Blue Screen of Love is a dating sim that involves you trying to help your OS overcome her fear of the Internet.
BSoL was made primarily using HTML/CSS and Twine. This game was a group effort of Marina Lucio (code/art), Carlos Duralde (story), Ashley Yoon (art), Yael Shapira (story) and Nicholas Zhang (music).

Didn't manage to write a virus to take over the internet ;-)
Enjoyed the dialogue though ;)
This was really good, had me playing through a few times until I won - the first time I didn't realise that I needed to be nice.
What a great game. I had so much fun playing it. Dorothy is great :D
So cute! I made it to the internet :). Great story, and really fantastic interface!
A great game; I really had fun playing this one. I wish it was longer, but given the replayability/multiple endings it's probably about the right length. The dialogue is well-crafted and humorous, and I couldn't help but test out different options to see what would happen. Very well done, guys - Dorothy would be proud!
Dialogue was great. Top notch humor. Played twice and about to play a third time.
WE TOOK OVER THE INTERNET! Dorothy and I are in love forever.
Great game. Really funny! There should be more dating sim style games like this on Ludum Dare!
Really solid entry :D Didn't even feel quite like Twine, really impressed with what you guys were able to achieve with only HTML. Great story as well, really funny xD Dorothy formatted herself on me lol
Awesome. Even computer have feelings. Intresting interpretation of blue scree.
In my game for Compo I have computer too, but it not so cute.
Oh man... this is good. Its beautiful. Its just... *sniffle* so beautiful
Aw Dorothy's so cute :'< It'd have been amazing if she could talk with cute robot sounds <3
The only bad thing I have to say is that reading white text on this bright blue screen really hurts my eyes, maybe you should change the colors a bit?
Really cool idea! Unique take on the traditional visual novel. Even if dorothy won't love me. Great work!
I played it through twice to see the different endings, it was a lot of fun! I'm definitely going to recommend everyone play this!
Neat idea, music, graphics, and use of theme! It reminds me a lot of "Digital: A Love Story."
My only complaint is that the narrative fell on the lazy "jealous girlfriend" trope; that was really jarring and kind of took me out of the story.
Hilarious dialogs and nice touching music. The game is simple bot not as boring as some dating sims. :D
Awesome game. Neat use of the theme overall and I had plenty of fun playing it. Great work! :D
Like the acronym for DOS. Interesting game play. graphics is good so is audio. Good entry, great job
really good game. I like it very much. I like dorothy and the whole idea. very well done.
Had a good laugh playing this game! Could use some more personality types or deviations with Dorothy, but for the amount of time spent, I thought it was very impressive.

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. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
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.
:'( Could not get Dorothy to love me. I'm so sorry. Please fix that. Baby come back. ='(
