THE CROWD HEAVES
the bass of the music
you can feel it vibrate through your fingertips
warm feeling of rum
sticky on your throat;
ice cracks in the glass
you put lime to your lips and bite
"I really wanted to make a ‘dating sim’ for the Pulse Pounding Heart Stopping Dating Sim Jam and instead of making it about weird and wonderful sexual experiences I wanted to make it about the heart stopping drudgery of being heterosexual in a world where heterosexuals are conditioned not to talk to each other, or listen to each other, or really have any idea what they are doing.

This brought back memories of discovering dance floors in early 2009, but from a very different vantage point. I think this would be a good game to play for anyone who doesn't understand the vulnerability of women in such an environment; those who claim that women hold the power in the negotiation of sex should play this game to walk the precarious tightrope that women face.
