1. Hi there! What's your name? Want to introduce yourself?

Hi. You can call me Nano, or just call me by my user name.

2. Did you participate in the last jam we held? If so, what do you plan on doing better this time? If not, what's your reason for joining?

This is my first time joining a jam.  I'm currently motivated to create my own interactive fiction from... something. It was just yesterday but I can't rememner anymore. Then I found this jam and thought "Why not?". I would also like to finish a game all by myself, as all my previous succesful attempts I did it with other people. I think having a time limit and a theme will motivate me better.

3. What games are your favorites? Did any of them inspire you, or made you want to make your own?

I love games like Harvest Moon: Back to Nature, Stardew Valley, Graveyard Keeper, etc. I also love Undertale. In general, I like games that tell a story, have a unique concept, and I can go back to play it any time I want even if I forget that I even have that game for like a year. I have wanted to get into game development for years now, even consider going to school for it but in the end decided to keep it as a hobby of sort. I want to create games to tell stories.

4. Do you have experience with game development? What did you do/with what engine?

I have used Stencyl to create a game for a high school competition once. It was very simple and we didn't get any prize. I went to a camp that taught me to make a game with Python once. I did the code with a friend. Both times the games were finished within the time limit( a few hours and a few days), but I wasn't working on it alone. They also weren't the type of game that I would choose if I work by myself. I have tried out RPG Maker(VX or VX Ace? I'm not sure) and Unity, but nothing came out of it. I just downloaded Twine today. I'm still looking around and reading about what I can do with it.

5. Tell us about something you're passionate about!

I LOVE READING! I just love it. Most of the time when I'm awake is spent reading or searching for something to read. I mostly read fanfictions right now. Other than that, I want to write stories. I have too many plots and concepts that I want to write about but never get to do because I'm terrible at time management.

6. What are your goals for this game jam?

Finish a game in the timeframe and make the story at least a little interesting. Also learning to use Twine to do things.
