Zoe Quinn Talks Project Tingler and Moving On: VICE Gaming Meets

In 2014, Zoe Quinn was targeted by members of the gaming community after a jilted ex wrote a blog post suggesting that she received favorable coverage for her indie game Depression Quest after sleeping with a gaming journalist. Zoe was subjected to a coordinated campaign of harassment, doxing, and violent threats, that eventually spread to target other women in the gaming industry, and male gamers and developers who defended them. In the first episode of VICE Gaming Meets, Zoe Quinn reflects on #Gamergate and outlines her new game "Chuck Tingle Dating Simulator", a throw-back to the full motion video game technique of the late 80’s. In her experimental version of FMV, Zoe is creating an alternate reality in gaming in which “interactive cinema” with its garish low-budget aesthetics and bad acting is a legitimate art form.
