A better world is possible.
Utopias: Navigating Without Coordinates is a project by the international art collective, AAA. While we all worked on each others Utopias extensively, my main contribution is A Phase Locked Planet, an earth-like exoplanet where one side is perpetually night and other is perpetually day. I collaborated mainly with Nick Morrison, who did the sound design and helped with the over all concept. I did the art, writing and programming.
This project was fully self organized by AAA, and not affiliated with any other organization.
For more information about the whole project Utopias: Navigating Without Coordinates, please see the AAA collective website: https://utopias.aaasoftwa.re/ where there are many other Utopias to be discovered.
For concept notes about A Phase Lock Planet, please see my blog post about it: https://aaasoftwa.re/aaa003-utopias-spotlight-jessica/

I just played this recently and it’s been on my mind since. It’s an amazing surrealist experience that’s just beautifully polished. I love their work for how it gives me the feeling of both resenting games but also embracing them. If you haven’t checked it out yet, you should! https://t.co/qYBnHDoJKL

9 discrete "experiences" connected via a hub world — easily one of the year's most formally inventive, visually adventurous games with a genuinely jaw-dropping climax. I love it. Drink in the game page (https://t.co/IKOJnikkSY) and marvel at these screens. pic.twitter.com/M5As0ZliQK

Utopia: navigating without coordinates by @AAA_software_ - I enjoyed getting lost in these 9 worlds ranging from sci-fi walking sims to post-internet playthings. Bold project, many unforgettable moments.

Easter won't be boring this year: on Sunday the @AAA_software_ collective will release #UTOPIAS: Navigating Without Coordinates! It is an awesome #videogame network of nine worlds - each one a personal utopia developed by a one of their members
