Between the Lines: Prologue - Point and Click adventure about war.

Between the Lines is a brief point-and-click adventure game a la the old LucasArts and Sierra games of the 90s. You play as a question mark in a WWII-esque setting in the midst of a war between Letters and Numbers.

This game's Android port was recently featured on droidgamers.com's Best New Android Games This Week article from Oct 5th.

This game was originally created for the $106 Game Jam on itch.io. Due to the two week time limit (as well as work and children), I couldn't create the entire story as I would have liked, but instead made a prologue (see: "playable demo") to a much longer adventure game that I am continuing to work on. 

Between the Lines sees the main character, a punctuation mark, stuck in the middle of a struggle between the Commonwealth of Letters and the Confederation of the Nine. Being an outsider as a punctuation mark, the main character must try to find their place in  a strange world in which letters and numbers are struggling for supremacy.

The game in general is pretty short. In fact, if you knew exactly what to do, you could probably speed-run it in less than five minutes. But, if you're interested in speaking to all of the characters and learning about the lore, it should give you a decent chunk of experience.
