My next game idea is niche and nerdy as fuck, even for videogames. I want to make a text-based baseball game in Twine. As far as I can tell, the only text baseball games are crazy hardcore stat simulations, and I want mine to be much more accessible and more like a text version of a regular baseball videogame (i.e. there is strategy, and knowing the game helps, but everyone should be able to play). I’m even trying my hand at some ASCII visuals for it.
The Love That Ends It All
sloanesloane.comhere’s another twine game i made for the PULSE POUNDING HEART STOPPING DATING SIM GAME JAM!!! it was a really fun challenge since i’ve never played a dating sim before. the story is a romantic scifi/crime pulp! hope you like it :)
Hidden Maze City
Miles and I made a ridiculous and stupid Twine game for Porpentine’s Big Chaos Twine Jam.
We had a lot of fun, and after checking out the other entries, we’re really stoked to crack Twine/Twee open and get at some of its more in depth features. This is a truly beautiful and exciting movement and medium.
If you haven’t checked out the Twine community, I highly recommend it! Especially Porpentine’s Twine games; she is a fucking wizard with this shit.
All Big Chaos Jam entries are HERE, and Phack maintains a hub with like every Twine game ever HERE.
Oh and, you can play Hidden Maze City HERE

The Murdelator
The Murdelator is a Twine game / interactive short story set in a cyberpunk future. It is about harassment, passing, body modification, gamification, and jacked-up cyborg killers.
Trigger Warnings for: harassment, graphic depictions of violence.
Turbo Ultra Gay
db.ttThis is my first twine game. tw for rape and bulimia talk.
Five Words (go go go)
quiltbag.herokuapp.comI made my first Twine game for the QUILTBAG game jam that is on this weekend. The game took approximately a day to make. No kidding, Twine is unbelievably user friendly. If you can use Tumblr, you can use Twine. All the illustration were done in EasypaintSAI, which I love until end of time but takes a little bit longer to get used to.
The game is made with thoughts toward younger children who suspect they are queer, or a little bit different; yet feel like they need a label to belong. Perhaps the sentence structure was poor for that regard (as I had 5 to 8 year olds in mind), but alas.
Any feedbacks are welcome. After all, the moment something is uploaded is the moment all the words scramble themselves into typos.
metrolith
inspiration zdzisław beksiński | romanticism
notes I made this in a day for BIG TRASHY TWINE JAM. There was going to be more randomization, more travelers (the dauber in search of dyes didn’t make it sadly), and more passages.
I think I came up with a decent micro-story generator all in all. I tried to make it so that each play reveals more of the city—something only glimpsed in one run might become clear in another—recurring landmarks seen from different angles until you develop an idea of what they are.
I like the loom-like quality of the node map.
Zdzisław Beksiński is the best.
Tangled Twine
Here is a cross-section of today’s big tangle:
The game is fully playable up to the BBQ now. That section, the part up and on the left, is the part where you can talk to folks when you get to the BBQ, just before you get called over to help at the grill.
The general pacing is still abysmal (i.e. if you go the route that leads direct through the Library, it’s glaringly obvious that the necessary three hours can’t have passed), but I’m just gonna grit my teeth and agree that I’ll come back to flesh that out once there is a fully-playable outline (which is much more important anyhow). Irks me, as a perfectionist, but there you are.
So what I have is: 24,683 words. Fully playable first two sections (of the planned seven), and I may be able to have the BBQ-sequence done today or tomorrow. This glum rainy day is perfect for it.
My self-imposed deadline of three weeks to a FULLY playable version of the game (counting from Thursday, May 16th) may be realistic after all.
