Screenshot Saturday: The Trust Game (Patreon)

At last! Here's the very first preview of my next explorable explanation – on the game theory of trust!

[If you can't see the above/below GIF, here's a link]

It'll be an adaptation of Robert Axelrod's landmark book The Evolution of Cooperation. I love this book so much, not just for its groundbreaking work in game theory, but because it shows – mathematically – how even in the worst of circumstances, goodness will still triumph over evil, at least in the long run.

Expect a Patreon-exclusive playable prototype in two weeks!

Other shtuff:

• HOLY CRAP this Patreon just met passed its first goal: $1,337 a month! Thank you all so much. There's a crying emoji and a joy emoji, but no crying-with-joy emoji, so please accept this ASCII emoticon instead: (;‿;)
• Two days ago I spontaneously made a comic that explained confirmation bias, changing minds, and educational psychology... with jigsaw puzzles! It somehow got 900+ retweets(?!) So, I thought I'd share it here too in case you missed it! 
• Stiiiiiiiill gonna get around to implementing pan/zoom in LOOPY.
