These stories three

Share Collapse

Author Comments

"These stories three" is a set of short stories written in a semi-gothic style, presented in an interactive format.


Each story was informed by a drawing that accompanies it, and the writing style was aimed to emulate a gothic horror style. Having just finished Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" may have pushed me in that direction!


Its worth noting that this isn't a traditional game, more so an interactive way of navigating through separate stories.


As always feedback is welcome!

This is a neat way to portray 3 very short stories. You did a good job writing the narrator to make it feel like you were sitting down for story time, and being asked what story you want to hear; rather than being given a computer menu with a selection of 3 stories.
On the "Choose a tale" screen, I think it might feel more natural if you could also click on the icon below the story name. I instinctively tried to click on the lady herself, rather than the title at first.
The font scaling on this is pretty bad, I can tell that you used a script font for much of the narration and story, but it was badly pixelated.
I think there is a typo in the "Murder Most Fowl" story, I think you meant to write "malignant" rather than "malinant".
I enjoyed the music that you included, it was a good match, but it seems like the volume on this one was quite a bit louder than your other games.
A note about attribution for free/creative commons type stuff: It is a good idea to make sure that the attribution is integrated directly in the project itself (usually on the opening screen, or a separate "credits" screen). Including the attribution statement in the "Author Comments" may satisfy the attribution requirement, but if you were to publish a collection of your work later, and forget to include the original author comments, then you would be using the music/whatever in violation of the license that let you use it in the first place.
