Meeting my weird parents-in-law: Aïcha

Made for Yuri Jam 2021.

NOTE FOR THE WEB VERSION: The game isn't meant to be played on phones. You might encounter different issues with the web version: one of them could be about the music being delayed. In that case, just wait a bit. Another one could be a javascript error: in this case, please change your web browser (Mozilla Firefox doesn't seem to encounter this issue).

Ready for a hell of a ride?

Aïcha is an Algerian lesbian Muslim woman living in France but, more importantly, she is deeply in love with her supportive and wonderuful girlfriend, Judith. And what happens when a relationship has been healthy for long enough? Exactly: you meet your parents-in-law! But what is the outcome to expect, when they are white, catholic and racist?

Spend the worst day of your life but hey, at least your girlfriend doesn’t buy their shit either, so… it’ll make your love grow bigger???? (Oh god, it sounds so lame…)

Gorgeous sprite artwork by Narcissus!

The fantastical amount of 40-45 minutes of gameplay! (… trust me, that’s enough)

Make your own choices to make this meeting your own!!!!!! (Like in most visual novels lmao)

3 logical, coherent, realistic and well-written different endings! (Cause if it were three times the same one… it would be less satisfying, right?)

4 characters… nah, I wouldn’t say they are lovely but hey at least Judith is supportive?????? (and who knows maybe there is another character????)

A tremendous amount of really mature jokes! (A great occasion to succeed in the “Try not to laugh challenge”!)

The French touch (oui oui bonjour voulez-vous vous tirer une balle avec moi ?)

AN UNEXPECTED PLOT TWIST WHICH MAKES IT A HORROR GAME THAT’LL MAKE YOU SWEAT (that’s fake news)

Someone who enjoys writing game with soul-crushing plot twists and with meaningful stories. I put high focus on character development in my work… so what did I make this game? Well, the answer is fairly simple, really:
hehehe funny

Well, nothing in particular, just what to expect from racist and homophobic people. But even so, the game is written so that the parents look ridiculous, dumb and absurd. Long story short: nobody takes them seriously, not even the game, and their words can’t reach what’s pure and true: love.
