Inspired by the plague (aka “Black Death”) that wiped out nearly half of Europe’s population in the 1300s, descent.exe explores a world descending into darkness in the form of a desktop application. Check out the video recording of descent.exe running alongside programmer Mark Fingerhut’s deepdesktop.exe above or (if you’re a PC user) download it here and try it out for yourself! Visuals by Peter Burr. Music by Forma.
