The Electronic Literature Lab mentions that unlike Storyspace, Hypergate has no loading screen and instead takes readers to the “cover.” This is labeled as one post of two regarding this topic media/bernstein-sweeney-election-social-media-ell-04.png plain 2021-06-15T11:55:08-07:00

It is further explained that this convention stopped when Storyspace expanded to Windows and then disappeared when it was migrated to the CD-ROM format.
