you are a writer

Become a modern day writer in this short form typing incremental game. Write words to make money, find new ways to write more words, and find new ways to make more money.

accomplishments

Warp Door Feature. The game was featured on Warp Door. Warp Door curates a collection of strange and unique games and digital ephemera from all across the web.

Top Rated. On release (and still) you are a writer was on the "New and Popular" and "Top Rated" lists for incremental and typing games.

my contributions

Text Generation. Created a text generator using a Markov chain and a corpus made entirely of text written by me.

Narrative x Progression. Tuned the progression of the game's mechanics to organically unfold the narrative arc of the nameless writer protagonist (you).

notes from me

you are a writer was the start of my desire to enmesh narrative and systems design and also the start of my obsession with typing games (which would later continue with WORK).
