The use of literal voids in the bookmark to direct the player with just enough guidance to help them build a story into the fruitful void you've left? Brilliant design.
Nice use of art, too. A real challenge with such limited space.
How awesome is the gamejam trophy/emblem on the front page? It’s super fun and cute, and you can use it to flaunt your gamejam participation. Just download it and stick it on your project page or your profile page. You can choose the size that fits you best.
I just played Headcanon, a print & play, bookmark-sized, solo RPG by M. Allen Hall1. It was a blast! The game is simple but clever, and it lets you create your own stories using a bookmark and a coin. You can choose from different genres, themes, and characters, and then flip the coin to see what happens next. The game is very creative and fun, and it makes you use your imagination a lot. I really enjoyed playing it and seeing where my headcanon took me.
Thank you, M. Allen Hall, for making this awesome game and submitting it to the Bookmark Microgame-jam 20231. You are very talented and I hope you make more games like this in the future. I highly recommend Headcanon to anyone who likes solo RPGs and storytelling. It’s a great way to pass the time and have some fun.
