The Bootstrap Protocol was my senior capstone project. It is a hybrid tabletop video game, my senior capstone project. Players join AEON Inc., led by the immortal deity Doctor Ouroboros, whose goal is to explore and document the multiverse. However, having achieved this, the Doctor assigns players their final mission: to end the multiverse and discover what lies beyond. As players travel through diverse universes, they collect magical artifacts and creature powers. The game combines physical elements like game boards and cards with a digital program for immersive interactions. It delves into life, reality, and the critique of capitalism and colonialism through a tale filled with mythological characters and settings
