Holy crap, The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood was really great! Highly recommend checking it out to anyone who enjoys narrative games, witchy vibes, and just good storytelling. For someone who's missed good writing in narrative games and RPGs lately, this was a really a breath of fresh air!

Now with this and Sea of Stars out of the way, I can finally start Baldur's Gate 3… 😅

We had the opportunity to speak with Narufumi Iwasaki about making #NarrativeGames and organizing indie game events like Indie Game Moku Moku Kai, #TokyoGameDungeon and this Sunday's #YokohamaGameDungeon!

I'm Felipe, a Brazilian CS Master's student at the University of Tsukuba (Japan)! I'm studying how to extract a small plot (story) from the log of an A.I.Wolf game! I'm using graphs!

I intent to continue my studies on narrative generation towards a phD! Looking forward to meet people from the field and know what you're working on! :D

Do you know why the introduction broke up with the conclusion? 'Cause they were never in the same page.

If you're into #narrativegames then you might want to try out the demo of my game PENITENCE - it follows an initiate as he attempts to become a brother of a strange religious order. Sealed inside a temple on an abandoned Earth, what will he discover as he ventures deeper inside?

Wrote about Neko Can Dream, a gorgeous and surreal Game Boy-styled adventure game made by Nekobungi Sumire. Dive into people's dreams and figure out how to turn them into canned dreams. It's a haunting and strange story, and one that I really hope more people check out.

I've been lurking here for months, time for an #introduction post.

I'm a #scienceFiction #writer, currently working on a #biopunk / #cyberpunk / #artificialIntelligence series.

Other interests include #weaving, #watercolor, #narrativeGames, #gameDev and #gameDesign, and whatever my brain has decided is fascinating this week.

TBH, I stopped posting to any form of social media years ago, and I'm not entirely sure what I'll post here or how often, but hi.

I understand the "Embrace failure!" philosophy in modern #NarrativeGames, and #Pentiment does a great job delivering on it.

Still, when you're just piling up one completely blown conversation-check after the next, it starts to weigh on you a bit, doesn't it?

Two cack-handed murder investigations in, and my only social-engineering success so far has been convincing an eight-year-old to embrace paganism.

Ok #gamers, I need a new narrative game. I just finished Gerda: A Flame in Winter from Don’t Nod and PortaPlay and loved it. I like story games in which my decisions have consequences. Recommendedations? #videogames #narrativegames
