It's Not You, It's Your Trauma
The world's most prosaic isekai.
---
Stuck in an unfamiliar world inside a library that records the entirety of its history through mysteriously magical means, Sammy Baxa must... dust the shelves?
Well, at least she's got a friend to accompany her while she waits for a way back home.
"It's Not You, It's Your Trauma" is a short character-focused game with lots of dialogue and lots of silly faces and just a little bit of drama.

WAAAAHHHH I don't know how I came across this game but it was SO SOO..???? AHHH??? I LOVE IT LIKE SERIOUSLY. I think both Sammy and Cain need a BIIIIIG HUGG!!!!! and the librarian is just chill like that. Anyway GREAT GAME I HAD SO MUCH FUN!! (also I personally relate to Sammy hating on doing the dusting thing, as a person who works at the library themselves I can more than agree it gets SOOOOO boring sometimes (all the time) )
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! i'm so so glad you enjoyed it and thank you again for playing!! :D!! (also i'm so happy the accuracy to real-life library work was present SDJFKLSDF)
NO PROBLEM DUDE THE GAME IS ACTUALLY FIRE
(ALSO YEAH HRKSGVJKVJFVNK)
I just wish the endings were a little more detailed to give proper closure (or well as much closure as possible ) but given is a FIRST Gamejam game I understand why it didn't happen.
10/10 The perfect amount of dust, keep the good work!
Thank you so much for playing my game!!
With hindsight this game definitely plays like a VN more than anything else haha, I had just bought RPGMaker and so wanted to take advantage of it, I guess! In any case, I'm really glad you enjoyed it!!
I was going for a more ambiguous ending-type deal since I have some plans to potentially use these characters in different stories, but I definitely see where you're coming from wrt a lackluster ending, and it's definitely something I'll keep in mind for the future!
Thank you so much again for playing :)
