Ancient Gods from the deep cosmos are coming. The invasion is ready to begin. The first spies and heralds are now descending upon the planet to observe, uncover secrets, and prepare the ground. They leave hidden messages that can be read by their peers and probe the spirit of humankind in order to feed upon it.

A true tragedy.

If it weren’t for the fact that, fortunately, the Alien Gods are really very, very small.

This is a very cute game with interesting ideas! I can see myself enjoying this a lot, although the exploration is a little unintuitive (I put the alien spy somewhere and check what objects the random marks on it point to, right?).

On the note of more formal elements: Have you considered condensing the rules to a foldable bookmark? Carrying around the rules + alien with ease?

Thank you for the comment! I actually made it reeeeeeeeeally quickly to be on time for the jam, just basing on an idea I had in my head. I totally would like to dev it, maybe in the next months, and I imagine it on a bookmark for sure.
Originally, there was a pre-made drawing for the bookmark and the alien that should be used, and it helped to point the objects to explore, but it was not efficient and I removed that part. I also had the idea to base all the game on books (so you point at words and phrases and not to real objects) but I didn't like it so much.
Let's see, I do not consider it finished for now :)

Keep working on it during zine month! I think that'd work really well!

Actually, this is a great idea! I will do it!
