On The Fringe, Part One: Alexander Bruce’s Antichamber

On The Fringe is a two-part series from freelance contributor Danielle Riendeau that focuses on games designed to push beyond established boundaries in the video game industry.
No matter what the video game industry would have you believe, games don’t all fit into neat, simple categories. They aren’t all cinematic action masterpieces of the AAA realm, quirky indie puzzle-platformers or minimalist exercises in rhythm.

In reality, there is a teeming ecosystem of games out there, with creators who are just as interested in what games can be – both mechanically and thematically – as what they have been in the past. They see boundaries and their first instinct is to push or subvert, rather than color within the established lines, and these folks are doing some of the craziest things that the medium has ever seen.

Alexander Bruce, creator of Antichamber, is one such developer.
