Introducing the... Single Choice Jam! [Games are up!]

I’d been thinking the game I’ve written 3 lines of had very little chance of being finished in time… but a whole bunch more wrote itself in my head while I was hanging laundry. We’ll see.

There is still time :wink:
The deadline is still some weeks away…

I’m thinking I’ll have that much more time with ParserComp done. IntroComp will start, but I will put off IntroComp to write Single Choice Jam code, since IntroComp ends later.

The daily grind, man. The daily grind. Phew!

Playing through Zhanko’s bitsy game and its main page, I saw a name that looked familiar…

Adam LeDoux, who at the very least shares the same last name as the person who wrote The Elfen Maiden: A Comedy of Error Messages for 2011 IFComp!

(Sadly it isn’t on his itch.io page. I hope he hasn’t disowned it!)

Assuming no case of mistaken identity, it’s cool to see yet one more person go beyond IFComp to bigger things!

Well, this was interesting to make. Not the game I intended, but I found this satisfying to design and program:

It looks really nice, but my general inexperience with parser games led to me not knowing how to do anything … I don’t know how to talk to people, if that’s what I want to do.

Hints?

You don’t talk to people, but you do something else. It’s likely the least expected thing you’re supposed to do when you’re starting out a text adventure game and something you would do only if you are stuck.

If you are still having difficulty (and this is fine because it’s intended!)

Write hear or listen.

Thank you for that, I wouldn’t know to do that if I was stuck (as I was, and I didn’t)

The ending (an ending?) seemed sudden …

I had this weird short story idea right before the jam was announced, so I appreciate the push to finish it:

Excited to check out some of the other entries and see how other people handled the constraint!
