Jogo Joia

A game within a game, Cartas de Coisas (Cards of Things) invites players to wager on a gacha simulator to win cards representing animals, games, cultural icons, and literary figures. These cards contribute to your Fighting Power, a resource essential for facing and hunting down hordes of aliens within the Liturgy. Each opened Gate reveals a new epistle—fragmented stories that unveil the creation of every layer of the game's universe.

On its official page, Cards of Things (Cartas de Coisas) describes itself this way:

"There is a game called Cards of Things, which some people believe can replace the weariness of life with a terrible feeling known as Agony.
Of course, you don't want to live in Agony: just stay away from these cards.
After all, you should be working.
You like your job.
Staring at the wall.
You don't need the torment of Agony."

Everest Pipkin

A maintenance text adventure about a person living underground in a limestone mine and their work maintaining the local communication network that has sprung up there.

Stemming from a (real!) visit to a decommissioned limestone mine that is now used to house RVs and boats over the winter (and a subsequent phone notification, under several hundred feet of rock, that the space station was visible overhead), Drift Mine Satellite imagines what a post-apocalyptic community life might look like among sleeping vacation vehicles. It is a utopian apocalypse fantasy, a forever-camping world narrowed to linear miles of RVs parked under a mountain, the people who live in them, and the systems that interconnect them, both social and material.

The game was commissioned for Solar Protocol, a network of solar powered servers that connects from whatever server is in the most sunshine. It is programmed for the browser, with low-energy use and computational power front of mind. The entire story is told via spatialized text - no images, no libraries, just divs and textboxes and basic javascript.

PETA

National Institutes of Health (NIH) experimenter Elisabeth Murray has spent the last 30 years cutting open monkeys’ skulls, suctioning out or burning portions of their brains to cause permanent damage, and locking them in cages, where she shows them large rubber snakes and spiders, terrifying them. These horrific experiments haven’t advanced human health at all, of course—they’ve only tormented and killed animals and wasted precious medical resources.

This cruelty is why 16-year-old Archit Kumar of Dublin, California, is on a mission to end speciesism, and he’s developed a video game called Monkey Fright to help accomplish that. The game brings awareness to the constant suffering and deprivation that these monkeys experience inside small, barren cages in windowless laboratories—day in and day out—where they’re denied companionship, sunshine, fresh air, exercise, and everything else they care about.

Monkey Fright

A game about the nature of dead things and the living and the still-dead languages of both for those who may be alive. But whom everyone else will see as dead or an animal.

The enigma of the fields. Unknow a shape.

Consider the idea of a black storehouse in a yellow field. Charred walls. Painted walls. Walls smudged in black ash.
Maybe consider an unreal crop.
Or consider, observe, establish, evaluate an above-ground pool. Which would be an odd find, right here in the middle of a field, but then again, that structure in the middle distance has got to be something...

An absurd, alienating game developed as part of the Briefs series, a gold extra project with additional support by Strange Scaffold.
