About Game
is a kinetic novel following former field detective Hal Macleod on her sixth annual return to the same small town her former field partner disappeared in now six years ago. It’s an exploration of love, loss, and holiday-tinged grief through a cloudy queer lens. This is only a demo version and contains only 1/3rd of what I have planned to add to this game and its story. : <ul><li>Currently at 27k words, full play-through lasts 10-15 minutes </li><li>Kinetic novel </li><li>Hand-drawn sprites and backgrounds </li><li>Is gay <3</li><li>Full release will have one (happy) ending </li><li>CW: Explicit language, verbal depictions of violence. </li></ul> Author’s Note: was originally conceptualized and briefly worked on for Winter Jam 2022 before unexpected illness forced my hand to shelve it. It has been revived for FFS Jam 2023, if only for a demo. Very appreciative of the motivation this jam gave me to finish something towards the final project, and doubly excited to finally share the beginning of what’s been a passion project in my mind for far too long now. As this is a demo, it’s a little rough around the edges. I am aware of most of the issues I’m releasing this demo with, and am working hard to rectify them all for the full release! The only slightly disruptive issue you may encounter is the inability to save as I have not yet reprogrammed my UI.
