Absurd Games

A thesis I've written for my MA in Game Development and Research at Cologne Game Lab. It takes you on a journey to figure out what is an Absurd game and how one can go about making it. This journey starts with the Theatre of Absurd and ends with flowstration.

Theory file contains research and practice contains loose development logs for I Am Groot, A Single Bug, YWDA, and Baby Labor. All four games are available on my itch page and there are links in the file. The thesis is available in both PDF and EPUB format 

It feels appropriate that the thesis that birthed these games is uploaded near them.

Also, my friend said he'll buy me a horse if any of you, good people, donate some cash. I wanna collect that horse. Update: I was made aware it's not a real horse.
