I’ve been thinking a lot about game design lately. What’s embedded above doesn’t reflect any of that, except my desire to start creating games.
On the recommendation of this video, I found this program, which enables non-programmers like myself to build simple games.
This game, entitled The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, is about inevitability. You, playing the orange hexagon that represents our melancholy prince, must choose whether or not to confront the spinning purple triangle of fate. But ultimately, do you really have a choice? Or is it better to sleep, perchance… to dream?
Actually, it’s not about anything. It’s just a little test game I made. But didn’t the above make it sound kind of important?
//EDIT: Weird quirk — apparently GameSalad’s embedding iframe script isn’t that great. If you want to play the game, looks like you need to go to the main page of my blog (just click “Smrvl” up top) and then click within the game. I’ll sort this out for future game postings.
