I Wish I Were the Moon
I Wish I Were the Moon An artgame about a love triangle inspired by Italo Calvino. I shipped the first version of this game in 2008 and it helped put my work on the eyes of a lot of people and allowed me to have a career in game development. Since that time, artgames have grown in size, ambition and willingness to explore all sorts of subjects, but this game was part of the initial movement that helped put artgames in the minds of press, players and other developers. So I decided to honor it by making a version that works on current tech and adjusted to my current design sensibilities. - Daniel PS: If you are one of those people who did play it back in the day, thank you again!
