When Worlds Collide
Humanities Core: Worldbuilding 2022 - 2023
About Me:
Hi! My name is Odalys Vasquez-Lopez, and I am a Game Design and Interactive Media Major!
I love it when creators take concepts from separate environments and write their own versions of it (or just straight up make a whole new series!), so my archive will be based off of that theme.
This idea came to me because I was recently reminded how much I love how Rick Riordan combines mythology with the modern world in his stories, and it's from his stories that got me started onto the pathway that I am on right now!
Like seriously the GRIP this series had on me as a kid

What If....
If we lived in a simulation controlled by robots? What if the world's biggest conspiracies were intentionally fabricated for us? What if there's a whole different realm from our own?
These are some examples of just how many different directions worldbuilding can take. Here are some of my favorite (that I can remember right now at least):
