About

A TIME TRAVELLER'S GUIDE TO PAST DELICACIES This game as been made for the first edition of Fantasia Malware Presents, an event showcasing games and performances in Berlin. It has been conceived to be played live in front of an audience. As such, the full video embedded here might provide a better experience. But for those who prefer to play the game themselves it can also be downloaded for free. It's perfectly playable and shouldn't have any major bugs - although it might be a bit rough around the edges. --------------------------------------------------------------- CONTROLS Mouse + Mouse Left Button Some scenes use WASD + Arrows + Mouse Right Button --------------------------------------------------------------- ABOUT Food has always been deeply enmeshed with the abuses of colonialism. In "A Time Traveller's Guide To Past Delicacies" I try to examine the exploitation of historic food cultures through the perspective of a fictional time traveler, raiding the past to steal recipes. In many respects, the creation of this game was a way for me to explore the crimes of my ancestors. Behind its rather silly appearance, it is also my attempt to listen more closely to the wails of those unnamed ghosts that haunt our plates. --------------------------------------------------------------- CREDITS Music by Outlands, Joseph Villiermet and Halberball Poster design by Alpha Rats Produced by Fantasia Malware
