I'm Going to Rockhell

I'm Going to Rockhell is a short RPG that chronicles the "horror" of going home to one's crappy hometown for the holidays. The main character is Morgan: a grad student who hates going back to their notoriously conservative hometown, affectionally named "Rockhell." They are joined by their funny and cute wife, Misha, their quirky childhood best friend, Mat, and their adorable cat (who strangely has a human form when he fights), Moo. Can they make it through the small-town shaped dungeon filled with Karens, bigots, and being constantly misgendered by their parents?

I guess it should be obvious that the game is semi-autobiographical, and that the characters are partially based on some people I know and in real life. But I also took enough liberties that these hopefully are characters who can stand on their own, and who players, especially queer and trans ones, can relate to. Also one of your party members is an adorable cat. 'Nuff said.

Made for My First Game Jam: Winter 2021.
