Step into the shoes of an artist and visit a vibrant queer bar in this semi-autobiographical game. Players are provided with a safe space to engage in conversation, listen to other queer people’s experiences, and express themselves through sketching and avatar customisation. The personal stories shared by characters are inspired by Kelly’s own experiences and those of the people she’s met. Kelly, having animated, written, and programmed this game, is a multi-disciplinary artist passionate about both interactive and print media. She is particularly interested in the untapped genre of autobiographical games, which she has an in-depth understanding of after writing her dissertation on the topic.
