Cyanotype Maker

A cyanotype is a type of photographic artwork made using light-sensitive paper. Objects are placed on top of the treated paper and exposed to UV light, such as sunlight. The areas exposed to light turn a deep blue, while the parts covered by the objects stay light, creating a shadow-like image.

Controls:

• Click and drag elements onto the paper.

• Rotate an object while holding it using the “A” and “D” keys.

• Press the arrow in the bottom right corner to process your cyanotype.

This game is the creative part of my application for NCSU's 2026 Design Camp. The button on the home page contains the answers to my application questions (complete with pictures of real cyanotypes I've made ;)). If you’re not here from Design Camp, feel free to explore the tab and get to know me! And if you are part of the Design Camp application team, hello :)
