The ID Project

May 20th 2025:

Made in 10 days for the 2025 Pixel Game Jam, with the theme "From the Dead":

Dana started working as an Evaluation Gateway Operator aboard the space station known as The ID.

Follow the documentation and cross-reference the answers to evaluate the people in the machine.

The heavy decisions are in your hands.

Note - July 8th 2025:

"Wow, part of me hasn't fully processed this yet, but this is the winning entry in three categories at the end of the PGJ (Overall Winner, Best Innovation, Beginner's Best).

When the event began, and for the full 10 days during it, I set out to work on the project for as long as I could every day, and work as hard as I could. I just never expected it to be received this well.

Thank you to the organizers for nominating the project and thank you to everyone who participated in the vote for the winners, and congratulations to the winners in the other three categories.

I want to take this opportunity to emphasize on one point, I have read and listened to all your feedback and I will continue to work hard on this project. This is only the beginning.

Thank you."
