About the Story

Step into the shoes of a vampire trapped on a roof. In ordinary circumstances, this wouldn't be so bad... only it seems dawn is fast approaching and there is no escape.

A descriptive and plaintive monologue by a dying vampire, July 17, 2023
by MathBrush
Related reviews: less than 15 minutes

This game has you, an ancient (I think) and powerful vampire, trapped on a roof, dying as morning breaks.

The author does a good job of evoking feeling. There is some minimal use of quickly timed text, which felt appropriate for the story. The character is portrayed with nuance, both bombastic and arrogant but also stoic and resigned.

There is some appropriate music setting the stage. It was brief, as intended for a Neo Twiny Jam game.

An Inescapable Death…, June 23, 2023
by manonamora
Related reviews: neotwinyjam

Trapped outside, a vampire is unable to find shelter moments before the sunrise. At the brink of perishing, they reminisce on their past, envy the birds able to fly away from this situation, and ultimately choose to resign themselves (or not) to their death. The writing paints a colourful tableau between the pain of the injured character unable to save themselves, and the beauty of a simple sunrise, welcomed by the songs of birds. The writing was also quite dynamic and fun, considering the situation.
