DEATH TO VENICE by lichene, laughingpineapple, McKid
Come die in the sinking city and negotiate your dream
itch.io

part of the BRIEFS 2024 DEATH COLLECTION free bundle

Take part in a collective rite of putrefaction. The world is dying, and you with it. Venice - frail, alien, abandoned - welcomes you in your last moments. Experience memories of death in Venice's past through six game poems across the city's sestiere districts: a death of biodiversity, a death of institutions, of community... then ponder your feelings on endings and change, talk it out with the city herself. It's all either of you has left. Venice is dying. This game is for her, and for the Venetians who resist.

  • Experience six different kinds of puzzles-less, frictionless interaction
  • All dialogue choices steer you toward one of three endings
  • Informed by global+hyperlocal social and environmental issues
  • Enriched by more than a hundred photos taken in and around Venice
  • Fullscreen recommended! Optimized for laptops; playable on anything bigger than 1000x550
  • Approximately one hour long
  • CW: terminal illness, death, environmental catastrophe

By far my most ambitious IF piece yet, both in scope and presentation!

#death to venice#videogames#twine game#interactive fiction#if game#my games#The toootally unbiased BRIEFS organizers promoted it as 'possibly the best looking twine game'#so anyway this is what I've been doing all summer

a whole bunch of gazan mutual aid projects and nonprofits. if the decision of which individual fundraiser to give to feels too daunting, or if you just want to help as many people as possible in one go, these are great initiatives to support.

  • care for gaza - focuses on providing food and essential supplies. donate here or here.
  • connecting humanity - securing internet access via donations of virtual sim cards (esims). if you can't afford a whole plan yourself, crips for esims is a communal pool that will use your donation to purchase and maintain esims
  • gaza soup kitchen - provides food, medical care, and classes for children. also has a gofundme
  • glia gaza medical support initiative - provides medical care through field clinics and tents at hospitals. donations can also be sent through their website.
  • ele elna elak - provides clean water, food, clothing, and shelter. they also have a gofundme
  • life for gaza - raising money for the gaza municipality to repair water and waste management infrastructure
  • taawon - partners with local civil organizations to provide food, water, medical care, shelter, and basic supplies
  • the sameer project - running various initiatives providing tents, medical care, and necessities. they have their own encampment project focused on sheltering families with children, sick and disabled members, or members in need of perinatal care
  • islamic relief worldwide's gaza emergency appeal - provides food, water, hygiene kits, medical supplies, and psychological support
  • baitulmaal - provides a variety of necessities, including food, water, shelter, and medical supplies

a friend just tipped me off about Fund a Kitchen in Gaza, a free tool that helps you locate and donate to community kitchens currently serving some of Gaza's most vulnerable!

Fund a Kitchen in Gaza - Humanti Project
Free tool to locate food kitchens across Gaza that are providing and distributing urgently needed meals to hundreds of thousands of people.
Humanti Project

this lets you choose a region (south, central, north) and see which kitchens operate in that area, then donate to as many as you can.

as a reminder, community kitchens try to buy and cook in bulk, which makes ingredients last longer & sustain more people in the conditions of extreme scarcity that Israel is imposing right now. they are also able to serve people on the ground who may not have the means to reach out online.

so, whether through this tool or not, please do support community kitchens, as well as mutual aid groups that cover additional needs, such as the Sameer Project (meals, tents, cash aid, medical aid) and Dahnoun Mutual Aid (meals, tents, baby supplies, cash aid, winter clothes).

SO COOL. It's about having to traverse this labyrinth of a city as you go about your daily Venetian business, with all due satire...
