1/100

Welcome to 001 This is a silly game. To celebrate the end of Pride Month, you can play this nonsense. I'm making it in 30 minutes. So, with the pomodoro timer running, lets begin. [[Start the Game]]

Pick a gender. [[Male]] [[Female]] [[Other]]

You are a man. Yay. Are you ready to participate in the patriarchy? [[Yes!!!]] [[Yes, but with less enthuiasm]]

You are a woman. Are you ready to create a matriarchy? [[No]] [[Maybe]]

Congratulations, you've found the main story line. [[How?]] [[Why is it here?]]

YAY PATRIARCHY!!! Just a few questions before you can enjoy your patriarchal dividends.... How tall are you? [[6.0+]] I'm a [[Short King]].

Well, you're here now so, may as well make the best of it. Just a few questions before you can enjoy your patriarchal dividends.... How tall are you? [[6.0+]] I'm a [[Short King]].

Why not? A matriarchy could be fun.... like the 2023 Barbie Movie.... or something....

Next question..... How athlectic are you? [[Fairly athletic]] [[Why does that matter?]]

Can you play a sport professionally? [[What has that got to do with being a man?]] [[I'm a professional athlete]]

Money!!!! But, it's just one way to make money. How about this, are you a ruthless blood thirsty capitalist?? [[Of course, "Shark in the water is how you find me."]] [[Not really]]

Yay, you won!! Your prize: Being depressed in your 50's when you age out of competitive play, all your ex wives hate you and your kids only seem to love you for how much money you can give them Try again. [[Start the Game]]

Yay, you won. Your prize: Money, even as you oversee the world burning down.Here's what they don't tell you, the bunker you built won't save you from the world your destroying.... at least not in this life time. Try again. [[Start the Game]]

So what kind of man do you want to be? What do you expect to get out of masculinity if you're not athletic or rich? [[Happiness]] [[Love]]

Fair enough. Do you think you'll find your happiness in the constraints of patriarchy? [[Maybe?]] [[I don't think so.....]]

What is love to you? [[Care]] [[Control]] [[I'm open to exploring and finding out.]]

Maybe?? Sounds half hearted to me... Maybe think about it some more.... I'm out of time so, this snippet ends here. [[Start the Game]]

Then why'd you pick this path?? [[Because it was the choice you gave me.]] [[I don't exactly know]]

I also let you pick a less enthusiatstic choice....... But since your here..... Here's a secret...... I don't know anything. I'm just a person making a game on my laptop with a timer running. And I'm almost out of time. So here's what I'll say: "Enjoy yourself." That's all. Life is too short to be miserable.... or something... Idk, sometimes my therapist is helpful and other times it's like they're reading off of a script that was written by someone else. That's all. [[Start the Game]]

Welcome to confusion. You don't know and I don't know either. I'm making this game on a timer and I'm out of time. I hope you figure out why the patriarchy is so important to you. [[Start the Game]]

Do you care? Who do you care about? [[Him]] [[Her]]

REALLY??? Sounds... concerning?? But also I'm not someone in a position to offer any deeper philosophical truths. If love is control to you, then you may need to unpack that with a trained professional... which I am not. Best of luck with that. Good bye. [[Start the Game]]

Who would you want to explore with? [[Him]] [[Her]]

Do you love him? [[I do]] [[I don't know, does it matter right now?]]

Do you really? Or is she just a prop to prove your worth to other men? [[I love her (As any man should)]] [[I wouldn't say she was a prop.....]]

Then what is she.... Ultimately I don't know her, or you. I'm just a game designer on a timer. Goodbye. I hope you sort out whatever is going on with you, so that you don't hurt her. [[Start the Game]]

I wish you the best in your love under patriarchy. I hope you respect and hold space for her and tht your love continues to bloom I don't know you and I am no authority, I am just a person trying to make a game in 30 minutes. Thanks for playing. [[Start the Game]]

That's so beautiful. I genuinely think that there is no emotion more beautiful than love. I hope that no matter where the love takes you, you'll always remember the joy that you found in it. I wish you and your love all the love in the future. Happy pride. Good bye. [[Start the Game]]

Maybe, maybe not. Are you even looking for love, or do you just want to have fun? I guess you'll figure out what you want. I don't know you nor am I an expert on love. I'm just a dumb game designer on a stupid timer. Enjoy the rest of pride. Good bye [[Start the Game]]

Whoops, I'll make a separate game for the women... I unfortunately ran out of time. I have about a minute left on the timer. I'm sorry that I didn't start with you. I over estimated my capacity and you suffered for it. I am sorry about that truly. [[Consolation]]

How do you feel about being a woman. I remember being one.... I loved it. I still do love it. I hope that you do too. It's sometimes hard to be a woman, but there is also a beauty and a light here I feel. I hope that you spend your year surrounded by love and peace and joy. To a happy future, good days and delicious food. If you don't mind, maybe you can try the male run through... just know that I can't promise quality. In fact I can promise it's probably shit, but it is something so..... [[Start the Game]] Jump straight to [[Male]] But I also understand if you don't want to play that run through.. Good bye and I wish you all the joy in your future.

Soooo..... I ran out of time on my pomodoro timer. I'll make a separate game for you. For now here's my apology. [[I'm sorry]]

I'm sorry that I didn't prioritise you in the game making. I felt like I had so much I wanted to say, but I ran out of time. I hope that the rest of your pride is beautiful and filled with love and community, whether in person or virtually. Sending you all the love. Sincerly, The Game Designer. If you want to try another run through. [[Start the Game]] Specifically, the [[Male]] run though is kinda finished. But I also understand if not. Good bye and all the love in your future.
