![]() If you’re still in the process of outlining your book, Scrivener has a “corkboard” that lets you move virtual “index cards” around.

If you’re already using it, and it’s working for you, great. That said, there’s a lot of hype around Scrivener, which is a word processor. You don’t need special software to write a book.

And even though you couldn’t pay me to ride a bike to work, and I don’t keep track of my credit card balance because it’s too much of a hassle, I’ll gladly push a button and grab the red orbs. This is a menial task for your distraction. Which button doesn’t matter––as long as it isn’t the R key, which restarts the level, or a key that is tied to system functions––as if to emphasize the point that you’re not doing anything. You press the button when the game tells you to press the button and you let go of it when it tells you to let go of it. The hole-hopping formula is as banal as it is hypnotic. ![]() The effect gives the sensation that you are being sucked into the blackness of your monitor, through the chips and transistors and all the firing parts, down to the level of 01110000011. Only now, the path funnels you forward, toward a vanishing point at the center of the screen, amid intergalactic scaffolding engraved in Tron-like vectors. While this may sound like an exercise in quantum physics, it plays out exactly how you’d think it would-like any other game where you can’t stop running. I imagine hamsters exiting the wheel have similar thoughts to someone who has played Fotonica: What have I been doing for the past 30 minutes?įotonica is preoccupied with the problem of running, sometimes endlessly, in the third dimension. I’d go so far as to compare this wireframe runner to tangible things: a hamster wheel, for instance, or a can opener without the usefulness. Something like, a chemical cocktail of Canabalt, Mirror’s Edge, and a virtual-reality cave.
