mimi b4 the end of the world

mimi b4 the end of the world is a narrative game that I created using Bitsy. It was during a time when the news was filled with stories about UFOs, wars, and other chaotic events, making it feel like 'the karma of the world is accelerating'. It seemed like the world was on the brink of ending.
On a personal level, I was going through my own turmoil. I missed my cat, Mimi, who I hadn’t seen in three years due to the pandemic. Additionally, the end of summer was approaching, bringing a sense of panic. I was worried that this would be my last enjoyable summer before I had to join the workforce and succumb to the demands of a capitalist society.
The game takes place in an imaginary abandoned room that Mimi explores – something she would do in real life when I was not around. Through the game, I aimed to capture the unsettling feeling of our times and my deep yearning for home. mimi b4 the end of the world (2023) is a reflection of these emotions, an artistic expression of both the global and personal upheavals I experienced.
