Be Reasonable: A Political Story

[NeonCowboy]

Hey guys,

I'm pleased to say that I've finished my first Ren'Py project! It's called Be Reasonable, and can be downloaded for free from:

Now, to really get the most out of it, you'll have to read a bit of a backgrounder - a guy here in Toronto, David S. Gallant, was fired from his job with the government for making a very VN-ish type game called I Get This Call Every Day. Indie devs here then rallied around him with #CRAJam, an event where we all made games in support of him.

My entry to that jam is the game linked here.

Here's the full backstory if you're interested:

Basically, the game is about making difficult occupational choices in the present day. It's a little bit funny and a little bit serious.

Most of all, though, it was a great way to teach myself Ren'Py! I love it.

While I still read video game news sites every now and then, I admit that I hadn't heard of this controversy or CRAJam until today.

Did you use images of people you know in real life, or images of the actual video game creators? Also, did you create any choices or gameplay, or did you create a linear story with no choices (for which the term would be kinetic novel)?

There are choices.
