Easily one of my favourites from this SJ. Its a great example of how interactive mediums have some really great potential for representing unique experiences in ways others mediums can't. I thought the play on system as referring to both a computer system and a DID system was really clever, and I love how this informed both the aesthetic approach and the writing approach, with the diff headmates presented as simultaneously running programs on the same hardware. My friend who has DID found this relateable, and I really appluad this creator for representing something that's often overlooked. Ppl with DID get a very bad rep in most media, and are simultaneously hypersexualised as evil monsters and desexualised as subjects of desire. I thought this was really excellent and important, and I hope the creator develops this more into a longer project!

Really interesting game! I think the concept and incorporation of hypno into body hopping was really ingenious, and the use of Twine and the writing style worked really well. It was a very well realised game. I'm akways impressed when people are able to manipulate Twine's default format into something really interesting, and the use fo blurred text here was very specific and well done.
I really enjoyed the artwork and the easy intimacy between the characters! I feel like previous familiarity with these characters lore and world would have been usefu;, but I enjoyed figuring things out.I also didnt realise you could have those rpg elements in renpy games! so that's a new thing to experiment with for future projects!
I really enjoyed this! I love the use of camera movement to make the feeling of being in a hostile battlefield really immediate, and the set up for this story, with an amnesiac pilot who knows that something is wrong, but who has no context, and a myssterious dom handler is really interesting. I'm curious to see what direction you will take this project in!
it's AMAZIIING!!! The layouts here are incredible and you emulate 2000s magazine/zine aesthetics so so so well! this entire zine from its format to the way it evokes the anime/otaku culture of the time and the specific explorations of transmisogyny feels like a time capsule. I really love the mc and Matt, I hope they got to become the girls of their dreams together in the end.
your artwork is so amazing. The way you draw bodies and structure comic pages is like nothing else I've ever experienced. There's a lot to say about this story and how it relates to transness and gayness and sexual shame, but after experiencing the raw beauty of some of these comic pages... I genuinely just feel so thankful to be alive and to live on the same planet as art like this.
I thought this was really unique and explored its themes in a really interesting and evocative way. Since playing the game I haven't been able to stop thinking about it. The connection between protestant fruitless search for some kind of purity, the ultimately self serving penance of prayer etc and the juxtaposition with certain online trans space neuroses was actually genius. I also really like the visual and audio presentation with the different 'timelines' if u will being colourcoded, and the use of a dog clicker sfx was a nice touch. Really fantastic narrative game.
This is absolutely incredible. The panelling is incredible and the use of negative space is so good. I love this artstyle and it really complements the subject matter and the characters. The depictions of bodies feel really real and emotional. Phenomenal work, the bit about the character having her rib removed in the dream was soooo cool I also loved the dirty talk, so hot.
THIS IS SOOOOO AWESOMEEE!!! I love your art so much! The content warnings being displayed as food safety label things is honestly so big brain and funny, and I loved all the character designs and interactions. Your drawings always have so much energy and life to them. My favourite part of the zine was the part from the 'prey' perspective, the panel of the charater curled up in the stomach feeling so happy about getting eaten is so sweet honestly. 10/10 zine fr
This is extremely good and you made phenomenal use of the game engine to tell a story about the lack of agency young transfems are granted over their bodies and appearances. The dialogue between the two voices and the ways that different dialogue options are presented to the player, but then not actually used [the player is not allowed to assert themselves or come out] feels so painful. Really well made and really important.
This is really awesome! The text resonated with me and idk how intentional this was, but a lot of the outfites reminded me of stuff that transmedicalists circa the 2010s would draw caricatures of nonbinary/other transmasc ppl they didn;t like wearing. It makes me happy to see those kind of colourful and feminine aesthetics being reclaimed.
Today I met up with two transfem friends of mine. I met them years ago at a trans youth group we attended. When I first met one of my friends she was also denying her transwomanhood and staying in the neutral 'I'm nonbinary but maybe it isn't going to be abig deal for me' stage, now she's 4 years on estrogen and wears her E bottle on a necklace, is getting electrolysis, and has a loving girlfriend who's also a transwoman. We talked today abt how around the time before the pandemic began, she was just beginning to realize that she was actually a woman, and it feels kind of profound to me that today I've read this little game about a similar person at the beginning of the journey my friend has been on for years now. While right wing politicians are always scary and shitty we also don't need their approval to build our happiness. Making these big changes, accepting that you are who you are, unlearning ideas about gender, is scary but each day it gets a little easier. You will find happiness. Nothing and nobody can take that from you.
