Jam: Twiny Jam for Short Form Twine

If you’ve ever needed the impetus to make a Twine game, now might be the time. Twine author Porpentine (Howling Dogs, With Those We Love Alive, etc) has started up a Twine jam known as Twiny Jam. The jam, which runs from March 26th til April 9th has an emphasis on the short. All Twine games […]

Twine: Orifice Clique

There is a feedback, white noise that comes through my headphones. The light hum of a dryer in the other room. The steadily increasing chill that causes my finger tips to turn white. This is the soundtrack by which I played Orifice Clique, a game by Porpentine commissioned by the Yearbook Office. There are few games […]

Twine: With Those We Love Alive

With Those We Love Alive exists in an altered dream world, a place with empresses who smell like dead candy, whose slick you lick from the floor in seeming devotion, whose bones are picked clean by worms. But beneath this intense surreality, as in many games from Porpentine, is an undercurrent about the reality of […]

Twine: Cis Gaze

I once had to explain to a friend (understanding, but ignorant) about what I understood about the effects of being misgendered. I’m cisgendered, but have encountered many people on the Internet assuming that I’m male so it’s a phenomenon that I’m unfortunately familiar with. He couldn’t explain why it would upset people, being confused for […]

Twine: Penalties

Penalties is not a game of subtleties. It’s unfortunate, because it feels like the intention was to be a bit more nuanced than it appears. Penalties does not invite you to discover the truth behind its blood and destruction so much as it sticks your face in it like a punished cat. Another writer on Storycade […]

Twine: the uncle who works for nintendo

the uncle who works for nintendo plays on several forms of nostalgia, from the 90′s setting to urban myths to childhood fears of the unknown. It’s a horror Twine game, a genre I’m disinclined to normally play with my fear of horror but I was convinced by several friends to give it a try. The […]

News: Anna Anthropy Announces Bundle “Twine and Punishment”

Game developer Anna Anthropy, also known as Auntie Pixelante, has announced a Twine bundle named Twine and Punishment. This is remarkable for two reasons: 1) no one has apparently named a Twine bundle “Twine and Punishment” before and it’s a definite missed opportunity 2) It features a handful of interesting games. Twine and Punishment has […]

A Barbarian at the Gate: Five Ways to Protect Twine’s Village from the Coming Invasion

This guest post is brought to you by Tory Hoke. You can find more from them at their blog and their Twitter. I’m not the most curious pup in the litter. When Michael Lutz’s “My Father’s Long, Long Legs” hit MetaFilter last November and scorched my brain stem, I assumed it was the thousand-hour effort […]

Twine: Depression Quest

This guest post is brought to you by Jonathan Kaharl. You can more from him on Twitter and at his blog.  Depression Quest was something I played out of vague interest one day, and it really surprised me. As a game, it’s fascinatingly simple; the barest of choices made as the sole main mechanic, but […]
