The above GIF: the intro screen of my upcoming interactive, about the game theory of cooperation and trust! (can't see the GIF? here's a link)
A Patreon-exclusive prototype should be out in a couple weeks, and the full game should be out sometime next month. Then again, that's also what I said two weeks ago. Once more I am reminded of Hofstadter's Law:
Hofstadter's Law: It always takes longer than you expect, even when you take into account Hofstadter's Law.
. . .
Anyway, in the meantime, I'm going to get a headstart on the backer rewards! Last week I sent out an email to the $10+/month supporters, asking if they'd like to get custom-drawn as a Peep. If you're a $10+/month supporter, and didn't get this email, please email me at n@ncase.me with a reference photo/description of you/the character you'd like me to draw!
I say it every time, but that's coz I mean it every time: thank you all so, so much for your support and encouragement. It's you who give me the time, space, and autonomy to explore lots of creative directions – whether that's a cute simulation of segregation, a tragicomic story about news cycles, a tool to play with feedback loops... or, next, an interactive guide to the game theory of trust.
