Signups are open for Strandfall, an orienteering larp inspired by Stalker and Death Stranding! Set five years after a mysterious disaster unleashes deadly storms, players join a risky expedition to deploy "spatial computers" and put humanity back on its feet. Edinburgh / September 5th / *Free*

More on Strandfall, the solarpunk orienteering larp I'm making with @x13n.com! Some fun new photos and UI mockups in here, plus I'm trying out a new thing with the "solarpunk" angle, which sounds better and more descriptive than "low tech" or "retro-tech".

Learn about the fictional (but fully functional) "McNair-Feldman Device" at the heart of Strandfall's technical design! @x13n.com details the components and in-larp capabilities of our long-range, low powered devices packed with an ePaper display, GPS, accelerometer, magnetometer, and more!

I am really excited to be working on this!

I’m prototyping a location-based multiplayer orienteering game with my friend Alex Macmillan, and today was our first field test of the custom hardware he’s built! Our units contain long range (LoRa) radios, GPS, IMUs, with a ePaper displays. The idea is that they can work anywhere.
