Hi folks! My first entry is ready. Took nearly 6 hours.
It is an interactive text adventure.
My goals:
- I wanted to get a feeling how hard is is to write a branching story - it escalates pretty quickly: The game is only about 5 minutes long, but has 9 endings.
- I wanted a little stat system, that shows the player how many other players discovered an ending
- I also wanted to write a little interactive fiction engine.

Interesting game! I like the nice smooth transitions between branches. And the sudden transition in font to the 'other' side was awesome.
Typo: You removed the blanked!
Very nice concept, but there aren't a lot of options :/
Hi there, interesting idea. 18.9% saw the ending I reached. Good job!
Very nice change of pace from all the other entries I've seen so far. Not bad at all for 6 hours work, I'd love to see more!
I love the branching story, you made a great job, maybe could be better with some sound effects ?
One of the more interesting takes on the theme, the narration is good, too; yet it's a tad short, and I'm afraid trying to develop this further would make the thing escalate pretty quickly. ^^"

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to place in the final results, you NEED votes. The easiest way to get votes is by rating other games. Judging lasts for 3 weeks following the end of Ludum Dare. For best effect, rate 20 games as soon as possible. Rating more games is encouraged.
MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
very nice game. Different from others good job
