During my time at BAF2015 not a lot of stuff stood out (mainly due to the fact I was finding it hard to concentrate… but some animations and talks stood out. One such animation was a really unusual one by the name of “Plug and Play” by Michael Frel. And is a award winning short film (yet until DAF I never saw nor heard of it,,,) the animation is simple but odd, really odd.
then on the 5th Mar 15 (steam) 23rd April (Google), and 2nd may (Apple) a 5-10 minute long interactive narrative game was released. Michale Frel had planned to make it into a game, but the idea was sped up buy the unfortunate realisation that people weren’t watching the full animation, instead they were simply jumping back and forth along the timeline (me including). Although the animation and the game jumps around its own internal non-linier timeline the game forses the player to interact and preform the..um deeds the game calls apron. Several Youtubers Lets players have done played the game, and their reactions were the same as the audience at BAF.. “What the hell is this?.. “ “oh god tell me it,,,AHH it is!”… a game or animation, whatever it is, its weird and funny at the same time.
the game can be vied from the following link, with sub links to the game in its respective digital storts (Google, Itunes and Steam)
