M Lupetti@mlupetti.upandpunch.red · 3w agoLast Friday, on the Konsigli segment of Radiotelevisione svizzera’s Kappa, I talked about The Zium Railway. Since 2017, @theziumsociety.itch.io has been inviting digital artists into increasingly ambitious digital galleries. Podcast online!

Thank you, Jacob. You were, and are, an invaluable collaborator. In many ways, Jacob single handedly build the entire overworld. In many ways, and also literally. Thank you again, Jacob. Pleasure, honour.
Jacob Potterfield@jpotterfield.bsky.social · last mo.It’s a truly incredible crop of collaborators this year, and I feel very grateful to have contributed some environment work to glue things together. Thanks again and always to Michael @theziumsociety.itch.io for the latitude to run with this odd, beautiful idea for a virtual gallery space.
The Zium Railway is out! My piece, "Aqualung Caverns", is one of the 10 pieces featured. This is an excellent installment of the Zium, and @jpotterfield.bsky.social did an incredible job with the overworld design. Go play it!

The Zium Railway announced - an interactive virtual art gallery game, where you traverse an open-world via foot or train to view various interactive installations. I love what Zium projects do with the artful medium of games. ❤️ Launches September 13: theziumsociety.itch.io
Last November, I created a small interactive piece called 'A Beating Heart' for The Zium Railway. An interactive experience in which your proximity affects the heart. Excited to see it released soon!
