Tachygram: a game about teens posting

I finished my entry for the Try Something New Game Jam; introducing Tachygram! The whole point of the jam was to try something new, and in this one I focused on a few things:

  • Try out Twine
  • Writing my first interactive fiction
  • Making a game in cohost???

I doubt it's the first game to use cohost as its framework, but I'm still proud of what I came up with! If you find any bugs :eggbug:, feel free to comment on this post and I can look into them. Later on I'd love to go into a post mortem on some of the challenges trying to make an interactive fiction work in cohost if there is interest, but for now you can play the game at https://cohost.org/tachygram/!

EDIT: Sigh. Well, I guess if this dumb post is going to do Numbers™, I'd better do it properly.
