We've been working on an Alternate Reality Game #ARG about @ucsc @UCSCGame history for a while now, and we conducted some playtests this quarter. This game will measure students' **coping** and **resilience**. A publication is on the way.

I was answering some comments on my Dying Light 2 review on TikTok and someone asked why does every game have to be accessible to everyone. I was kinda proud of how I answered it, so I wanted to share it here. It's not the perfect 100% answer, but I think this sums it up well.
