Oh my gosh, this is incredible! Thank you so much for sharing! It's wonderful to hear that the game is reaching people in a special way, and I love that inspired you to dig out your own tamagotchi. I didn't know about the load feature either! I'm so glad you got a chance to reconnect with your long-lost friend.
Hi everyone, jumping on the thread to say that if you are interested in sharing what you've created during the Closing Presentations, send an email to sebastian@nowplaythis.net
We're super interested to see whatever you've put together, whether it's a game, a text, an action or just a draft. It'll be streamed on our Twitch channel as part of Now Play This Festival.
Walk with me to Derwent is a sort of point-and-click poetry game about looking for sunken villages in the Peak District.

Between 1943 and 1945, the Ladybower Reservoir slowly filled with water. To facilitate the creation of this huge body of water in Derbyshire’s Hope Valley, two villages in the reservoir’s basin were evacuated. The inhabitants of Derwent and Ashopton were displaced to other local towns, or the nearby city of Sheffield. I went to the area to try and find the location of Derwent, and to find any remnants of the people that lived there.
