The Truth of the Nightmare, by TrexandDrago Development
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful:
A Nightmare or a haunting?, June 23, 2023
Related reviews: neotwinyjam

Your friend has been plagued by a recurring nightmare, and you are given the choice to pull the information out of him or speak to a (his?) support robot. Either choice brings more questions than answers… This felt like a good beginning to a mystery, maybe an investigative one.
It has some potential. But I did find the formatting and prose hindering my enjoyment of the story…

Scale, by lavieenmeow
Swimming around in an aquarium, living the (goldfish) life., June 23, 2023
Related reviews: neotwinyjam

In this endless game, you play an unnamed goldfish, waking up doing some activities (from a choice of 4), having dinner, and doing it all over again the day after. But doing the same thing again and again does not always yield the same result… It was simple, short (at least when I played), and quite fun!

crash-landed, by Cyra Ezekeli
The End of the Road… or is it?, June 23, 2023
Related reviews: neotwinyjam

A slick, simple and futuristic design, a life-or-death (well, more like almost-death) situation, and a comedic robot… that’s what this entry is offering. Through its shortness, and the grim setting, there are some funny moments, some frightening moments, and some touching moments. The two endings hit a nice punch.

Just a normal Human, by glucosify

Remember to breathe and blink, like a human., June 23, 2023
Related reviews: neotwinyjam

Pretending to be anything else but a human and looking at human nature is always a trip. And this entry is just that. From its bright funky colours, to the strange backgrounds and icon, JNH takes you on a strange ride of looking at the strange creatures that are humans. It is done humorously (with some good-old self-deprecation, and physical comedy) and very funkily.

i've been drinking again, by yuveim

Same conversation, same fight, drinking again…, June 23, 2023
Related reviews: neotwinyjam

Creaking doors, muffled steps, tired sighs, accompanying an understated and bare dialogue between two individuals (former/current lovers?) going through the same conversation, a cycle unending. The rawness of the words, enhanced by the formatting and timing of its appearance, packs a very emotional punch.

Friends vs Friends: Coffee Talk, by PRINCESS INTERNET CAFé
Life’s too short not to enjoy it, June 23, 2023
Related reviews: neotwinyjam

In the vibes of 80-90s video games, with tv effects, this binksi entry spans a short time, just enough to share a drink and catching up. The mundanity of the discussion coupled with the bright art is strangely nostalgic and warm. And the end is so very lovely… reminding us that life is too short, that we should enjoy the present, and that we should do things that make us happy…

Keeping out of the…, June 23, 2023
Related reviews: neotwinyjam

A cyclical poem of trying to read/understand a note written in Romanian(?) - using links to reveal its translation. There is a strange air to this entry, a lot of unsaid and hints…
You are supposedly content with the work…
…and I was left confused…
Very much Kit's brand of trippy!

You Could Stay Here Forever, by KnightAnNi

Exploring a soon-to-be-gone building, June 23, 2023
Related reviews: neotwinyjam

Through its soft but uncomfortable sound and its bare description, this entries does a good job of building and eerie atmosphere. You are truly alone there, and you should probably leave, but you find yourself questioning if you should maybe stay…

Not a Diamond Necklace, by Andrew Schultz

Get the free advice where you can…, June 23, 2023
Related reviews: neotwinyjam

A short story in two acts: during your teenage years, when an older student gives you some advice, and later as an adult, meeting with that now-adult student and catching up. Strange form of prose. Confused thoughts during reading.
A strange take on “The Diamond Necklace” (“La Parure” - Maupassant)…

Tamagotchi… but make if IF, June 23, 2023
Related reviews: neotwinyjam

… and kind of meets Pokemon too.

CozmoPets is short and simple. Care for your pet, watch it grow, play some games, and get an ending. There are four pets to find and three endings to get, which depend on your actions. (I think the mini-games are random? Whether you win or not is by chance?)

The graphics and animations are sincerely delightful! I starved my pet, gave it unhealthy food, destroyed its psyche…

Overall, had a fun time!
