The Trumpeter

A simple game about a complex topic.

Can hardly call this a game, tho. It's more like an experience. Go around, talk to people, and see the story unfold.

Recent events inspired me to think "what would push someone to do this?", without falling into the ever so tired justification of irrationality, craziness, and bad apple allegories. I read a little about radicalization (pretty interesting!) and ended up creating this step-by-step rendering of a person who most likely doesn't exist, but if he does, he probably was present during the recent riot on the US capitol.

Certainly, we live in interesting times.

First time using the bitsy engine. Interesting way to craft small ideas.
