Today, I shared with patrons the Diplomat's Land. Figuring an end to the game, a sense that everything you have found or accomplished is leading you somewhere, is a great inquiry for us.

Huizinga argued in Homo Ludens that the very foundations of law, art, and ritual emerge from playful acts, where rules and imagination combine to shape meaning. To him, play wasn’t a distraction from culture, but the generative force at its core.

I want the game to feel like a road trip through the Arctic, but also like flipping through the scrapbook of someone who collected every fragment they could. Some elements literally pop up.

The “Astronomy Level” in our indie game Race for the Arctic is created in collaboration with a scientist from Eureka Weather Station, one of the northern most research bases on Earth. The notice board in the game is designed by him!

Our game begins with the last letter that The Diplomat wrote 💌 This is the only time she speaks directly to players.

Happy International Womens Day.

The main character in our game the Diplomat writes in one letter: The Arctic doesn’t need saving. What it needs is to be heard.

I realised she says this as a woman. Because as women, we only need to be heard.

I am writing our main character in the game: the Diplomat.
She is a political envoy who takes on her own journey to discover the untold stories in the Arctic.
💡What should I play / read / watch / as inspiration & references?
