This is a document of an artwork in progress, a handbuilt clay sculpture with conductive elements to act as a game cabinet for a future haptic game. I was influenced by arcade history and representations of robots in my research, and by uses of conductive materials by queer and trans* game designers.
This was the proof of concept that a pot could be turned into a video game controller. The game needs work, but it is playable by holding a pot!
Part of my exploration of personal trans* game design in Twine
The first video game I published, made for Divination Jam but never submitted. I did get the chance to go to the Dire Jank show though!
Personal game design inspired by A Woman Goes to a Private Games Industry Party by Rosa Carbo-Mascarell, using Bitsy
