I have a new game! And it is out now:
Drift Mine Satellite is a maintenance text adventure about a person living underground in a limestone mine, and their work on the local communication network that has sprung up there.
It is a utopian apocalypse fantasy, a forever-camping world narrowed to linear miles of RVs parked under a mountain, the people who live in them, and the systems that interconnect them, both social and material.

Drift Mine Satellite was commissioned for the Sun Thinking exhibition on Solar Protocol, a network of solar powered servers that connects from whatever server is in the most sunshine. It is programmed for the browser, with low-energy use and computational power front of mind. The entire story is told via spatialized text - no images, no libraries, just divs and textboxes and basic javascript. I truly hope you enjoy playing it.
