I skimmed through the document. Some fun bits! I had no clue what a "solo journaling" game even was, so thank you for introducing this concept! I can see the appeal, but it's not for me. Huge props for delivering on your idea though!

“The Smiling Hill” is an outstanding work that showcases the limitless possibilities of indie games. It offers a unique and profound experience that leaves a lasting impression!

I'm so glad to introduce you to it, @imberny! It's a huge field of TTRPG/tabletop stuff. We make solo journaling stuff about adventures like these or even just IRL encouragement stuff. It's a fun genre to play around in :D

Kudos! This is... Inspiring. I had a blast trying to explain the game to a partner with whom we've played a couple tabletop RPGs, and they were as mind-boggled as I was, this being our first introduction to the genre. I used to be a big big fan of choose-your-own adventure books, and this feels like such an organic step forward (and inward). Definitely checking out your other stuff!

I love this, it's been a while since I had an option for ttrpgs, I had no idea something like this even existed, such a fun experience!
