This is my second entry into the alphabet superset challenge by Struthless. So far so good. The theme for this entry was "Beyond the veil", which I also adopted as the title of the game. You can play it here: Beyond the veil.
I had a rough idea of what I wanted to do, and I started hacking away in Pico-8, but I reconsidered - I'm extra tired this week, and I knew that I wouldn't have anything sensible at the end of the week if I did it this way. So I decided to go with Bitsy again. The nice thing about Bitsy is that you can hack something together even if all you have is fifteen minutes, and not a second more. And boy, was that the right decision, the second I started the project in Bitsy it somehow "clicked" and made sense. It was the perfect tool for the job. So I won't be surprised if at the end of this whole endeavor I've got 26 small Bitsy adventures to my name. Is that enough to become a celebrity in the Bitsy world? I guess we'll see.
I'm pretty happy with what I've accomplished, it's based off one of my favorite tropes in science fiction, as well as one of the craziest philosophical arguments that makes sense if you think about it. I'm deliberately avoiding saying anything more in order not to spoil it. So go ahead and try it!
