A short lyric game for a few game jams, mainly for the 2nd Eternal TTRPG Jam & The Instructions. I finally have an appointment for HRT, which is why I have transitioning on the brain. Enjoy!

Very interesting idea, I don’t know if I’d fully call it as a game but deffo a tool useful for a lot of folks to actually self reflect in a lighter manner.
Congrats for the appointment and I hope to see more overly queer stuff like this!
Bez, homie, you're doin some wild stuff out here. This is the kind of thing I love to see come out of these jams. I'll circle back to this.
First off, I love to see explicitly queer games. This is a wonderful little exploration of what transitioning can mean for you. The check-in-over-time is kind of a staple in the transition process, but this presentation and the questions that are asked really give you a great framework for working out through your feelings.
I will be honest, the black text on yellow background did throw my back to a geocities website when I first opened it, but as I read it, it grew on me. That shade of yellow isn't too harsh on the eyes.
I have a deep love for games that play with the idea of what "game" and "Play" even mean. I've spent a lot of time thinking about ritual and play, as I'm married to a witch and something of an occultist and historian myself. There are those who argue that the process of ritualistic or religious practice is a type of play. We take on roles that have no physical change, but rather induce a temporary of mental change. This piece straddles the line between game and ceremony in a way that I find fascinating.
Bravo Bez! A truly fantastic game!
