As somebody who is trying to write my first game, I am always reading new games i discover to inspire me. Now i have discovered GIST and it is very similar to what i am trying to do but is better and makes me wonder why i am even bothering.
This game is brilliant!
Thank you! Feel free to use it as a basis for your games
Love this! May I translate it to brazilian portuguese? I can send the file back to you as a .odt
sure, since is CC licensed you can host it by yourself if you wish
Great, thanks! Will translate this and Loner (which is also awesome) and make sure to link to your original pages and profile.
Honored to be translated! Keep me updated
Sigma, the portuguese translation of Gist is up! :) https://srpadilha.itch.io/sigmagistptbr
I'll try to have Loner up tomorrow or Sunday
I added a direct link on the GIST! page, thank you
