Yayy, that's exactly the response I hope people will have! Thanks for leaving this nice comment :)

Thanks so much! :)

Thanks so much! :)

Aww, thanks so much for playing, and for leaving this nice comment! 💗 And 100% with you on the conveyor belt / music sync-up being sick!

Thank you! So glad you enjoyed playing :)

I was wondering if anyone would make a tap system similar to Morse code in this jam, and was delighted to find this game! I had a hard time getting into this specific use case but it's a super creative concept.

What a fantastic project with a lot of game juice! I got to Act 6/3 and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Super intuitive to pick up, too!

Thanks so much for playing, and for the kind words! :)

All good, thank you for doing that!!

Thank you! And there is only 1 input for gameplay. If you look at the ruleset, multiple inputs are allowed for menus and other non-gameplay elements, so our game fits the rules of the jam!

Such an impressive score (and I think the highest anyone has gotten??), here's your trophy! And thank youu so much for the kind words as well, so glad you enjoyed!! :)

Thanks so much for playing and leaving this nice comment! :)

Thanks so much for the kind words! And I'm sorry your head was hurting after playing endless! It definitely is a bit of a blur

to anyone who plays: if you beat the current highest endless high score, I will draw you a trophy with your name and score engraved on it ;)

Thank you for the kind words; I'm so glad you found it helpful :) !

I'm actually shookethed at how terribly funny and wonderfully clever this teeny game is!

Just wanted to leave a note saying how much I appreciate the design of this in every way! The design of your itch.io page feels super immersive and polished; the trifold layout itself is easily understood, beautiful, clean, and utilizes color effectively without being overwhelming; and the actual game design is interesting, creative, and evocative. I've never made a trifold zine before, and this one has sparked a lot of inspiration; thank you for sharing it!

I can access the files now! Thanks.

I had organized a one-shot of LAST TRAIN tonight with some friends, having previously bought the PDF, but when I went to download the PDF this afternoon, the purchase page told me that there were no available files for download. I understand that you're pausing PDF sales as the BackerKit campaign revs up, but could you please restore purchases for people who've already bought the TTRPG? Thanks!

Thank YOU for reading! 💗

Thanks so much for the kind words!! 💞💞

Thanks so much!! :)

Thanks so much for the kind words!! Glad you enjoyed :)

I love this zine so much — heartwarming and kept on making me smile throughout reading. Any particular inspirations for it?

Thanks so much for reading and leaving this nice comment! I'm really glad you found the article helpful :)

Super glad you enjoyed it — thanks so much for playing and leaving this nice comment! 💗

Thanks so much for playing, and for the kind words! 💗

I'm sharing my casting call for WAITING FOR THE DEATH WIND, a very short visual novel that will be submitted to this game jam, featuring dialogue between two characters: a dying Athenian warrior and his goddess. 

For the warrior, I'm paying a flat 175 USD for around 30 dialogue lines and a short, 7-line poem excerpt. 

• Voice Type: Masculine adult, medium or deep pitch
  
• Accent: Greek (think masc characters from Assassin’s Creed Odyssey)

• Voice Type: Femme adult, medium pitch
• Accent: Greek (think femme characters from Assassin's Creed Odyssey) 

This project has a tight turnaround, so please make sure to take a look at the timeline before submitting an audition. Feel free to DM me on Discord with questions (my username is "Jaylus"), but only submit audition lines via the casting call.

You can view the games I’ve created at https://www.romanhyacinths.com/games. I previously worked with a VA on another short visual novel, which you can play here.

Cheers!

Thank you for the kind words! 💗

Such a beautiful piece of quiet, intimate pondering.  Thank you for sharing! 💕

This is SUCH a cute idea, and the art is so gorgeous, particularly with the sunset color palette you chose. I can't believe this is your first attempt at pixel art — it's so good! Would you consider making this into an actual game?

Excited to see your progress!! 

I love visual novels, and I love this project! The diversity of screen types makes the game feel really thoroughly real, even though it's just a mockup. I also love the duality of the twins when it comes  to their visual symbolism. Would you consider making this into a full game? :)

Insanely cool mockup — absolutely love this take on the multiverse prompt, and I'm so glad this jam was a good opportunity to bring some long-standing ideas to life! It reminded me a bit (in a good way) of the GMTK 2024 winner My Shadows Are Bright. I'm excited to see more of your ideas in the future! 

I love the character art in this mockup, as well as the concept! I'm guilty of focusing on major deities in media, so it was cool to read about your "divine doorkeepers" focus. The cover art is also super neat. Would love to see the small WIP sketches you mentioned at some point!

This is insanely cool — I've never once wanted a game makeup to be more real! Are you thinking of developing this into a game, or are you happy to leave it at a mockup? I'd play it in a heartbeat.

Thank you!!

Thanks so much! Super appreciate the kind words.

Thank you!! 💕

I watched a friend win the game without using the gnaw button and was in awe haha; great work and ty for playing!
