A Twine story where you call your friends made for the Neo-Twiny Jam and GAMES MADE QVIICK.
This game uses 499 words (based off Twine's word count) and is a half-sequel to Literally Watch Paint Dry. This is probably best experienced if you played Literally Watch Paint Dry but you don't have to. If you think or thought that this game is strange, that is why.

It's an interesting game, this type of game is really cool.
Played through 'Literally Watch Paint Dry' first as suggested, and after playing through both, I'm sorry you've had such crappy experiences with people like William and I hope you know they are the minority (just unfortunately a very loud and annoying minority).
Good job making a Twine game, if you like Visual Novel type games Ren'Py is pretty easy to get into, my game jam game 'Carl' is in Ren'Py too if you need an example. It's about moths! lol
I am mostly fine now, but back in April of 2022, the most recent experience with a “friend” was still fresh in my head, which kind of lead to those feeling going into Paint Dry (and in effect, this game) despite originating as a joke between me and a (different) friend.
On that note, one of my top three favorite games happen to actually have been made in the Ren’Py engine and sort of inspired me to include more lgbt+ characters in my own works so I’m well aware of it. I have tried Ren’Py a few times before, and while I would like to release something on it too, as of right now, my focus on Twine since it’s the engine I am using for the tribute game about my first 5 years of stupid internet content.
