look behind you! haha there's nothing there April fools!
in honor of the greatest holiday in the world, how do the guys from your games celebrate? who's the pranker (is it trace. it's trace right) and who's the prankee? who goes way too far? who will actually kill you if you even think about doing anything? who is normal about it?who doesn't believe anyone about anything the entire day? so many wonderful options.
HU WAH???
Trace is a prank nightmare and Devin is a straight-faced liar. This is their favorite holiday. Everyone else is suffering terribly.
Sibir’s autism means they take everything at face value if they trust you enough, so today is a nightmare for them. They’d prefer pranks because then they can just walk through them brick wall style, but April Fool’s jokes are going to go right over their head. Lisandro likes this holiday because he can be silly. :) Idali and Teslas are both Machiavellian plotters anyway so — Idali sees April Fools as childish, Teslas is curled up in a paranoia ball in the corner.
Lane and Mattie are engaged in some kind of thermonuclear prank war that goes waaaay too far and results in at least one serious injury and a lot of hurt feelings.
DUDEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! the side stories are so fire!!!!!!!!! i fucking love the one from amir’s perspective they are so interesting the carefully crafted facade of humanity goes hard bro. also marianna the love of my life hi there batting my eyelashes and such things. overall 10/10 i like how all the hunters sit like dogs proving that tracker is the alpha hunter boom game solved. keep going you funky little man! love you don’t explode
Can't wait for people who liked Crush to read Shaitan so they can get a real taste of how deeply unhinged Nazeri can become.

Hello, I'm Wasim from Gaza, in Al-Mawasi specifically... My family and I were displaced from Rafah after hardship, bombing, displacement, and hunger.😭😔
Now we have been away from our city and our beautiful home for 9 months. We have lost our house that my father built stone by stone and he worked 24/7 to build this house. But the occupation destroyed it, and no house remained in my beautiful city remained intact.😭💔💔
We are now living in a tent or semi-tent, which does not protect us from the cold of winter or the rain. Our lives are very difficult.😔😭
Thanks to your donations, we have been able to buy food and flour, and now I am asking you for help to buy a tent that will protect us from the cold of winter. We do not know what it means to sleep because of the extreme cold.🥶
I am the mother of a family consisting of 8 people. I have a little girl who is 14 years old, her name is Farah. Help her to escape from death. She suffers from kidney failure and autism. She is a person with special needs. She has a motor and mental disability. I ask you to contribute to alleviating my suffering. Have a good night’s sleep, as she does not know how to sleep. I live in Palestine. In Gaza City, amidst the horrors of destruction and hunger that are tearing us apart, and the mysterious and terrifying anxiety, there is a lot of sadness and pain in my country, and fear restricts our thoughts every hour. We wonder: Will we die? Will we live? Will my child die from her chronic illness? Are we all going to die? We are truly suffering. Winter will come, and I will not have a shelter to protect my family
I am a patient with autism and chronic kidney failure. Please, you are my only hope.
I hope to live a decent life and enjoy support and help. The inevitable death befalls me, my family, and my little girl every time and day. She needs permanent treatment, medicines, detergents, diapers, and special food. Kidney disease is a chronic disease to escape dialysis. I have no ability to buy her needs. I am tormented by staying in the hospital permanently. The kidneys evade potassium and air. A dangerous element that leads to death and cardiac arrest
I have been living with an early awareness since her birth of the inevitability of death from this disease, accompanied by the fear of waking up to losing her and losing her life. My little girl is certain that she is heading towards death in the absence of treatment possibilities and the availability of her requirements and that the expected end of her illness journey. I ask God for everyone who helps me not to complain of pain. Sickness, you do not know it. When sickness visits you, the world becomes smaller before your eyes, and all your wishes become insignificant in the face of health, and to see your child playing and enjoying good health. I am looking for someone to help me to alleviate the painful reality. We are suffering from my heartbreak for my sick child. She is lost before my eyes, and my homeland is devastated.
My life before the war was more beautiful. I hope that this pain and injustice that we are exposed to will end. I have the right to live in safety.
Vitted pleas help this family my friends shahd in the city Gaza🍉.
Vetted by association by vouch of Nurse Rehamo
New account is shahdgaza6
I am speaking on behalf of @eslamfa1, who has her own campaign for her and her family so they may survive under the harsh conditions in Gaza. She is very thankful for all the support she's had, but she needs more help.
She has asked me to host a fundraiser for more of her family, namely for her parents and siblings who desperately need funds for food, water, and medical treatment. They have been displaced multiple times and have only been able to contact Eslam through an unreliable internet connection.
Here is their story as written by her sister, Aya:
"Hello friends, we will tell you our sad story
I am Aya, an outstanding high school student. I was very happy to be on the verge of achieving my dream of finishing my school studies and achieving what I aspired to, which is to become a doctor.
My family of 8 and a beautiful cat named Katie were living a beautiful and peaceful life, each of us striving to achieve our dreams.
We had our beautiful house in Khan Yunis. Recently, we were celebrating my sister Heba’s fourth place in the Gaza Strip in the Arabic language recruitment exam. Our life was like material and emotional perfection. We did not feel deprived or lacking anything.
