Tinkering with Twine page transitions

I'm just tinkering with different CSS transitions between pages in Twine games.

* Expand.
(These below force the passages to the fixed width of 60em in order for the out-transition to be congruent with the in-transition.)
* Cross-fade.
* Zoom.

I'll edit more into here if I make any.

(The game that is being used is The Sky in the Room.)

And Behind This Door We Got

abtdwg.jpg
Game File: 

So this is just a single level (works with any doom port i guess, you'll need a doom2 wad to play it)
i had this idea of putting weird things behind doors
and you don't know what is behind the door
like maybe it will kill you, maybe it will be a bonus, maybe it will do nothing etc
so it's sort of a luck and memory based thing

GeorgeBall Episode 1: The AntiGeorge

Game File: 

You! You must press space to reflect ball at anti-George and move up and down sometimes!

Wishing you best of luck!

TACTICAL ELEMENT: pressing enter ends the game and saves your score. YOU (you!) must decide wherever you should FINISH THE GAME or PRESS BOLDLY ON AHEAD

(took me a little over 2 hours all up with no planning or collection beforehand from 1-3:20 with a quick break to put the washing in the dryer)

Insecurities and a need to create

smile.gif

Sometimes I find myself staring longingly at itch.io

I scroll through, looking at the beautiful art and programming genius that takes place.

It makes me sad, but also hopeful.

I love making games, more than I ever thought that I would, but a lack of budget, knowledge, and overall skill makes it incredibly difficult.
I feel a constant need to create, but never the ability.
This blog entry is mostly just a ramble;
Some sort of shout into the void.

I feel insecure about what I make.
I feel inadequate.
I feel like I'm spinning in circles, even though I have only just started taking this seriously.

Ever since I was a little kid, I had a deep fascination for this stuff.
I research and research, never actually applying or learning.
Just longing to create.

I feel hopeless.
I feel petty.
I feel pathetic.

Deep down I know that I am new to this, finally putting my foot down and releasing things that I make. I know I will improve, but don't know where or how to start.

I feel like I should give up.
But I don't want to.

Even recently, when I would lurk on this website for hours, I never thought I could do what some of you do.
And yet here I am. I can't say that what I make is good, or even passable, but Glorious Trainwrecks makes me feel like it is.

I feel accepted.
I feel supported.
I feel loved.

Blog posts tend to not get much attention on this site, so maybe nobody will see this, and maybe that is OK. Just writing this, I feel a little bit better.

You are a Blob! (a SoftSoft Twine game)

Game File: 

This year I decided to enter Ectocomp, a yearly Halloween competition hosted by someone in the IF community (yes, I know this overlaps with the IF Comp, I dunno either). You can read more about it here. I downloaded Twine and everything just for it too.

You are a Blob actually wasn't my first game idea (a choice-based adaption of "Jacked Up Jack-o-Lantern" from the Regular Show Trilogy of Terror 3), but an eight-year-old was getting cold feet about entering, so I vowed to make a game so crappy it would make everyone else's game shine like gold! Which turned out to be no small feat, because everyone and their mother entered a game (or two) this year, for a grand total of 24 entries. But I think I gave it a good run.

If you like this game, please consider downloading (and judging!) the whole set. You can play most of these games through an interpreter like Gargoyle.
