Went around all weekend pondering upon the theme, and finally I think I got something good together.
Made in: Twine Graphics/Style: PaperBlurt
About "The 10 (other) Seconds Journey":
I thought about the theme and felt that I wanted to do something different with the theme, at the same time as I want the ones playing it maybe laugh or stop and think for a second. I hope I've achieved that.
I always try to incorporate parts from my own life into what I create..
Enjoy and don't forget to rate!
UPDATE 28/8:
Just realised that my game actual is permadeath, I just wanted to add a bit of challenge in the game. But permadeath stays during the compo at least.. then we'll see!
Took me a few runs to get through to the last floor and had none to spare. But then I got it right :) Good idea, good looking theme but I feel that sounds to accompany the text are missing, specially with those short lines.
Surprisingly fun text adventure. I might have just restarted the game from the current chapter instead of restarting the game as replaying multiple chapters is a bit annoying.
...wh... what. Rock Hudson? Titanic.. My head hurts. This is hillarious, but so, so confusing... And my sides hurt too. And my eyes are full of tears. :D
Lovely! It really does get you to think about life and choices... The burning people part is incredibly visceral. Congratulations! I admit I got curious about your personal story. :)
I enjoyed this. I love all the fast switching I have to do mentally each time I get to a new (second) story. Kind of like quickfire trivia, where I felt I had to answer fast but the questions were always totally from left field.
You've done some very cool stuff in Twine here (speaking as someone who has Twine but is very far from having learnt all the tricks). Nice use of colours, visuals, timers, etc.
Some of the story snippets were pretty good (the war zone bit was probably my favourite), and I like the story/story pun, but as a whole, this seemed a bit too incomprehensible for me. I've got nothing against absurdity and symbolism, but here, it all seemed too vague to add up to much.
Hard one to rate: I enjoyed playing it, but I can't quite put my finger on what I was doing.
Funny twine game, if a little disconcerting :D Managed to beat it on my second run though, felt pretty good. And all in all a very nice experience, really different!
I liked the idea, but I felt that some desicions were sort of random, while others actually did have meaning. Made it on my second try :P (I just had to punch that guy in the face)
Well written, could have used some sound or music. Each level felt unrelated and the choices felt random - instead I would have liked your story to create a world and for my choices to relate to what I'm learning about your world as I play.
Interesting. I failed the first couple of floors, then finished all of them in one go, generally just not being a dick :) As I got closer to the end I was like "pick right, pick right!" because the fear of failure took over.
Good idea, good looking theme but I feel that sounds to accompany the text are missing, specially with those short lines.
