Pick Your Gender hit 600 plays!!
The wonderful comments I've received mean so much to me. It's such a personal game, and I can't express how moved I've been to see other people connect with it so deeply, whether or not they're trans masc, or even trans!
Thank you for all of your support!
Screenshot of the Analytics page of the game Pick Your Gender on itch.io. It shows 1,190 views, 24 downloads, and 600 browser plays.

Happy Bisexual Visibility Day to my favorite skrunky little oc, Felixe!
He's bi, nonbinary/trans masc, pronouns he/they (primarily uses he but does not use masculine honorifics)
A chibi style scruffy man with glasses and a large backpack. He looks tired. Credit to questionartbox for the commission Two sketches of a tired looking guy wearing glasses, a hoodie, jeans, and a backpack. His hair is ruffled and he has a 5 o'clock shadow. The first sketch has him moving forward with the caption "aight, Imma head out" The second sketch has him looking off to the side with one eyebrow raised with the caption "mm-kay" A chibi-esque head of a tired looking guy with glasses, reddish-brown hair, green eyes, and a 5 o'clock shadow. In addition to tired, he looks unimpressed or perhaps tired of your bullshit specifically. A mood board In the center is a picrew of a scruffy man with red hair and green eyes holding a book and a pen Top left: paper and pen Top center: fire Top right: disembodied eyes Center left: a book filled study Center right: a disembodied smile Bottom left: a hall of mirrors of different shapes and frames covering the walls Bottom center: art from a magic the gathering card (I forgot which) of inhuman looking people seemingly being puppets. They have what looks to be a white mask for a face Bottom right: a military medal

Since I guess today is the rapture, y'all should read my Homestuck fic, Rapture!
It's marked as incomplete, but it really can be taken on its own (more info in thread).
I think it can be understood even if you don't know anything about Homestuck!

Happy TDOV to my beloved trans characters!
Primarily:
Karkat from Bondless Prince, Bloodless Knight, my medieval dirkkat au (archiveofourown.org/works/225520...) (trans man, he/him)
and
Felixe from my interactive fiction game, Caedes (ambrolen.itch.io/caedes-short...) (trans masc/nb, he/they)
Picrew of a stocky, frowning man. He has tan skin, disheveled dark brown hair, and thick black eyebrows that are slightly pinched together. He is wearing dark armor with a blue shirt underneath. Picrew of a white man with disheveled reddish-brown hair, square glasses, green eyes, and reddish-brown patchy facial hair scruff, like an overgrown. He has pierced ears, and is wearing a white tshirt with a black collar, a olive green zip up hoodie, and blue jeans. His hands are on his hips and he's holding a pencil in one hand and a notepad in another. There is a satchel slung over one shoulder. His nails are painted black.

Today is International Transgender Day of Visibility! Our team believes in creating beautiful games that can be played by everyone, with characters everyone can relate to. Here's a small gift from us to mark the day -- but head out over to our Love & Pies socials pages for a special character highlight on one of our non-binary characters, Robin!

The preview showed the image but it's not showing up here which I guess is fine because when I linked it in my server it showed the wrong image 😭
Anyway here is what should have been the preview image!

If this is your sort of thing... Keep an eye on this account for updates about my interactive fiction game, Caedes :)
Tumblr post by orcbara: Too many stories about turning yourself into a monster as a metaphor for pretending to be something you aren't and losing yourself in the process. Not enough stories about turning yourself into a monster as a metaphor for choosing to openly embrace yourself even if it's strange to other people. Any time the conclusion of the story is "and then he turned back to normal because what really matters is being true to yourself and being loved for being who you really are: a boring human," I hear a spongebob boo-womp. can you tell I'm autistic by the way?
