As an extension of my previous project “Portrait Against Perception,” I created a mini puzzle game “userID” to explore the futility of getting to know one’s “true” selves, due to the constant flux of one’s identity. This piece is also my critique against the Internet’s normalisation of privacy invasions.

Programmed in Processing 3.5.4, “userID” is downloadable on itch.io and playable on Windows and MacOS.
