Bless the Last Ones by Demigiant


I can't make the embedding via Ludum Dare's website work, so you can PLAY IT ONLINE HERE or on ITCH.IO (or download the Win ZIP at the bottom for that sweet desktop flavor).

They were the last ones and you were their dying god. One hundred seconds is all that remained to you. To cause havoc, and laughter, and transformations.
Maybe vampires.
Maybe love.
An absurdist narrative sandbox with lots of variables and multiple endings by:
Daniele Giardini (aka Demigiant) - Game design, writing, coding, music
Jelena Đorđević (aka Jelena) - Art
(The music wasn't made during the jam so it's opted-out)
Content warning: mild nudity, profanity, and some really bad jokes.

Just the mouse. Clickety, click.

It's a bit confusing what you need to do at first and might be too much text for 10 sec (at least for non English readers?
Nice game overall!
@makemakemake Thank you! Sometimes the vampires eats, sometimes it infects, sometimes it promises to behave. But in the end it needs to eat, after all.
@adriangray Thank you! I feel you about the too much text (even if I write a lot of English for my work, I'm a non-native Italian), but I liked the concept of having to choose what to read in the limited time you have, knowing that you won't be able to read it all (I hint at it in the beginning of the game, but maybe I should've hinted it better).
@yoko-san Thank you! It happened :D
@joedev Thank you! There is indeed a lot of stuff and tons of branching hidden in there (for some reason I even added a different ending for every character if they end up alone, even if I know that that's very rare to achieve—oh well).
@ben-throop Thank you Ben! Likewise :D
P.S. Gonna play your games today. It took me a, uhm, while, to realize that I needed to click on the gamepad icon of your profile to see them :eyes:
Karl is my fav
@iguanana Thank you from both of us!
You did a great job with the mood and the pacing, made you want to play a few times to see the different outcomes and monologues. Very nice entry
Overall it was a very cool experience, I really liked all of the characters after playing few times.
