“I have a longing for life, and I go on living in spite of logic. Though I may not believe in the order of the universe, yet I love the sticky little leaves as they open in spring. I love the blue sky, I love some people, whom one loves sometimes without knowing why. I love some great deeds done by men, though I’ve long ceased perhaps to have faith in them, yet from old habit one’s heart prizes them. I love the sticky leaves in spring, the blue sky — that’s all it is. It’s not a matter of intellect or logic, it’s loving with one’s inside, with one’s stomach.”

— Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov (via freelance-philosopher)

a quiet life- no! I will live my life loudly! I will hug my friends and press flowers, complement strangers, feel my feet in the dirt! I will savour the smell of rain, decorate a space that's mine, and dance and sing and buy people gifts! I will leave this world with the love I have given it!!

this ancient image has been in my phone for god knows how long

honestly true

this is actually so cool oh my god!! played it through and just-- idek what to say it's such a nuanced and interesting take on the narrative, and all the inclusions of different figures in Greek myths

plus the artstyle is a) awesome, b) perfect for the tone

and the dialogue is so characterised and witty and smart

tldr I absolutely love this

I MADE A GAME! it's a short little walkaround adaptation of Sophocles' Antigone, set in a dying apartment tower, with a whole host of characters who you may or may not recognize. Music, art, and writing all by me - you can play it here, either in-browser or downloadable (although I've been informed that if you download it, the fonts may not function correctly).

It may receive updates in future - I made it in about a month for a class assignment, so I didn't have time to include everything I wanted to, and the music is all taken from various other projects of mine - so stay tuned for whenever that happens! For now, enjoy a 30-40 minute game with a single, inevitable conclusion. And do let me know what you think.
