Hey there,
Have you ever come across a book or a story that leaves you in awe and wonder? Well, that's exactly what happened to me when I stumbled upon "The Circular Ruins" by Jorge Luis Borges - a masterpiece of surrealism or magic surrealism, which, in my opinion, is underrated.
As an Art student, I was so fascinated by this story that I decided to make it my final project this term. So, I built a Visual Novel for it with artworks inspired by Tarot cards and Medieval illustrations. Although it's my first-time coding (yeah, spaghetti code lol), I tried my best to make it simple and easy to navigate. All you need to do is click and go through the game.
While reading the original story, I couldn't help but feel chills down my spine. So, in my game, I expanded on it and created 5 different endings, each with a symbol and a deeper meaning behind it. It was a challenging yet exciting project, and I'm proud of what I've accomplished.
Let's take a moment to appreciate the beauty and power of Surrealism. Who are we, really? What is our purpose? These are the questions that I hope my project will inspire you to ponder upon.
Have a good one,
Twee (thuy)
