A good read for me, not only because I think it's really cool that all of you had so many different things to say about game making, but also it gave me a view into the other side I've been curious about, what it's like to make games with others in a situation where that community is a big part of the point. I'm always so hesitant to surrender even a single part of the project I'm making to anybody else. I don't think it's my ego telling me what I have is too good and pure. Rather, for me, it's a concern that if I fail, I'm taking down other people with me. Creating things with other people ought to be my next challenge. Thank you for sharing!

I got ending B, which I really enjoyed. I liked the sort of "they definitely aren't right for each other but now they're stuck with each other" relationship, that felt very real.

Also, I love the detail that one's wearing the uniform pants and the other is wearing the jacket, that was cute!

Loved this, the presentation, worldbuilding, and characters were all really exciting! The end really tugged on my heartstrings too. Oh, Rue.

Also Almond and her sprites are very cute ❤️ 

Amazingly funny concept, gj

Cute comic! I'm going to remember this fun fact next time I'm waiting for a specific suit of a specific card to finish a straight flush...

That Poopy Goopstocking's heart is never going to grow three sizes. She's in it for life and  she's bad to the bone.

I enjoyed the absurd humor quite a lot, gj

Tucking her in nice and cozy because she deserves it. Also the stone statue in the foyer was really cool looking and the pictures in the gallery were very cute! Also I couldn't figure out how to do the secret passage I'm sorry I brute forced the safe like a common criminal

.

I've been HAUNTED! Very cool, your art is amazing as always. This one's my favorite sprite and Portrait of the Witch of Woe was my favorite exhibit 

The worldbuilding, aesthetic, and banter in this are awesome-- the ending was metal and I loved it

VAGUE SPOILERS: That one scene near the end is so uncomfortable but it was also astounding in terms of interrogating these characters. It asks what, short of death, could balance the scales for them? After watching that play out, we under the answer is truly that no amount of revenge fixes any of it. It's truly eye for an eye taken to its logical conclusion. Heart-wrenching!

Thank you! My brother provided me most of these fun facts, couldn't have done it without him

Thank you! It's really fun going game-y in Ren'py though i gotta admit I am also kind of ready to just write for a while too lol

That story was really beautiful, I'm glad I found this while researching Twine! It was an impressive showcase for ways you can use it to make the literature very interactive while devoting fewer words and art assets-- things like the background changing to denote the time period, the colors changing to denote the speaker, the giant scrawls of text to denote panic, the text you can change to try to "think up a better option," and much more. It was very well thought out.

Fun! I love ECHO

Can you imagine being able to hear up to 2 miles away? That'd be crazy

Love it, i trust Fisherman Dave implicitly

Cute! They should give you a flower with your computer purchase tbh

Fun! Nice collection of facts too... i learned a lot

Maybe a giant letter will come back down ❤️ 

Very cute game with maybe the best win screen ever? Just may be

This is music for kid me to lose math munchers to, good job! They fill a nice niche too

thank you, I was definitely secretly fishing for if you had such a resource and you did not disappoint

Really beautiful. I love learning about them and your pictures are amazing. I am partial to Wilson's Warbler because it's got a fun to say name on top of everything else! My only regret is that I can't hear them too. Perhaps I will look into that.

I'M BEGINNING TO WARB!!

Cute! Great sense of humor. I will come back to this on my pc, I'm struggling to hit the B button on my phone lol

I cackled! Very funny. All hippos are aliens-- case closed

I think it is also the first Twine game I've played... I'd been thinking about Twine. Makes me want to dig into it!

Getting poisoned on pee-together island 👍 

Your sense of humor is honestly inspiring

Simply awesome. Professor FF may be the most amazing animal of all...

Cute cute cute! Also I never knew centipedes were chill like that. Lovely fact

Love these, I like #2 as kind of a high energy boss music and #7 as kind of a chill interaction music you could imagine in a kind of a tropical / havana setting. It's all very evocative!

(Also I did not know any of these music facts and they're all really interesting)

Very cool, as a Silent Hill guy I like Eating Habits... music to run from my terror to

(But the rest that is less terror is also good)

More fun than clams on pizza at the torture museum

I'm feeling insane about this game, it all just hits out of nowhere. The worldbuilding, alternate history, and supernatural element all hook you immediately. The political and espionage elements all through the middle make it impossible to out down. Finally, the relationship of the two agents along with the three insane (and all great in their own right) endings wrap it all up. This is going right on the top shelf of snack-sized but incredibly intentional and intense VNs I would recommend to anyone.

Insane vn that makes you so anxious you're going to vomit before making you go "aw, sweet!"

Damn it's good

Thank you, I didn't realize how easy Ren'py makes it to do until I saw this! Now I've updated my submission to include a web version. As a bonus, it also works pretty well on the phone, besides not having the custom GUI (maybe something I can work on in the future).

For anyone needing some additional tips, I recommend this thread: https://itch.io/t/2289319/creating-htmlweb-builds-last-tested-with-75122070801 

It goes over how to fix the pixilated graphics / skipped sounds you might experience when first exporting a web build, very handy!

GJ, good character designs and I love detective stuff. I overthought the killer a bit and made a wrong first pick oops, this is why I'm bad at Amogus

Absolutely amazing game, all of the character designs are really inspired and the story is gripping. The dialogue is consistently hilarious and the presentation made me think a lot about tricks I want to try in Ren'py myself. Also, I'm a sucker for nuns in all their forms.

Loved this comic, very cute, created more questions than it answered and that's why they call it a secret technique I think

Love this, gonna try this secret technique myself

Thank you for this resource! I was able to get animated blinks and flaps going in my NaNoRenO 2025 project, A Friend in the Funny Business, thanks to your tutorial! I'd always wanted to be able to animate sprite expressions.

Congratulations on getting it to the finish line! I am looking forward to trying many of the NaNoRenO projects when I get a moment here.

That'd be fantastic, thanks for reaching out. My Discord is #Aim7978 if you'd like to show me some examples!
