[untitled games event] #2 recap

That was so much fun. To everyone who came by last Sunday, thank you for being there, being part of it, participating, and conjuring [untitled games event] #2. So much went wonderfully. 

Can't wait to see you all again on Sunday 22 March.

A group of people cluster around a TV in an expanding ring of couches and benches. Some at the back are standing, and listening to a speaker in a plum shirt and orange wine pants.

As always, we’ll haunt your inbox two weeks before show date with all the details.

If you’d like us to haunt your timeline as well, you can follow us on Instagram and Bluesky. If you have any feedback, we would really, truly appreciate hearing from you.

Recommendations from edition #2

  • Our friends at Sickhouse Enschede, who were the primary inspiration for [untitled games event], are reopening their space with a suitably sick two-day party on February 27-28. Entry is free with RSVP!

  • The Game Poems magazine, mentioned by Thijs and featured in [uge] edition #1, is now accepting submissions for game poems! They’re great, highly recommend. Register your intent to submit by May 1.

  • Procuring Estrogen For Your Toxic Slime Girlfriend, a fever dream RPG masterpiece made with the WareWare engine

  • Hussein Shikha’s beautiful videogame-inspired carpets: he made the title screen for Plum Road Tea Dream!

  • Hyperbolica, a “non-Euclidian” adventure with mind-bending maps.

  • Mouthwashing, 2024’s smash-hit horror game surprise. It’s very good, but every single content/trigger warning applies.

  • LSD Dream Emulator, a late-90s Playstation 1 cult classic and OG experimental game. There is now an English fan translation.

  • Fatum Betula: “Placed in a world without change, you must create fate by watering an ancient plant. Determine a future and live with it.”

  • Monster Garden: "A short and sweet game about inner and outer exploration and making friends." Also delightfully weird monsters.

  • The Black Trans Archive: An interactive archive which decides how much access to grant you, based on your self-declared identity.

Thank you to everyone who left recs and notes. This will be a regular feature of future editions.

Until next time,
