The Cave Of Questioning
A downloadable game for Windows
Wander into the Cave Of Questioning. Try and figure out what's going on.
Hello! This is a game I made for the QRM jam / Queerly Represent Me's jam / "Queerly Representing the Underrepresented" (which seems to be the actual jam's name. It is based on dialogue I've had with friends since a short while. It's been less than a month ago that this stuff really started for me, and it's rather personal. I don't really know if I should refer to the player character as "you" or "me" as a result.
Walk around the cave and talk to the people there. Maybe they can help {you? me?} figure out what is going on.
-----
Since I've not figured all this stuff out yet I have no idea what this (and I) exactly falls under. There's intimate/lewd-ish stuff in this. I hope you don't mind. As is usual with jams this is unfinished, and also doesn't have as much *stuff* as I'd have liked. I did miss out on 2 of the jam's days. There's not much in the way of placeholders until you get to the post-convo options. Otherwise it's quite obvious the cave doesn't look much like a cave so far.
The controls are explained in-game (and if you have trouble reading that text, the rest of the game is probably not going to fare well either) but regardless here they are again:
WASD/ZQSD - move
F - talk to NPCs
G - end conversation
Space - switch sex
M - mute what little sound is there
N - switch between QWERTY and AZERTY keyboard modes (game starts in WASD)
R - reset game
Thanks to GMS2's way of doing distribution (need a machine running the target OS for Linux or Mac. HTML5 export is prohibitively expensive for me) I can only offer a Windows build, but I also have uploaded the entire project source.
Please enjoy this, in whatever way you do. Also let me know if you have any opinions.

While there are some unfinished things, as you pointed out, I felt the game to be a... Personal and interesting experience? I don't want to seem shallow or maybe overstep too much so I'll just say I definitely liked it, it's well made and good luck with your journey wherever it may take you.
