Thanks! I just finished the demo without other issues =)

No worries, it's all part of game dev =P  Hope it's ok if I keep posting these (I'm really enjoying the demo, haha!)

This one happened when Cody used Heartbreaker, though I was able to choose ignore and continue. (Although now that I think about it, I loaded a save mid-battle, which maybe I shouldn't have...)  

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Thank you! I kept playing and got quite far, but hit another error when fighting blue and yellow (can't remember what triggered it this time, sorry)

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

A short and sweet game about a mother and daughter driving home, and their caring relationship!

Tender sits nicely between 'real' and 'surreal'. Some conversations I could see myself having with people, others are (probably) just outcomes of dating alien creatures in a strangely rigid dating system.
Most of what I can say about this game - how frustrating it can feel to find someone decent to talk to out of a wide pool, wanting to win a character over but not knowing how, wondering if silence means they're busy or not interested - just goes to show that Tender acts exactly as it should. Just make sure to remember that when you start playing!

This might be too late, but it is!
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1604640/Tender_Creature_Comforts/

A very interesting adventure game which sees Dot travelling back in time and learning about her family's history with her neighbourhood in Detroit - which helps her figure out what to do with her own future.
It's short, free, and a great way to explore a time and place not all of us are familiar with. Definitely give it a go!

A short and sweet game. Fish, grow plants and make friends while helping clean up and revitalise a small world. Nice to relax with, alongside a cup of tea or an audiobook (though the fishing minigame can be a bit more challenging, if you want it to!)

I love that a game about slowly creeping despair can can feel like such a sweet, touching experience by the end! If anything about this short narrative horror game sounds appealing, give it a few hours of your time.

An enjoyable, short-ish game featuring a non-binary ace protagonist whisked away by aliens to live out (or prolong) the rest of their life.
It's labelled as a dating sim (and there are robots and humans to date!), but it's at least as much about your character's medical condition and journey, and the support they get along the way. Even 'bad' endings and failed dates add to your story, the same way the game encourages you to enjoy life while you have it. I would suggest playing as many routes as you can, to flesh out the characters =)

Placebo Love is a thoughtful exploration of loneliness, connections, and many different kinds of bonds.

It's a scheduling game with many helpful conveniences to help you see all the content, with pleasant music and art, and occasional minigames to give things a different feel.

I broadly enjoyed the characters (especially CC!), although the overarching mystery didn't quite capture my imagination. That said, the game is overall well worth playing! 

A lovely little game, perfect to unwind on its own, or alongside watching something else (you can fish by sound or visual cues). The small bits of story add to the experience. I believe in you, Pengu, but make sure to take your time ❤

This is a lovely game! I learned about psychology and philosophy alongside enjoying the characters' interactions, all with a nice presentation (in terms of the art and music, but also the crafting and enchanting).

I want to see more games like this - whether I agree with every character/story/theme or not, I found it interesting.

Aaah this hits hard! 😖 

That's amazing, congratulations! It's very well deserved!

Mini Review:
A lovely, poetic game about being a creature of the deep. It’s short, so I don’t want to spoil too much – if you’re in the mood for something that can be surprisingly touching, give it a go!

Mini Review:

A space exploration and trading game with a nice atmosphere, perfect to play in short sessions. It’s a very relaxed experience, despite the fact that you know your trip is one way – it’s all about what you see along the way. Chart your way through each zone, choosing areas you think will want your trade goods, or whose descriptions sound interesting. Once you land, you might trade your wine for an interesting sculpture, collect samples to help someone’s research, or recruit crew members to help you travel. It’s a lovely game to dip into space, take in a few planets at a time with some lovely ambient music, and come out refreshed.

Five characters, five stories told in different ways. Glimpse the characters’ past and present in this fantasy world, see what drove them to this point, what motivates them to fight, what it is they can’t afford to lose. There’s lots of different threads to follow, and while it may not be clear how it all connects at first, seeing all the different perspectives made the story come to life for me. Definitely a treat for fans of fiction (interactive or otherwise)!

Mini Review: The Silence Under Your Bed is an easy-going kind of creepy. As with any good collection of stories, each is unique and memorable, a bite of something flavourful and uncanny. The art and music help each story stand on their own while forming a coherent whole. It’s the perfect game if you’re in the mood for a pleasantly chilling atmosphere!

I played Bleep Bloop on the Switch (2 player co-op) and it was great fun! It's tough enough that you might find yourself naming manoeuvres so you can communicate faster ('do the circle thing!'), but short enough to finish in 1-2 sittings. Perfect for a fun evening or weekend with a friend! 

Hehe, this was fun =) 

Hello! I'm working on my submission, and I have two quick questions about the word/art limit.

- I've been adding up all the words that could be presented to the reader across all playthroughs and keeping them under 1000. I have one passage (let's say 50-words long) that the reader can go to a few times across the story, which I counted as 50 words. I just wanted to check you don't think it should count as 200, 250 or 300 words, depending on the number of times the player finds that same passage. 

- Are cover and/or background images okay for a prose submission?

Thanks, looking forward to seeing other people's entries!
Flo

This is a lovely, pensive game. Perfect for a quiet evening!

Aw this was really nice! (at least the way things went for me) Lovely little game =)

Mmm, so good. You succeeded at making me hungry, thanks! =)

I just submitted Attunement to the AceJam! There's still a bit of time before the deadline, so if anyone would like to try the game, I'd love some feedback (and let me know if you want to be credited as a tester!).

Anaïs' monthly ritual, used to strengthens the bonds with her magical items, is interrupted by her partner Grant. Rather than put it off, she decides to continue, and use it as an opportunity to tell him a bit more about herself, as she created the items during moments of personal realization and change. Among these are the first time something magical happened to her and her first inkling that she might be asexual. 

Attunement is a twine game, and takes 20-30 minutes to play.

I love it! The movement is different but still intuitive and the game itself is lovely =)

Really enjoyed the game =) A couple of things I've seen on my walks (sorry if they're already in the game and I didn't see them!) - old shoe, interesting cloud, lost tourist, broken fence, nice-smelling lavender bushes, piles of leaves, camper van, lost scarf/gloves.

I had fun playing this! I haven't found the last combination yet, but I like the experimentation.

I managed to impress my mom a bit more this time, but at what price? My poor, ketchup-covered socks may never be white again... (PS- I liked the game!)

I like this kind of hectic fun! I think I'm just about getting the hang of being human, now to see if I can do more than just listen...

Quick and cute, I like it! It's one of those games where it took me until the end to understand certain things, but they were required to finish the levels, so it worked well!

I'm having a lot of fun with this =) The periodic rearranging of items solved my early misfiring problems (I seem to throw things at corners a lot and then have trouble getting them back out), and now I think my aim is getting a bit better =P
