Griptape Backbone is a relaxing meditative first-person vaporwave skateboarding game that discusses topics such as sexuality, religion, and existentialist literature. The game uses liminal mechanics to blend both the real world and virtual together through notes left on your actual desktop to websites and an interface that already knows your name.
Steven Harmon is an independent game developer and artist from Denver, CO and student at USC’s School of Cinematic Arts. In his spare time Steven volunteers at GaymerX, a queer gaming non-profit and studies video game toilets.
