If I could make everyone in the world read one zine/essay, it's probably this one

Absolutely stunning work as usual 

This one touched me just as much as the first one but in different ways. It can be hard to imagine a life after the trauma and abuse (of any kind), a life where you are surrounded by people that understand you and understand what you went through. But it's true. There is hope. This book gives me hope. I tear up a bit writing this review because the topic is one that I hold dear to my heart. Finding community can be hard but it is never impossible. 

A truly amazing short story that I found myself relating to so so SO much. Both as someone who's trans and as someone who comes from a small village in the countryside of East Europe. While my family wasn't religious, everyone else around me was and it definitely infected my perception of who I can be. And when I managed to escape aka to move for university, I also felt like the main character, shedding my skin and blooming into a new person that's been begging to be let free for so long. 

Do you ever go into a book that's full of triggers and think "ï don't think i'll enjoy it" but then after you finish it, you did enjoy it? That's how I felt with this story. The characters are a favour of fucked up that I just can't help but like. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone though. It's weird, it's gore-y, it's experimental. But it's also so in character for the main characters. 

This book truly amazed me with how it goes from horror/gore to oddly charming soft moments. The triggers are definitely to be checked before venturing into this story. But if it's something you can handle, then in the second half of the book you would discover an oddly sweet story of devotion and being one with nature that is beyond human comprehention. The characters were lovely and I can definitely see how they were inspired by Adam and Eve. I love this take of the biblical myth of creation. I look forward to the other stories of this universe. The author really knows how to write in a style that's accessible and snacky at the same time.

This was absolutely delightful to read! And very much on theme considering I've read this on a hot June afternoon. The poems were really well crafted and some of them hit so close to home. Especially the one titled "it somehow hurts more". Even tho I'm not American, I could relate to the American queer struggles present in some of the poems. I hope the author continues their writing journey because I can see them getting really big and appreciated. 

This story was so good, i wish there was more. Guess I'll just have to go read other stories written by you x))

Sure! I sent you a friend request on discord (my username is rwi_)

having fun making a bunch of pipes atm

I wanted to clear some things up. Is this jam just for games? or is it open to all kinds of surreal weirdcore art? 

Jam Toast should totally be an element.

love the chaos

i love how handmade this looks. the overlap of textures and texts, amazing

i think i get it. beautiful work

Always a pleasure working together ^^

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a zine jam with a theme surrounding neurodivergence and mental illnesses.  

The writing of this little game is so whimsical and catchy. It sucks you into the universe of the thing you are creating. Plus I'm a sucker for map making games

I was asking more out of curiosity. Unless inspiration strikes before the deadline, I will leave just the one that i have already posted. again, i don't wanna overshadow the rest of the participants. 

short and sweet []~(￣▽￣)~*

and i think i get it. I think i get you, stranger on the internet. We might not know each other but we are more alike than i am with other people around me in real life. i hope you're doing good these days

This is an amazing little game. I am a sucker for the trope of someone being chosen to be sacrificed for a god so this hit all the right spots for me. The artwork is amazing, the colours are harmonizing perfectly with the story. And the story! The story is amazing, all endings! Please give this visual novel a try, you won't regret your decision.

thank you ^^

I was wondering if such thing is possible. I don't wanna overtake the attention from other people's creations

you should make more of it uwu

very cool, nice colours <3
