Xenopoiesis: An Interactive Future History

Cover Image by Luc Schuiten

In a previous piece, I announced my first foray into the interactive fiction genre known as the ‘quest’, as practiced on the Sufficient Velocity web forum. Well, for the past few months, I have been working on another narrative in this same format: Xenopoiesis.

This is a story of social development in the 22nd century, where the international bureaucracy of the United Nations is tasked with overseeing humanity’s road to anarchy and abundance. Unfortunately, the free nations of the world are not themselves free to pursue this mission, as both the ongoing destruction of the environment and a coalition of fascistic ‘essentialists’ threaten them at every turn.

If you are interested in guiding the course of this narrative, I’d encourage you to partake in it by following this link. Your contributions will be much appreciated!
