Adem Akome Afane (born January 28, 2000), also known as plut0, is a queer French video game designer and zine author.
Adem was born at Le Blanc-Mesnil and moved to Montpellier to study Game Design in 2024. He completed his master’s degree with a research around queer romance in games.
Adem worked mostly as a narrative designer on different projects. His works revolve mostly around queer people and their use of public and private spaces.
Apart from his work in various studios, he released the first chapter of Insomnie, his first full-length solo game in 2031.
In 2024, Adem started a collaborative zine with friends called l’Uzine de l’Absurde[1]. They have explored various subjects since then, focusing on enabling new people to get into zine making. Following this project, some members from the collective and other zine makers created an online community on Discord. The main goal was to share resources and their love for zine making. Together, they managed to organize multiple events around zines and DIY culture in many french cities.
Adem also worked on many solo zines, mostly perzine and an ongoing series about his OCs.
Dreamscape is a life long project, started with the creation of the first character Billie, in 2014. Dreamscape is a universe revolving around dreams. It was declined in various media such as video games, zines and small animations.
Adem has been working on many different projects along the years. He often refers as himself as a jack of all trades and has been described as restless by many of his friends.