My sister Lina is a university student. Her dream was to become a psychologist to help mentally ill people in the Strip.
My brother Ahmed was the most beautiful gift from God. He came after 20 years of being deprived of male siblings. After completing his studies, he became a water carrier and took on a great responsibility beyond his capacity.
We also had two little butterflies, the apple of the house, and Jana, the favorites of their teachers and friends at school.
Then the war broke out and everything was turned upside down. We were forced to leave the house after quadcopters surrounded us, tanks surrounded us, and we saw death right in front of our eyes, but we miraculously escaped.
We were displaced several times on foot. Feet, then our end was in a tent that did not protect us from the cold of winter or the heat of summer, and there were poisonous insects and scorpions around us, there was no clean water or healthy food, so my family and I got hepatitis and a lot of intestinal infections.
We were shocked that our house was bombed and destroyed and the features of the house disappeared from the face of the earth, so we felt very sad and despair took over us.
Life here in Gaza is expensive, we cannot buy the minimum necessities of life, imagine that the price of a kilo of tomatoes is $50, and the price of a bag of flour is $200, life here is like a famine! My father is a nervous patient and my mother suffers from chronic pressure and they need continuous treatment and medications. We suffer from bringing water from long distances, and from the high prices of food and cleaning materials and water pollution. What we have suffered most in this war is the loss of members of our family, and this is the hardest thing we have been through. We have lost 20 members of our family. Please help us bear the very high cost of living until we evacuate from Gaza and save our lives. The cost per person is $5,000. Help us, you are the only hope left."
These are some of the photos she's managed to receive of some of her family (Aya, Ahmed, Hala, Jana, and their cat) and of the conditions of the areas they've been displaced from and to:
Note: Due to mentioned lack of internet connection, Eslam has not been able to receive more photos yet. There will be more updates to come when, hopefully, more communications are made.
PLEASE DONATE !!!!! Aya, Lina, Ahmed, Hala, jana, and their parents' well beings are at stake! Starting goal is $10,000
So far, there's only been $1,844 donated to Aya's gofundme, and while we are grateful for what we've re4cieved so far it is neither enough to cover the costs of living in the Khan Younis camp nor is it currently accessible!
gfm has been pausing transfers to many Palestinian relief effort accounts, our own included, despite abiding by their guidelines. Hopefully, I will be able to sort it out soon and unpause transfers but in the meantime I've made an additional fundraiser on the much more Palestinian friendly service Chuffed (As I've heard from Eslam).
I know I haven't been actively promoting as I should. I cannot find the words that could best convince you, I can only plead. Please.
GOOD NEWS in that gofundme unfroze money transfers!!!! but donations have been waning the last being two days ago
and with the news that the rafah crossing will be opening we need more donations for aya and her family can safely cross!!! And for continued living expenses as well ofc
Was Greenwarden posted on another site years ago? Just played today, saw Bautista and Nazeri and my brain started shrieking and wailing about how "I've been here before!" like some sort of sleeper agent activation😭 Love your IF!❤️ I vaguely recall younger me being unable to choose between the ROs lmfao, just ended up making multiple playthroughs...
Thank you !! Greenwarden: Alpha was first posted on DashingDon as a ChoiceScript game. I've since split from Choice of Games over creative differences, so Greenwarden is an indie Twine game now. :]
This is your reminder that without eSims, many people in Gaza cannot reach the rest of the world. To their loved ones overseas to the people who have donated to their fundraisers hoping to keep them alive. The Israeli government has issued repeated communications blackouts, trying to cut us off from Gaza. Even when there are not "official" blackouts, telecommunications are dangerous; Palestinians like Medo have died in makeshift tent cafes trying to access the internet and reach us. In Gaza, infrastructure has been severely damaged, despite the brave and hard work of people in Paltel on the ground. Do not think that because you read a headline about a communications blackout ending, eSims are not needed; Israel has already laid groundwork to cut Gazans off from the world - eSims work independent from the Israeli government and can provide data and phone service, an essential lifeline.
If the process of donating an eSim yourself seems daunting, you can contribute to the Crips for eSims fund directly here:
Hi just a small update that we are running beyond our current budget and are in the negatives by $12K CAD. Help us pay all our volunteers back and keep current eSims active!
Keep donating e-transfer: cripsforesimsforgaza[at]gmail[dot]com (auto-deposit on)
Just found your story, and it’s lovely. Thank you for sharing it with the world. :D First time playing was a bit of a shock- I had no clue nb!Nazeri was named Amir! That’s my name!! I’m also a trans Muslim person! (who is, as you so wonderfully put it…loosey goosey about it) It’s amazing to see a character like that handled so respectfully, and I love that they wear hijab. <3
WAAAAAAAAUGH thank you. Extremely important to me that you felt Nazeri was handled with grace and respect.

Over the background are the words "GREENWARDEN: BOOK ONE" in a white stenciled font. The font is slightly smudged. A stenciled canine mouth in halftoned white is closing around the title. /end ID]
New Greenwarden cover!! The old one just didn't have the correct vibes (understandable, as it was a placeholder). Really flexing those graphic design muscles from college.
much to think about
