This was very cute but also your under the hood post helped me *immensely* with a part of a game I was working on (here), so thank you very very much!!

I'd had this open in a tab for weeks so I could play it when I was able to give the time to it properly and I'm so glad I finally got to explore and play--truly play, what a wonderful way to shape a poem! I ended mine before using all the lines, as I liked it as it was when I finally looked at it (hadn't looked until this point and frankly, lost the lines in my mind the moment I selected them, so it was a surprise to me).

Early Spring

or parchment paper is fine
where her winter of damage
you’re just making little piles,
you are fresh as a bird
like colors. Deep colors
and watch the pigeons
whenever your day starts, that is.

WARNINGS
I won't be held accountable
fire-roasted with some char remaining,
I'm sorry I don't have more on hand

Yes yes yes! It's like the parade scene in Paprika, rendered line by line.

This is so gorgeous and I’m awful at sliding time puzzles but I kept coming back to it because I wanted to solve it and see more of the game (thank you, really useful WikiHow article, haha)! The colour palette is lovely also. Really wonderful little game!

Thank you so much! I was very excited to find such a nice palette to work with.

Oh I LOVED this, so evocative so simply and also wow: cutting a 7k story down to 500 words, yet keeping the core of it!! Bravo!

Thank you!! I had fun making both.

Luckily they're on the other side of the glass!! (although, we used to have a porch right next to a bush that bees would take their lunch in and the energy really was that of two people in a coffee shop, side by side but not interacting).

I did laugh at the reveal.

A great balance of sparse but evocative! The tomato soup pic was: startlingly visceral in context.

Oooh, simple and moody, you handled three endings with such limited words well!

<3 Thank you!

Thank you!! My favourite eye-spy game is guessing "is that a leaf or a lizard" in real life when taking a walk.

Ahh, thank you!! I put the idea's genesis fully on my complete inability to remember what I can craft.

Oh this was a nice little vignette! I love looking around for critters, there is so much to find, if you look.

Ah! This was very fun and I loved the variable endings.

Ah damn, can't have two cakes hay and eat them too.

I did laugh out loud at the response to "tisane."

I love the way you can switch between tactics and the results of your choices. Also the drawings are: perfection.

Hahaha, this was cute and fun! Great look and I love the idea of a hidden object game in a dragon's cave.

This is a very good use of looping in IF!

This was such a soft and gentle vignette, thank you!

Hahhaha, this was very fun and cute (and a fave fairy tale), I really enjoyed the "say after me" bit.

I love that the loop is eternal until it is not, always fun to know what is coming and try to avoid it!

This is very cute! I was particularly charmed by the night shift isopod.

This is a really cute little world! I figured out the mouse movement to see around things a little better, but did a couple of times get myself angled weird to the character's movement grid. Which was fine! I got the hang of it. Anyway: shrimp?! <3

Thank you! 💖

This was adorably and brutally on-point for how art is often graded. A little tough for me to navigate with arrow keys which made exploring the world a little frustrating but did enjoy that I could just walk off the side of the world rather than find the professor's office to turn something in. 

Oh gosh, thank you! There are only two endings, but three different paths of tones to them.
