The game is online! This was a very interesting week-end.

YOGO SUBMARINES

I hope you’ll find the game interesting. The sounds are a bit harsh (especially when you listen to them for 3 days like I just did). I’ve been considering several options : musical instrument, notes, spoken words.. Words are boring (too easy to recognize). Musical notes (where you have to identify pitch or instrument) won’t be manageable for everybody. The best solution I found was to use artificial sounds that do not exist outside of the game, and they also need to be very different from each other.

In its ideal version this game would generate new sounds at the beginning of each game.
The 4 sounds generated would always be beautiful, smooth, soft, and they would be very different from each other.

I also tried this Chronolapse thing but I often forgot to turn it on when working ! So I’ll have a partial timelapse to publish. I guess it will still be a nice souvenir.

I think “Sharing earphones” have a lot more potential than tiny cute submarine games. I plan to re-use this idea in interactive fiction, twine poetry, and all kind of artistry and general weirdness.
