game synopsis:
Eternally cursed with a never-ending hunger, you have fought long and hard to resist the urge to drink human blood. This meant never staying in the same place for too long and never getting attached to anyone. The journey has been a long one, to say the least.
Desperate for a place to rest your aching feet and a meal to quench the unquenchable, you find temporary refuge at a pub at the edge of town that reeks of rat droppings and day-old vomit. Your relief is short-lived, though, stunted by the presence of a vampire hunter sitting beside you at the bar.
Navigating through conversation steeped with fear, friendship, and fatal attraction may be the only way left to keep your head.
Will you be strong enough to fight your primal urges or will you give in to your desire? Perhaps, in more ways than one?
general about:
made for the 2024 queer vampire game jam, me and a handful of creatives got together to make our first game in 25 days! we learned alot in the process, and i think overall it is so exciting to have our efforts be a tangible (metaphorically) thing at the end of it.
i had the honor of working with @vitariesocks as our character artist and character cg artist, diskogoblin on IG for the pub background, and mayacheavwrites on IG for beta writing and for the beautiful game blurb above! i (scryillo/nightjar_nocturne on itch) had the opportunity to work on the game's narrative and code.
in game screenshots:
content warnings for the game include:
blood, biting, general vampire gore described and at times visualized
paranoia, hunger
queer shame, queer guilt, and instances of dysphoria
This is a month-long game jam that will run from January 10 - February 20th. The goal of this jam is to create more interactive fiction games about queer vampires, focusing both on queer relationships and queer experiences as told through a vampiric narrative.
JAM RULES:
Your project must focus on queer characters and vampires. Queer relationships, romantic or platonic, as well as other queer experiences, whether gay, lesbian, bisexual, ace, aro, trans and nonbinary - this is an inclusive jam.
You can write from a human or vampire perspective (or both!)
This jam will accept any medium, so long as the work is an Interactive Fiction.
This jam will accept adult content as well as games covering heavy & uncomfortable topics, but please be sure to properly list trigger warnings either in-game or on the game page.
Entries that promote any kind of bigotry will not be accepted.
Games should not include any AI generated content.
You can submit as many entries as you'd like.
You are allowed to start working on your project early! That's why I'm announcing it now. This jam is unranked and it's not a contest, this is just for fun.
Submissions open midnight, January 10th EST. They'll close February 20th at 11:59pm EST.
