You didn't pick the body. What happens next is up to you.
There are four things here. One of them you can play right now.
Body swaps, in the order they were made. One idea, one picture, no explanation.
What you do after you wake up — that's the real story.
No machine to reverse it, no lab to break into, no cure. You can't undo it, so you have to live with it.
Most body-swap stories are either light fun with nothing at stake, or too serious to enjoy. These try to be both.
Stay who you were, or become the new person. Every story here splits the same way, and both choices cost you something.
One you can play today. Two more have their own pages. Under those are a few of the stories being planned — they have artwork and nothing else so far.
The only finished thing here. Episode One runs in your browser: three routes, eighteen endings, and a body that remembers things you don't.
Play Episode One →A villain's swap-ray misfires, and a nobody wakes up on live TV behind the city's favourite mask. The villain knows. Nobody else does.
See the game →In one silent second, most of humanity trades bodies at random. No cause is ever found.
All 21 entries →Two strangers, one lamppost, one storm. The oldest swap story, told straight.
The nerd and the football captain fall down the same stairwell. School life never recovers.
He gave his daughter a kidney. They woke up having swapped much more than that.
Seven more are planned: Neural Drift, The Crown and the Circle, Her Seasons, The Exchange, Second Opinion, Her Champion, and Prism Shift: Fivefold. Coming up with ideas is easy. Writing them is the hard part.
