The Northern Passage [WIP] @northern-passage

The Northern Passage is an 18+ horror dark fantasy CYOA, where you play as a monster hunter sent up north to investigate a series of missing people along the border and in the port cities of the Blackwater.

Working with your handler, Lea, you will travel north and discover that things are far worse than you ever could have imagined, and that there is something powerful lurking out in the deep, dark sea…

Blood Choke [WIP] @blood-choke

In Blood Choke, you play as a reawakened vampire, with no memory of who you are or what you did to result in your entombment. Fumble your way through your first few days after waking up in a strange, overwhelming future– meet new friends and reunite with an old flame.

Navigate this new world and try to piece your past back together before it can catch up to you– and decide your future, before it’s too late.

DREAM EATER [WIP]

A medieval vampire story.

ONE DAY HIKE

A brief interactive fiction where you revisit an old, familiar hiking trail and recount the memories that you’ve tried– and failed– to leave behind.

Bleeding Heart

In this 27k~ adult interactive gothic horror novel, guide Cecilia Coburn through a night of horror and self-discovery as she flees from both her overbearing brother and her soon-to-be husband, desperate to seek help in the only place she will find it– the halls of the abandoned castle deep within the witch’s wood.

a game about waking up your wife. made for the queer vampire jam 2026

1349. Plague has arrived in your small, secluded village in the mountains.

Many pray to God for mercy, including the people of your village. But generations of isolation have sustained older traditions. An older god. The Pale Lady, once known as the White Wolf, protects your village from accusations of heresy, and has shielded your people from violence and war for as long as you can remember.

All she asks for in return is a dreamer - once every ten years.
When she sends her knights into your village after a long, uncertain silence - in which many of your fellow villagers have died or fled - some are hopeful that, at last, your punishment has ended. 

Chosen by the Pale Lady, you are whisked away, up the mountain and into her grand keep. But even inside the high walls of Wolfenstone, the plague lurks, along with an infectious hunger like you’ve never felt before….

Dream Eater is my entry for Queer Vampire Jam 2026! Set during the outbreak of the black plague, you play as a young woman from a small, isolated village vaguely situated in southeastern Europe.

This is a (mostly) linear game, with three romance options (in order as pictured): Yoss the knight, the Pale Lady, and Una the bloodmaid. It’s currently playable through the end of Part I of V. Content warnings are included in the game.

Play it here!

I have finally, finally broken my twenty year curse of unfinished text games. Thank you, Queer Vampire Jam!

Mysterious Mansion by Raecchi

Classic CYOA-Style Story

itch.io

You arrive in a small town in search of your friend and fellow monster hunter, Darin. They vanished after sending you one last text about a mysteriously appearing mansion, and now you’re standing outside it. If they’re in there, you might be able to rescue them… assuming you can stay alive long enough to find them.

A Twine story in the style of a classic Choose Your Own Adventure book, but queer-friendly and appropriate to readers in their late teens and up. There are mentions of sexuality and endings where the player dies, but neither in graphic detail. I am hoping to include a more robust set of content warnings in the future, but for now, please read with caution if you have any serious triggers. The player’s gender is not referenced at any point, but they are assumed to be allo- or at least Darin-sexual. :)

Thank you to my lovely beta readers for pinch-hitting this thing and my friends for cheering me on. <3

In Sanguine Veritas

Ten feet from you, ten feet and thirty years down the path, she stops. Lifts her head. You can hear her breathing. See, delirious and ecstatic, the flutter of her pulse in her bared throat. She’s taken off her scarf, sweating in the frosty air, and her shoulders heave. Camphor and ambergris, the smell of the wet, dying earth. A hint of smoke, of sulfur beneath. You lick your lips, and watch her yellow eyes narrow.

Thirty years after disappearing in the night, a body finds its way home.

Content Warnings:

• Blood
• Plague

Announcing the third Queer Vampire IF Jam!

This is a month-long game jam that will run from January 10 - February 20th, 2026. The goal of this jam is to create more interactive fiction games about queer vampires, focusing both on queer relationships and queer experiences, and exploring them through various vampiric narratives.

Check out our 2024 entries here, and the 2025 entries here!

🦇 🥀 🕯 🪦 🩸 JAM RULES 🩸🪦🕯🥀🦇

1. Your project must focus on queer characters and vampires. Relationships, romantic or platonic, as well as queer experiences, whether gay, lesbian, bisexual, ace, aro, trans and nonbinary - this is an inclusive jam. 
2. You can write from a human or vampire perspective (or both!) The vampire is a versatile tool, and you are not restricted to any one specific depiction of it.
3. This jam will accept any program/medium, so long as the work is an Interactive Fiction.
4. Interactive Fiction is hard to define, so in this instance as long as the game is recognizably interactive fiction - the game has a narrative focus primarily with text, and the player can interact (whether that be with direct choices, clicking through links, or allowing the player to choose how to move around and interact with the world/the game, like in bitsy) then it counts. Parsers, visual novels, choose-your-own-adventures are some of the popular examples of IF, but there are plenty that don’t fall within any category, and we’re not interested in trying to police a rigid definition. I suggest checking out past entries and browsing the IF tag for examples!
5. This jam will accept adult content as well as games covering heavy & uncomfortable topics, but please be sure to properly list trigger warnings either in-game or on the game page.
6. Entries that promote any kind of bigotry will not be accepted.
7. Games should not include any AI generated content. This includes both art and writing.
8. There is no language requirement; we will accept games in any language.
9. You can submit as many entries as you’d like.
10. You are allowed to start working on your project early! This is unranked and it’s not a contest, this is just for fun.

Submissions open midnight, January 10th EST. They’ll close February 20th at 11:59pm EST. 

A few possible resources for creating Interactive Fiction:

• Twine
• Ink
• Ren'Py
• Bitsy
• Inform 7
• Narrat
• Choicescript

Hosted by me, @nyehilismwriting, and @damnation-if

Iphigenia gets more than her blood sucked in this visual novel homage to the sleaziest of 1970s lesbian vampire movies.

my entry for the 2026 queer vampire game jam is up! Blood drips from the mouth of Sappho is a short kinetic eroge where even the vampire gets neck bites.

download for linux/win/mac over at itch.io or my site ^_^

i commissioned @fat-rolls-frictions to draw the three LIs from my vampire jam project, Dream Eater. in order: Yoss, the knight; the Pale Lady; and Una, the bloodmaid.

(fun fact: the frames are gothic style, as the game takes place in the late medieval period. Maggie did a fantastic job designing them!)
