Just Tell Us What's Going On
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
You've sat your parents down, and you're finally going to tell them that you're a transgender girl. Here's to hoping it all goes off without a hitch!
CW: misgendering, deadnaming, suicide mentions, and a very cringey H*rry P*tt*r joke that aged like milk
This game was made over the course of a month for NaNoRenO 2018!

This was brilliant btw. So so random, but wholesome too. I laughed so hard. So glad I randomly found this. My only minor complaint is that there is no music.
I called her Amira btw
I see the message you were trying to get across in this game, and it's really smart how you had each of the parents confess something before the kid finally did, and how the mom had already known that the kid was trans. The only thing I have to complain about is the delivery, I'm just really confused about Terrance... Other than that, I really liked it. And I love how when I typed in my name as Helena, which is my actual name, it thought I was you!
what.... I just,,,,, okay :D
I have no idea what the hell I just played but it was great. I loved that :)
not at all what i expected but still incredible nonetheless
That was the most absurdly adorable game ever, I was not prepared but I think that's a good thing.
I was expecting something VERY different. I was expecting either a heartwarming story about an accepting family or a tragic story about a girl getting kicked out. I can very confidently say it was neither of those. I was absolutely shocked when The Thing happened. I wasn't sure if I wanted to keep playing because it seemed too insane to be a good game. But it was so clever and amazing and I actually had to stop playing at one point because it made me so emotional. I absolutely love this and cannot express how much you all need to play this game.
Everyone's talking about the ending, and now I'm worried. Is it clever or does it bring the game down into absurdity?
Yes
Absolutelies yes.
Absolutely fantastic and iconic. This is one of the best VNs I've ever played, and probably the best I've ever gotten off of itch.io.
Also, I poked around in the files a bit and noticed that you had a custom textbox in there. Did you want to use it then scrapped it because it wouldn't replace the default one peroperly, or did you change your mind?
Thank you so much, that means a lot! I honestly don't remember the answer to that, but my best guess is that this was my first visual novel, and I was learning Ren'Py on the job, so I may have left some extraneous stuff in there upon learning different ways of doing the same thing and finding some of them didn't work for me. I wouldn't be surprised if I accidentally do the same thing for NaNoRenO this year :P Thanks for playing it!
I swear I had a dream just like this once. xD
Anyhow, this was a pretty funny and heartwarming coming out story with a clever twist.
How do i access it once ive downloaded it
holy fucking shit
This was hilarious and almost cute. I didn't expect it to get crazy like that so brutally, but it was an excellent idea.
This is super great!
This is quite possibly the wildest VN I've ever played, and I've played some crazy shit. Really loved what you did here, amazing job. The only thing I would've wished for would be music and sound effects to supplement the atmosphere - you can find lots of great free resources online.
Well, that certainly went in a different direction.
That... was not what I was expecting. Great work! (^^)
