LA Game Space: Experimental Game Pack 01

Moby ID: 189115

Description

LA Game Space: Experimental Game Pack 01 is a compilation of experimental games not available standalone. The games were created for a Kickstarter crowd funding campaign launched in November 2012 to support the establishment of LA Game Space, a nonprofit center for video game art, design, and research based in Los Angeles, USA that eventually never had a physical venue when the organization closed down in 2018. Backers pledging $15 or more eventually received the pack, described by the creators of the campaign as an experimental game and prototype pack with 30 original games from indie game makers, media/net artists, authors, filmmakers, architects, and comic creators! The initially released version contained 21 games. Not every included title supports all three platforms. A week after the release, the pack was also made available independently for a fixed donation at gamepacks.net for a limited time. The games are:

  • Alphabet
