I'm excited to announce I'm going to be running a four-week remote workshop on creating interactive fiction with #bitsy starting at the end of September! Games created in the workshop will be featured in an exhibition at Accent Sisters in New York, with whom I'm partnering on this project!

Crafting Interactive Fiction with Bitsy. With Anna Anthropy. September 28 to October 19. 4 weeks online workshop, 150 minutes per session.

What if a work of fiction were more like a space – something readers could wander, struggle against, push at the boundaries of?

Digital games let us weave interactivity, spatiality and friction into storytelling.

In this class, we’ll use Adam Le Doux’s Bitsy – a free browser-based game tool – to create interactive narratives. If you love storytelling and want experiment with new tools to tell new kinds of stories, this class is for you.

Beijing Time:
September 28, October 5, October 12, October 19, Sundays, 9:00 - 11:30 AM

New York Time:
September 27, October 4, October 11, October 18, Saturdays, 9:00 - 11:30 PM

Our 150-minute workshops will consist of guided tutorials, artistic discussions and creative exercises.

Over the course of four meetings, participants will write, develop and revise a work of original interactive fiction.

At the end of the class, outstanding projects will have the opportunity to be featured in an exhibition at Accent Sisters in New York.

Anna Anthropy is a game designer, educator and cyborg. Her work, both digital and tabletop, explores themes of queerness, kink and disability. Her most well-known digital games include dys4ia and Lesbian Spider-Queens of Mars; some of her recent tabletop work includes Coldbloods, The Fool's Journey, and the award-winning Forgotten Palaces. Anna is the author of several books on games and game design, including A Game Design Vocabulary, Rise of the Video Game Zinesters, ZZT, and the Make Your Own Video Games! series from No Starch press. She has shown work in the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, and the Museum of the Moving Image in New York. She lives in Chicago with a little black cat named Encyclopedia Frown.

A few of my favorite of our environment shots from Sword of the Sea
Reminder that I'm looking for work as an Environment Artist or 3D Artist 🙂

A screenshot of "Sword of the Sea". The image is of a sandy landscape with statues and flags submerged in sand. In the distance you can see a temple and a large triangular shaped mountain.

A screenshot of "Sword of the Sea". The image is of a temple with red brick, covered in foliage. There is a half pipe in the center.

A screenshot of "Sword of the Sea". The image is of an ethereal blue landscape with floating islands, a ghostly bridge, and a large triangle structure on top of a mountain.

A screenshot of "Sword of the Sea". The image is of two large armored warriors in a frozen landscape. One is buried beneath the snow with only its hand clawing towards the viewer. There is a beam of light coming from one of the warriors eyes.

someone nuked me so hard from orbit when I posted about how hard it was to buy a house - saying I wasn’t talking about Palestine enough - to the point where I never want to post anything about my life again

Something I put together a couple years ago when I was working on multiple different projects that needed feathers

Multiple screenshots of a sphere with feather type shapes simply stuck onto it. There are multiple types of vertex normal projections put onto the feathers showing different methods for smoothing them

I'm releasing a free Asset Pack for Unreal Engine 5. It's a collection of 17 SDF Material Functions that allow you to generate various dynamic shapes at lossless resolutions.
