A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

A collection of very short experimental games, not made to be necessarily entertaining. Playable in 5 minutes.


The Collector wants to show you something. 

Enter his digital museum of three 'Virtual Encounters', each deemed equally unworthy of the term 'game' in their own way:

'Trolley Problem', 'Jam the Keys', 'Catch'.

If you like playing games more than filling out forms, hitting the follow button is also much appreciated!

Why was this made?

As a game design student, I felt increasingly boxed in by conventional game design rules. I felt that in the still novel medium "games", way more interesting experiences could be created if we broke free from these constraints. So I set out to create something truly unique. A collection of unconventional games, not bound by what is generally accepted to be a game and what isn't.

Aren't you tired of win screens, scorekeeping and clear-cut objectives? Why are we still seeing the same game design principles reused over and over again, just in different fonts?

Oops, now this itch page has turned into a pretentious rant. Just play the game already.
