abandoned museum of abandon:
games ideas best left behind
Made during Museum of Screens' very special BITSY FEST (bitsy jam #77) in October 2023. Happy 7th birthday, Bitsy!
The theme for the jam was, surprise: "museum". I followed this theme and made a mausoleum in Bitsy that's been masking as a museum to memorialize a total of 10 game and simulator ideas from 2020-2022 that I have since abandoned - something I know devs of all stripes and experience can relate to. I love that Museum of Screens is doing stuff like this in their work to preserve browser game history at large.
Hallowe'en is coming up soon so expect some chills.
CONTROLS:
