About the Story

A story about high school, grief and too much cut fruit.

My first attempt at making a game in Twine (or really any game at all), inspired by a very personal, yet universally Asian experience. Made for the Single Choice Jam.

A single-choice game about coming of age in an Asian household, August 17, 2024

This game was part of the single choice jam.

It's generally polished; I found no bugs or typos.

The writing is descriptive. It was a primarily linear narrative, due to the nature of the jam, but it works well as such, with a strong story about a half-Asian kid and their mother's attempts to bridge a generational gap.

It had good emotional impact; I know it's based on real life, but even depictions of real life can become one-dimensional. Both characters seemed complex and thoughtful here.

While the interactivity is severely limited, the game made good use of 'blocked out' options to highlight futility.
