Claim of Innocence

Claim of Innocence (Pseudo Game Jam Entry)

This proof of concept was written for First Person Scholar’s Pseudo Game Jam, which was a text-based-only game jam. Participants had one month to submit a game written as a procedural poem (written descriptions of the processes and procedures that make up a game) that addresses the theme.

It is a one-player social survival game where you are accused of something you didn’t do. The game simulates the bureaucratic labyrinth, the emotional toll, and the permanent shadow that follows even when you “win.”
