SMALL VOID is a cooperative two-player “call and response” game exploring the limits of language, attachment theory and cosmic annihilation. The game’s mechanics are inspired by the paradoxes of black holes and quantum entanglement, and conceived in dialog with theoretical physicists at CERN. The game’s world, meanwhile, is inspired by the aliens beneath our feet—lichens—and the macro-micro, one-many, inside-outside, and living- dead confusion that their very existence instates. SMALL VOID is also a queer dating sim about the frictions and expansions of identity that love induces, breakdowns of communication, and the ways a world, as an active agent or player, transforms all beings who move through it.
The game is developed in collaboration with Jonathan Coryn, scored by Madga Drozd, features a custom typeface by Daytona Mess, and was produced with the support of Vincent Moulinet. SMALL VOID was developed through Arts at CERN’s Collide residency programme in partnership with Copenhagen Contemporary
