10 Games We Played on Long Car Rides and in Standby Lines at Disney by harpsi finite games and infinite playtime

I just played this really great piece of interactive fiction by @harps1.bsky.social (thanks to the @narrascope.org showcase shortlist).
Its little quirks and choices in the pacing gave off that freewheeling summer vibes. Very well designed.

thank you❤️ I haven’t played lilancholy but looks extremely interesting

Stills from a walking sim I made weeks ago.
It's about exploring a city as an incarnation of Riko, a sweet pink haired girl, in the style of cute electronica, early 2000s shoujo manga, and twee love pop songs.
