Neo-Twiny Jam 2026
A game jam from 2026-05-31 to 2026-06-30 hosted by manonamora, Autumn Chen & Lapin Lunaire Games. Create a tiny Interactive Fiction piece in
Returning for a 4th edition!
The Neo-Twiny Jam is an interactive fiction game jam with one primary rule:
Don't write more than 500 words.
Any type of Interactive Fiction is welcome, from any kind of IF system/format, regardless of genre/theme.
Other rules:
Unlike the original Twiny Jam, you can use any program/medium, as long as the piece can be considered Interactive Fiction (i.e. the game is interactive, and its focus is on the text).
The Jam is open to any language, as long as the word count is respected.
Sounds, graphics and code are not included in the word count.
Entries can have NSFW content, as long as you indicate it in your submission.
You must credit any asset used.
No AI/LLM generated content, incl. game cover/title card.
No Hate/Spam submissions.
The Neo Twiny Jam will run from June 1st 2026 (3:00 PM PDT) to June 30th 2026 (11:59 PM PDT).
The inspiration for this jam comes from Porpentine's Twiny jam, which ran in 2015. During the original three-week jam, creators were asked to submit a Twine game with no more than 300 words.
As in previous years, we will be matching the number of entries into a donation to an LGBTQ+ charity. This year's chosen organisations include Point of Pride, Campaign for Southern Equality, and Transgender Law Center. Please contact us if you would like to donate as well.
Join the Jam!
We will track entries on Tumblr with the #neotwinyjam, but you can also tag @neointeractives/@neo-twiny-jam!

Every time I attempt to type up the about section of Trans Otome Jam I feel a little like a headless chicken
I can do it. I can write a chapter. I am capable of putting sentences together. I know what a comma is. I am Aware of the Character.
This is an INTEREST FORM for a potential Steam festival for asexual devs and games with asexual characters. Do note that this is NOT an offi
Hello, all! I am currently gauging interest for a potential Steam festival this fall for games from devs on the asexual spectrum and games that feature characters on the ace spectrum! Please fill out this form if you have a game that applies and would be interested!
Games from devs on the asexual spectrum
Games with (confirmed) characters on the asexual spectrum
Games with asexuality as a core theme or major topic
(Note: You only need to hit one of the criteria above! Though of course you can hit 2 or even all 3! I'm presently looking for wide interest. If I end up needing to set a preference for 2+ of the criteria that will only be later on if I'm inundated with submissions, but I have no idea how many I may end up getting.)

hi! maybe you know me or maybe you don't. i'm an aging disabled genderqueer who has been living on this site for ages. i've shat posts, written poems, made music & videos too. i also host a few tumblr communities like my book club.
i have been unable to work for a while & am currently surviving in a low income apartment with help from family support, weekly plasma donations, commission orders & pawning old items. i am in a tighter spot than ever now with little help from assisted living services so far.
if you have enjoyed anything on this blog & want to help me live:

Also I have a bad habit of going wild with colors so you can get the version that isn't headache inducing as well lol
BELATED MAY UPDATE OOPS
HELLO, I wish I could say circumstances have changed, but alas, I'm still working 6 days/60 hours a week until the end of this month. Aka, I still have zero free time.
That said, I updated all my pages to reflect my current work 'hiatus' (in quotations because I'm still ever so slowly chipping away at things). I also updated my dev intro page during downtime at work. I'm still amazed I have 11??? finished games already. Granted they're all short, but that's still so many and I never even realized I'd hit that number already.
And speaking of games, Burning Academia is now in the coding/editing stage. Granted, I had like, half the chapter coded in already, but with the rewrite of the Student Government route, some things need to be changed throughout the chapter. Regardless, WRITING IS DONE FOR CHAPTER 4 FOR REAL!!!!!! I have zero promises when I'll be able to get all the coding done on the grounds I am Never Home currently, but that's literally all that's left to do lol as well as some editing.
I love chapter 4 a lot overall tbh, but I will not lie, I'm so glad to be done with it alkdfja And once chapter 4 is done, I'll also be uploading Rhea's backstory as is tradition. It's been sitting in my draft for a million years at this point, and once that's posted, all the RO back stories will have been uploaded! :> I've been posting them on tumblr/on itch as posts, but since I have a page for all the bonus stories, I was wondering if I should put them on there as well, just so they're all in one place and easier to access? I'm debating on it, though, since they're not interactive in the slightest lol We'll see how I feel when we get there!
The goal is to finish up coding this month (again, no promises, I love my job but working in healthcare is a vortex consuming all your free time), and that way I can also finish up the last bits and bobs for the new Spring Boy demo because that's also been haunting me since...............................2023...............
We don't need to talk about it, but hey, at least all I have to do for that is finish drawing the backgrounds and like 3 CGs, toss them into ren'py and that'll be ready to go! I have all the art assets done as thumbnails, it's just being able to finally sit at my computer to draw them at this point. Again, I'll have more free time in June! And if I manage to actually get that done, I'll be able to submit the new demo to Otome Jam this year!
Lastly, I've been setting up the game jam page for Trans Otome Jam. It's set to begin all the way in November, so we got a lot of time until then! I have no idea how to set up a jam page or make it look good, but I'm working on it lol it'll also be around a month long, which I'm hoping is a good enough time frame for everyone! If enough people join, I might make it an annual thing, but for now, here's just another reminder that it exists at all. When it gets closer to November and the page is officially set up and published, I'll be doing my best to advertise it more!
So yeah, that's my update going into the month of May. Basically, things are happening, even if it's been slow going. I personally cannot wait until I have 2 days off again and have time to be creative again. For now though, May will be another slow month, and I'll try my best to finish up coding Chapter 4. Until next time!
What if instead of doing anything I'm supposed to, I go and make a mermay piece for my 4 (???) year old otome game Memory Ghosts
Opening my author email these days really is just some variation of "hello influencer, we have noticed your [product] and that you are very good at it. We would like to talk to you about a way you can expand your audience using our unique subscription service training people how to self publish there book," and that's great and all, but I'm doing that shit for free.
Anyway, in light of Draft2Digital implementing fees for new authors or authors who do not make the yearly threshold of sales (I get why they're doing it, and it's still less expensive than Ingram by a country mile. But it still sucks for the people affected by it and it will drive more people to Amazon :/), you can publish your digital media directly through Kobo.
They do not offer paperbacks or hardbacks at this time.
But their digital market has the same e-book and audio market reach as D2D/Ingram and allows for library lending. So if you are an indie author who was mostly using D2D for that library access, and for whom the maintenance fees would be prohibitive against your earnings, you can use Kobo for free.
I haven't used it, because I'm not affected by the D2D fees and I didn't want to mess up my market listings by having duplicates, but when I heard about the D2D fees, I started researching so I could hopefully find a free alternative with comparable market reach. And good old Kobo was there.
Anyway. Hope that helps someone.
Also, to any authors still using Kindle Unlimited, I'd highly suggested thinking about moving over the Kobo+.
It allows for the same subscription model as KU, but doesn't enforce an exclusivity clause, so you can still mass sell through the global market and also be hosted in libraries.
I know it seems risky when KU is so established, but Kobo+ subscriptions are increasing quite a bit as even the most stalwart of Kindle fans get sick of Amazon, and my Kobo+ numbers are starting to eclipse Kindle, which is delightful.
The more we as authors push readers to Kobo+, the more freedom we'll have, so I think it's a worthwhile endeavor, for us and them.
Anyway, that's your two bits of free indie advice for the weekend.
