The City is as Stars
This is about viewing other people and places in the real world around us with the same wonder and awe we do with stars and possible alien peoples on them. An actual game I would play by myself while in a thoughtful mood, walking back to my dorm room at night in college. A slow, one-player thoughtgame written as an act of automatic writing for the Libre Baskerville Jam.
