Very clever twine game! I think you could make the UI more snazzy and add some sound to make it even more fun to play. I really loved how you used the different colored text for different speakers - simple, but effective. The crazy little universe you built in this story is fun and I definitely will be coming back to this for a play later when judging is done and I can properly sit and enjoy a full play!
Hello, glad that you liked it! Yeah, this is my first time using Twine so everything is set to the default settings. I spent the first two or so days of the game jam learning the engine; even learning how to make the text to appear right is difficult for me so I wasn’t able to customize the UI and add audio and images. Even the writing is unfinished, tons of lore left unexplained, plot holes and logic unfilled, and I had to scrap some conditional logic for the endings, dialogues and whatnot.
Anyhow, thank you for playing my little game. Much appreciated.
You did an amazing job in the timeframe available! I found the game engaging and would like to play it in depth. Please make sure your next build checks includes mobile options and sets the alignment to portrait. Your game will play fine on mobile but because you haven't selected that I have to rotate my phone and read 3 lines at a time with scroll.
Ah, very sorry for the inconvenience. I read the twine guide on submitting to itch and they mentioned something about making sure the Story Format works on mobile before choosing that option.
To be on the safe side, I didn’t toggle the option. But I guess I should’ve checked if the story format I used, Harlowe, supports mobile before I default to not checking the option. I will also look into the portrait alignment when I update the build.
Lesson learned and thank you for bringing that to my attention.
That's good. Yeah, I should've added a restart icon to all screens but being new to Twine, I need to add it manually to each one and I didn't have time to do so.

I wanted to keep on playing, but im not able to restart the game, even after closing and reopening the tab.
Wait I figured it out
