Happy pride month!! I love playing video games so I thought it’d be neat to share the many many games I’ve played with nonbinary and trans characters >:3
Sorry in advanced I’m copying and pasting stuff from twitter ;v; Also know that many of these games ARE on consoles, but if you buy them on pc/mac use itch.io if it exists. It gives devs more money!!
VALIDATE!! There’s a demo on Steam and Itch.io that you can play RIGHT NOW and also a patreon you can support and I highly suggest it ^o^ It’s a lovely VN with several playable characters and rlly good writing
Extreme Meatpunks forever is so SO good omg. It’s a VN/mech brawler where u be gay and fight fascists!!! Trans and nonbiney ppl are out here being badass af. The game has cws/tws built into the game ( which i love sm ) Also there’s a ttrpg on Kickstarter RIGHT NOW!!
Another game with nonbinary characters is an rpg called Ikenfell! It was one of my favorite games to play last year and the music and just everything? Honestly so good I’m def replaying it this year. It also has tons of good accessibility features!
ok but i wanna geek abt ikenfell just a smidge more U DON’T UNDERSTAND 3 OF THE PLAYABLE CHARACTERS ARE NONBINARY <333 The strongest playable character also uses ze/zir pronouns and I think that’s pretty epic
Ok so like literally every game I’ve played by @analgesicprod I’ve loved 100% And Anodyne 2? Everyone should go play it and I will keep saying it until everyone does. And yes there’s a trans character in it <3 Drem my beloved <3 Go check it out!!
Another game studio I love is @pillowfightio !!! They worked on Later Alligator, We Know the Devil, and Heaven Will Be Mine. I highly recc all of them but esp. Later Alligator cuz like just look at Joanie. They’re so cool.
In the game Everhood gender doesn’t exist <3 Literally multiple characters are referred to with they/them pronouns and the gameplay is very enjoyable
CW LOTS of flashing lights and I feel like there should maybe be more cws but I’m not sure what else to add :l I guess a warning is that Everhood gets into more serious stuff and I’ll be honest when the game first came out I had to put it down for several days b/c I just wasn’t ready for a lot of that stuff, but I honestly liked the game a lot!
I was debating on adding this bc while I love this game there’s some issues. So Gnosia is like werewolf ( or among us if you will ) but more narrative focused with time loops etc. There’s two wonderful nonbinary characters and you can be nonbinary HOWEVER ( minor gnosia spoilers. skip past if you want to avoid it) . . . For some reason finding out the AGAB of one of the characters is mandatory and I fucking hate that. It’s so unnecessary esp for the world building that’s been done. Also tws for the game: sexual abuse / assault, gore ( in only one scene ) (spoilers end) but yeah I still added it because the characters are so neat and strong for the type of game it is and without that bit I wouldn’t feel so :/ abt recommending it. It’s pretty fun ngl
Wandersong!!! The main character is nonbiney and I love them <33 It’s such a lovely little musical adventure with such a nice narrative and!! Some of the devs just released Chicory ( which I haven’t gotten to play yet ;v; ) but check that out too!!
Bravery Network Online is super fun!! It’s a turn based rpg that feels really good and has two characters that use they/them pronouns ( Fel and Reed ) the character designs are sooo good and the game is currently in early access!
I never thought I’d see a claymation point and click musical featuring a nonbinary detective but Dominique Pamplemousse is just that Need I say more?
A personal fav I think about every now and then is Dad fighter 30XX!! Like who doesn’t wanna beat up their friend’s shitty dad in the parking lot of a dennys?? Also the win music is my FAV
SPIRIT SWAP!!! By @SoftNotWeak !!!! Super chill and pretty game by lovely people with a demo you can play right NOW!! This game makes me want to become a strong magical thembo
The rest of these will be in a list because I’m sleepy
ROM:2064 ( game is amazing but i got mixed feelings tho bc the og devs aren’t getting paid for it i think :/ )

i know its the mets, but this is the coolest shit i’ve ever seen a human being do
Everytime I read Frankenstein, the same line makes me put the book down and stare at the wall. It’s my favorite line in the book; it has its own highlighter color in my annotations. The first time I read it, I literally detoured after my last class just to tell my lit teacher how much I liked the line because I couldn’t wait until second period the next day. Here’s the line:
“Life, although it may only be an accumulation of anguish, is dear to me, and I will defend it.”
This is said by the creature. He wanted to live. He wanted to live life so badly even though he had had such a difficult one. He still loved the song of the birds and the smell of the flowers and the joy in the world even if he never got to truly experience that joy. I just. AHHHH.
He wanted to fight for a life he never got to live.
