Update that I just got the rat pacifist, the next generation, and lovers survive in one playthrough! Spent way too long doing it (including uh maybe a bit too long on the clock lol) but what a great time!

I played this SO MUCH months ago and then the Game Grumps played it and I had to come back. Meant to go to bed before 11 last night. Meant to be productive unpacking before 11 last night. Instead stayed up past midnight trying to get a perfect run only to do an Arin and fuck it up with a really dumb move when I could have just beaten the dragon lol

Fallen London’s gender neutral option is so great lol

I’m so glad you like the game!

I definitely understand not feeling like you fit into the queer community. I’m bi, nb, and grey-ace, and have historically primarily dated guys, so it always feels like I’m not “queer enough.” But you’re queer and belong and I’m queer and belong and I hope one day we won’t second guess ourselves on that!

Thanks!!

Thanks! I almost had it be just a regular trash can as a sort of red herring, but I figured harassing the trash can was way funnier. Glad you agree lol

Thank you so much!!

Thank you so much!! Let me know if I need to tweak anything with the puzzle! I didn’t have the chance to have other people playtest as much as I wanted to.

💜 Thank you!!

Thank you so much! This is called “I started writing a much more broad narrative and then realized I would never be able to finish it in the ~9 days of the game jam and so I wrote this like 4/5 days in instead” lmao

Dang big update! Looking forward to checking this out

Thank you so much!!

Oh man thank you so much! I wasn’t expecting such a quick turn around on fixes, and I super appreciate it!

Also, I’m noticing changed variables aren’t reflecting in special pages.

Like if I start with VAR test = 1

and

=== specialPage ===

# Special_Page: Page Test

{test}

it will show 1

but if at some point I add one to the stat (I’ve tried both the typical ~alter(test,1) and the base ~test += 1) but it doesn’t change in the special page. This is the same for adding to lists, but I haven’t checked other kinds of variables yet.

Am I missing something?

Hey, loving this so far! I’m just having an issue figuring out how I would change where the image loads? Like if I want it below text rather than at the top of the page?

Thank you so much! I’m glad to hear it resonated with you and your friends

Thank you! 💜

So real lol Guys need better clothes in game and in real life ASAP

I’m so glad you liked it! And yeah I thought of that joke almost as soon as I started writing this lol Glad you appreciate it

Thank you so much!! I’m so glad it’s been resonating with people (sorry if this double posts; I swear I replied but now I’m not seeing it lol)

Immediately, having the background of the game work so seamlessly with the background of your page is extremely cool! “The author respects your opinion if you’re, like, not really into it man” is also a sign of a great start lol Dang I should have used “Are you a girl or a femboy?” in my game. Maybe for a porn parody lmao Very well written, and I love that you can choose to replay scenes at the end, but I really wish there had been choices besides the first one, even if all it did was change some flavor text. Still, it was a great story!

This was so fun! I initially considered using Binski, but I had never used it before and decided not to try to learn a whole new system when I had such a short amount of time to make a game lol I absolutely love the colors and the environment. Each part referenced the others perfectly, and there were so many ways to go through a lot of the rooms, and I love that you could still hang in areas that weren’t relevant to the main quest. Like being able to look out the windows! I am wondering if there’s something about the shoes you find at the beginning that I’m missing. I played through a second time and tried interacting with more things, but no luck, though I did notice in the dressing room there was a knocked over chair and no shoes in one of the sections! So maybe that’s related? Either way, it has such a lovely atmosphere I didn’t mind running around it a second time in the slightest. Love it!

This is really interesting, and I would love to see it expanded on more! The player character not even understanding everything they’re doing, having to learn from trial and error and remembering what their great aunt said definitely hooked me. I really loved the art style and the characters you could interact with, but I didn’t really understand the gift giving mechanic (which maybe I just didn’t try out enough), and I wish there was a little bit more variety in the text, especially for the morning. But considering the limited amount of time this was made in, I really enjoyed it! A neat take on farmsim-esque games.

I’m a huge fan of fairy stories and haven’t read many about sea fairies, much less salt fairies! Also a big fan of changeling stories. It was short, but I enjoyed the two endings I got (willingly trading places with the human and escaping with the human). Well done!

Thank you so much! I’m glad you liked the mixed up chronology. My first draft of this game was very linear, so I’m glad my feeling that it flowed better like it is now was right!

💜

Thank you so much!!

I’m so happy you found it relatable, especially as a nonbinary player! There were some things that felt very specific to me or people I’ve known rather than more general experiences, so it’s been great to see how many other trans people have been able to relate to it, even if they’re not nonbinary. Thank you so much for this review. It means a lot!

I’m so happy my game could make you feel so seen One of the reasons I wrote this is because I hadn’t really seen it much of anywhere else, so the fact that it resonates with you and others means so much to me!

Thank you so much for this thoughtful review! I’m really glad you liked that line about disguises — I initially intended to follow it with a section about the book Alanna: The First Adventure and maybe some other stories in which girls disguise themselves as boys since it’s such a prevalent trope, but it just didn’t fit the flow.

💜

I’m glad it resonated with you!

Thank you so much!!
