Quing's Quest VII
Dietrich Squinkifer’s (aka Squinky) Quing’s Quest VII: The Death of Videogames was created for Ruin Jam 2014, a game jam inspired by tensions over the identity of games and gamers and particularly responding to accusations that feminists and advocates for diversity in games had set out to “ruin” the games industry. Quing’s Quest is built in Twine and takes inspiration from old-school adventure games, including Sierra’s King’s Quest series. The game takes place on a craft called the “Social Justice Warrior” (after a commonly-used pejorative term for those who point out misogyny, racism, transphobia and many other forms of discrimination and hatred online and in gaming culture), and features a character exiled from Videogames after the invasion of the “misogynerds.” This work captures the tension of a historical moment in which only some voices, games and critiques are heard and others are silenced and dismissed.

Tatuaje
Tatuaje is a born-digital short story, created in a lab carried out at Centro de Cultura Digital in Mexico City. The development, design, writing, and programming of this transmedial short story is thanks to a great team of writers, illustrators, designers, and engineers. Tatuaje is a work designed specifically for digital platforms, interweaving myths emerged and disseminated on the Web. The design refers to 90s web design, a graphic aesthetic only present on the Internet. The work itself turns the media into its own language.
