| dc.description | This is from a series of experimental video games exploring religious actions. As an atheist who nevertheless feels religion to be a part of my life, I choose certain rituals, activities or mental games that people play to reinforce their faith and attempt to simulate them through game mechanics. I begin with verbs such as “Baptize” and with these attempt to create game mechanics that express feelings associated with those verbs, because the essential expressive power of a game is through the repetitive performance of an action. | en_US |
