As I lay dying

A short experience inspired from reading the scifi short story by Ted Chiang, Exhalation. 

What and Why

The original story depicts a world that is running out of air and would eventually collapse. Ted Chiang's work inspired me to think about determinism. I tried to emerce myself in this world and imagined what my life would be like. 

I made this game to capture the feeling of 'meeting the end'. I would say that it is a bittersweet experience :)

Control 

You can use any key to type out the already written story, record your memory before the end of the world. I think that's what I would like to do before the end of everything~

And as always, Escape key for escaping .... 

 

Credits

The game is originally made for a game jam I hosted with my friends. 

We all made games interpreting the same short stroy. We had fun!
