Otolith
In 1970, NASA sent two bullfrogs to space in order to test the effects of weightlessness. There was no recover plan for the spaceship or the frogs inside. What do you think these two frogs might have said to each other?
This is an interactive fiction that envisions some potential conversations between these two frogs trapped in space. It is short and sweet, and should take between 5-10 minutes to play.
This is one of my submissions to the 2023 Neo-Twiny Jam! I focused this submission on lots of choices and paths; my other submission, Warriors and Samaritans, focuses more on fitting more story within the 500-word limit of the jam. Thank you to the hosts of the jam, who inspired so much creativity in all the participants!
The soundtrack is available as a download below!

This was really lovely and touching and enjoyed playing through trying to get all the endings. Feel like you've done a really good job with balancing tone of this - not making it too dark or tragic but still creating an apropriately meloncholic mood with some whimsy sprinkled in, and music really helps play into that too. It's a lovely little story, and especially impressive with such a tight word count! Well done!
Thank you, Sleepy! ❤️
