Thank you!! I’m really glad you enjoyed it, this comment means means a lot to me <3
Thank you for hosting the jam!
Thank you!! This comment means a lot, I’ve been away from home for the last week so I almost missed it
I’m glad the transgenderism came through, and I’m also really glad you liked the pacing, most of my focus went towards pacing on this game!
Thanks for letting me know the bug still seems to be there, I’ve been trying to fix what I think it could be whenever people tell me they’ve run into it but I can’t replicate it myself so I never know if it’s actually fixed ;-; one day I think I’ll completely remake it to be playable in browser and upload that version, or I’ll do a secret third thing..
thank you for leaving such a nice comment, it means a lot! and for hosting the jam, i had a really nice time making this game :]
you’re probably right with the sprite sheet tip! I’m kinda kicking myself for not making the game in an engine that runs in browser. Maybe i’ll remake it one day in inkrunner.. but turning the videos into sprites is a considerably more simple solution ^^; ty for suggesting it
i missed your comment ^^; but thank you!
i dont know if revealing the symbolic elements of a piece of art makes an experience worse, and like death of the author your interpretation is more important than mine in some ways but if youre curious:
–
in my head the ritual is like making and sharing art, so all the npcs are participating by making stuff and giving it to you and then youre continuing it by making new stuff and giving it back to them. on a more meta level though youre completing a ritual i started by playing a game i have made
Hey! That’s not something I would know too much about, how people get access to their game is handled on itch.io’s end, but here’s a link to an itch help page about it: https://itch.io/docs/buying/already-bought
Also, if worse comes to worse just DM me on twitter, tell me ur kapybeara and give me ur email and i can send u a key separately.
I watched my friend stream this on discord to me, it was a really cool narrative and i really enjoy everything you did to set tone, particularly the art! (which whoa u did so much in the time span)
friend: “it was a very thematically interesting game, that was surprising and visually it was neat and audibly it was cool, the writing was good, i really liked the end. it was good. fuck, jeez.”
aaah thanks again, im glad the feeling i was going for got across, and ty for what u said abt my style!!
also with being open about being desperate being valuable, i think like while i was posting this i felt a little bad about it not rly being a manifesto in a looking forward sense but like idk trying to walk through how i felt now. but looking back on it after it being posted for a couple days i am starting to be ok with it because i think trying to pinpoint these feelings has been helpful to me and seems to have resonated with some ppl which is rly neat
thank you!! im glad you like my writing style i struggle to think of myself as a writer and kinda often assume its holding back my other skills so ur kinda giving me more confidence with it.
also ty for what you said abt the other points in the manifesto its interesting seeing how they get interpreted. ppl looking for meaning in ur stuff is fun
