This is a net art piece loosely based on my early experiences on the internet, which mostly consisted of watching other people play games on YouTube. Some of my favorite gameplays were of Undertale and Life is Strange -- any game that allowed the player to make choices that affected the trajectory of the game really appealed to me (the more existential and weird, the better). This game is inspired by the text-based choice games of the early internet, as well as one game in particular called Fatum Betula. Lone Star was made with VSCode and is hosted through Github. There is no real “purpose” to this game -- just to have a conversation with a mysterious creature.
