you are thinking about silver
A downloadable memory
you are thinking about silver is an autofiction lyric game. this really happened, more or less. if you wish to pretend it didn't happen, you may plug your nose against the stench and think of happier things. are my family really werewolves? jury's out, i tend to believe it. it's harder not to when you've lived through the evidence. try to really play along, or don't. what's happened has happened and you rolling your dice is not going to change that. but it might make you feel better to be in control of something

Just purchased and downloaded :-) Can't wait to play!!
thank you so much! i hope you find meaning in it!
The way this piece plays with control and impossible instructions is so incredibly effective. I also particularly love the use of tautologies. Lends this sense of inevitability and dread to the whole thing. Seriously, I feel like I'm learning so much by reading this -- about how to use the language of TTRPGs to deliver gut punches, about characterization, about ambient worldbuilding. I can't accurately describe the emotion I felt when reaching the end, and that's really good.
Also, thank you for including a dyslexia friendly version! This prompted me to start doing that with my stuff from now on.
What a stellar submission to the jam.
this comment really touched my heart, thank you so much for the kind words. this was my first time trying a lyric game and i wasnt sure if it really "fit" anywhere so im glad to hear it was effective :)
Loved this as a bit to read rather than play! Great tension, great setting~!
thank you so much! what a lovely comment :)
