The Exegesis of John the Martyr was an experimental ergodic text about ghosts, loneliness and the instability of narrative. It was designed in a custom engine using assets from and inspired by Hotline Miami, and represented an attempt at exploring the potential of the Hotline Miami visual style as a medium for alternative experiences and genres.
