A list of interactive fiction short stories and small games I have written.
coming soon
muse: an interactive fiction story
You haven't written so much as an outline in almost a year. Tonight, that's going to change whether you write a word or not.
A goofy bit of metafiction that I wrote to break my writer's block. Started as a prototype in Racket in January 2026, is slowly becoming an interactive fiction story in JavaScript. Will post screenshots soon.
planned
the video game that eats people(working title) - a text-based adventure game about a young video game streamer who has to save his friend from a game that figuratively (and maybe literally) consumes him. Player's personality determines the fate of the protagonist's friend.
a living machine - an interactive fiction story following a reclusive former computer scientist and the young mathematics prodigy he takes on as a ward in a post-Collapse society. Player's personality determines what path the young prodigy's future takes
ghost hardware - an interactive fiction story where the player controls Fidel, an android living in 2037. He's assigned to assist an FBI agent in infiltrating an organ harvesting ring. Optional personal backstory side quest. Optional relationship mechanics with the FBI agent. Based on a character from a short story I wrote years ago.
AMOR FATI - the project that is going to destroy my sanity. I'll likely write more about this as I get closer to tackling it. This one is going to require me to draw pixel art and frame it as a visual novel with combat and strategy elements, and I probably won't get to it until at least 2027.
