It's a very cute game with a nice story. It kinda made me want to cook the soup while playing the game. I also liked the breathing excercise. <3

Demi wird oft dann benutzt, wenn sich Menschen die meiste Zeit oder immer mit einem Geschlecht identifizieren, aber  andere Anteile schwanken können. Also zum Beispiel als Demi-Mann,  ist eine Person immer (unter anderem) männlich, aber kann auch zusätzlich manchmal genderqueer, manchmal weiblich, manchmal eher ageschlechtlich sein. Es kann auch sein, dass das nicht so stark schwankt aber eben der männliche Anteil der einzige ist, der orgendwie klar identifizierbar ist, es aber auch noch andere Anteile gibt.

Achso und ja zu den Türen, eigentlich hätten die alle funktionieren sollen. Da haben wir wohl mit unserem letzten Update einen Bug eingebaut. Werden das wahrscheinlich nochmal überarbeiten.

X wird auch tatsächlich so als Pronomen benutzt. Und bei uns im Bekanntenkreis wird zum Beispiel viel xier benutzt. Da gibt es auch einen tollen Erklärcomic von Anna Heger zu. ;) Ich kenne aber auch einige Personen, die nur ihren Namen nutzen. 

Hey! Danke für dieses schöne Video.

War spannend mal die Gedanken einer Person, die wir nicht kennen, mitzuverfolgen.

Etwas Info zu Dysphorie/Euphorie noch, weil es mir aufgefallen ist: Das ist nicht nur Körperbezogen.  Geschlechtseuphorie können zum Beispiel auch trans Menschen haben, wenn sie das erste Mal ihren (richtigen) Namen oder ihre Pronomen hören. Oder wenn sie sich grade einfach wohl fühlen mit sich selbst und ihrem Geschlecht. Oder wenn sie ein tolles neues Wort oder Konzept gefunden haben, dass sie gut beschreibt.

Dysphorie können auch Menschen haben, die an sich körperlich  von außen gesehen gar nicht anders wahrgenommen würden, aber sich dennoch selbst unwohl fühlen mit ihrem Körper oder ihrem Geschlecht.  Aber eben auch, wenn es nicht um Körper sondern nur den gesellschaftliche Umgang mit Geschlecht geht. Wenn eine nichtbinäre Person sich zum Beispiel  zwischen binärem Geschlecht auf einem Formular entscheiden muss. Oder Menschen, um sie herum sehr Geschlechterstereotype erwarten.

Haha, das ist jetzt sehr lang geworden. :D

This is so cool! :D

Such an honour to have a speedrun of our game! Are you sure, this is the fastest way, though? ;-)

Thanks a lot for the feedback!

We are actually planning an update which also includes a definition for void and updates a few of the other texts as well. As we are currently working on another jam game, the update will have to wait a few weeks though.

You can find a definition here for example for now: https://lgbta.wikia.org/wiki/Gendervoid

Thanks a lot! And glad you enjoyed our game. :)

We are thinking about including the definition of void in a next version, as we are currently reworking some of the definitions anyways. As we have often tried to make text, meaning and environment interact in some ways with each other, some of us thought that it was fitting to not have any definition for void, but we can see how including one could help people understand it better.

As we were mostly thinking about presenting identities that are not the norm, we didn't think much about further features for the cis room but (speaking for myself at least) I don't think any of us would want to say that cis equals being boring. There is such a variety in expressions and ways to live no matter whether you are cis or trans and even though there is the societal pressure to fit into some norms even inside of those norms are a myriad of ways to live it.

Thanks for your nice words! :) Glad you enjoyed it and could even learn a bit more.

I also identify with agender (partly at least) so I can see why it can be good to have some representation there. :) On the other hand we know that we could never include everything so we decided deliberately to just give a sample of the whole spectrum and tried not to follow a specific logic on what to include and what not.

The game is really sweet. I like the drawings especially the way the characters are drawn and the story is beautiful too. Well done <3

Oh my. ^^' Thanks for bringing this to our attention! Could you tell us what happened?

Ah... I really liked the game and I can relate quite a lot. So it was nice to see you put this into a game. I have had thoughts about doing top surgery for the last years. But again and again I felt like I don't really want it, it is just what society would expect me to do to "pass" (I can never pass anyway as non-binary cause there is no possible way to do that) and to fit into the gender expectations there are. I feel kind of uncomfortable with wearing very tight clothing or binders and most comfortable when I can be (alone/outside) with my naked chest in the wind without clothes. :D I wish you all the best for finding a way with (or without - if you should ever change your mind about it) your breasts and dealing with the bad parts of society. <3

I totally agree! :)

I loved this game! All the small things people say, the booktitles, the small stories you tell which are really true to life. :) The graphics are very nice too. There is one room which is completely empty, was that supposed to be like this? :)

Hey. That's a cool idea to use these well known book titles for this! =)

We'd really need this for german pronouns....

Hey. The text was really strong and well written and I really like twine games like this. Thank you for sharing this.

Nice game. I was really annoyed by that horrible professor. But the familizards were very cute and the protagonist seemed absolutely rad. (as well as your outfits for them) :)

yeah I got the same problem here...

"That asteroid looks like  a butt" <3

I really liked this journey. =) I can relate a lot to it. Sometimes feeling like leaving everything behind, having space for yourself, seeing the great void in front of you... it sounds amazing. But also scary and would probably be really lonely after a short time... The little jokes you put in are really funny, the scenery is beautiful, Chuck is love, all the little details about your/our experiences as non-binary people are conveyed really nicely.

When I saw the theme for the jam, I was actually also thinking about taking it literal and having a game about space, but we decided for something else in the end... :)

Thanks for this game! :)

Hey. Phew. Good game. It was a bit heavy in parts (as in reading about this violence), but very well written and I am happy that all endings are kind of well!? The atmosphere and the art are really cool too.

There was one bug I encountered in the browser version: One time I tried to go in the house before having picked the vegetables (and got the message that I can't) and when I picked them afterwards I couldn't go into the house anymore so I had to restart. Not sure what causes that, but maybe you can fix it.
