruct.com '' that self-destructs and disappears forever when message posting is lost appears

Websites that automatically delete

content and uploaded files for security have appeared so far, but a slightly different color from these is `` ThisWebsiteWillSelfdestruct.com (This website will self-destruct) '' That site has appeared. Created to encourage people who are forced to live at home, the site says that it is possible to read messages of various people and post their messages with handwritten fonts and designs. So, I actually went to see it.

This Website Will Self-destruct
https://www.thiswebsitewillselfdestruct.com/

This is where I accessed the above URL. Design from slanting of the original, the top page is 'Hello. I web site. I will disappear immediately, please do not mind. Please send a message using a post box at the bottom If you don't receive a message for 24 hours, I'll self-destruct and my entire database will be erased forever. By then, please tell me how you feel right now. I can read your post, but I can't see your name or ID, so feel free to send me whatever you think. '

Scroll down and click 'Read a message' ...

A countdown of '86,390 seconds left' and a message written by someone were displayed. The message said, 'I'm addicted to

Persona 5 The Royal because of this quarantine life and I've almost cleared it, but I still don't know if this game is interesting or not. It seems like all my friends don't know, but at least this game. It's a fact that everyone can laugh at the quantum state of superimposing an entertaining game and a boring game, 'says a rambling message.

Clicking 'Read a message' will display a random message each time.

You can press the heart button if you like the message, but nothing happens when you press it.

Click the button 'Feeling Down?'

A message was displayed prompting you to contact the American

Federation of Psychiatric Families and the British charity The Mix .

At the bottom of the page there is also a post field where you can write your message.

This site was created by Femme Android, who draws manga online, as part of the Ludum Dare competition, which creates games from scratch with a 48-hour time limit. The theme of the 46th Ludum Dare in which FemmeAndroid participated was 'Keep it alive'.

Femme Android told the IT news site VICE, “At first I was trying to make a game that looked like a game program, but I wanted to create something that would make people feel more comfortable. I felt that some people might need to get words of encouragement or even spit out, so I decided to make something that encourages those people. '

In addition, when 24 hours have passed without actually posting a new message, message deletion will actually begin. Depending on the number of messages recorded in the database, the site seems to be unresponsive for a while and just display an error message when all the messages disappear.
