Micro Seeker
Maker Faire Bay Area 2026
September 25th-27th
Players take on the role of assistants to the Archivist (a character from the Scratch Disk group exhibition) in a three-player cooperative "Where's Waldo"-style puzzle. Using viewport devices that create the illusion of zooming into old pieces of technology, players explore hidden 3D digital worlds inside these devices. Each player controls their view with handheld knobs, working together to search for three specific digital components the Archivist needs. Once all components are found, they are "3D printed" and collected for the Archivist, advancing the larger Scratch Disk puzzle and reinforcing the game's theme of uncovering valuable objects hidden within old technology.
Mirco Seekers
The “mirco seekers” of the micro seeker project are three SJSU students and members of the CADRE club. Aron is a graduate of the digital media art program, Alex is a current digital media art student, and Sean is a current art and design student. Together they specialize in illustration, modeling, and game design.
