Big thanks to @GamesHubDotCom for writing a piece about the incredible games at @prideatplay! 🏳️🌈
⬇️This was a very special moment for us. Seeing the players discuss (and playfully argue) over who to pick at the end has really energised us to continue working on the game 🥹
Pride at Play is an exhibit of 22 contemporary queer games from around the world, now showing at The University of Sydney. Here's why you should visit.

Lilypad Days

In Lilypad Days, you play as Frankie — a down on their luck froggy stuck in lockdown after the animal kingdom is hit with a mysterious virus.
ALT A hero image of the game 'Lilypad Days. The games title features in the middle above a small make, with a lilypad style house behind it. There is a small frog visible in the window, and a rainbow flag visible in the other window. The title of the game is at the bottom of the image, next to a Pride At Play logo.
