What’s Past Cooper Point? is an alternate reality game designed as part of Spring 2025 Speculative Worldbuilding for Social Change, a class taught through Evergreen State College. The students developed and lived in the game over the course of ten weeks, writing in-world narratives along collective timelines, designing game modules to overcome problems, and playing through each others’ modules in-character.
