I've long wanted to make an adaptation of Edwin Abbott Abbott's short story Flatland (1884) in interactive form, and Bitsy3D appeared to offer a simple, and fun way to do just that. I've made this newly released piece over a series of coffee-breaks, and while it is very far from perfect, I think it works about as well as the constraints of the platform can deliver. If time and inclination arise, I might add a couple of extra features, as I have done with some of my other Bitsy projects. For now, however, it is "done enough"!
I've enjoyed making varied literary adaptations using Bitsy, and I think there's at-least a couple more I wouldn't mind making. All the same, far more pressing projects are presently knocking at my door.
Flatland is now available on itch.io via https://racarter.itch.io/flatland.
