Blood & Company

About

Blood & Company is a 3,000-word interactive fiction game where you play as Zach, a 23-year-old vampire who survives by avoiding emotional entanglements. Set in a quiet but tense narrative, the story follows his routine of sustaining himself through blood donations, until a chance encounter with a talkative grad student challenges his isolation. Choices shape Zach’s relationships and force him to confront whether his survival tactics might be costing him something bigger. The game features multiple endings that reflect your decisions in balancing self-preservation with the risk of connection. Made for the Queer Vampire IF Jam, the game leans into its themes with a focus on vulnerability and identity. Community feedback highlights its concise but impactful storytelling and the way it uses Zach’s vampire persona to explore boundaries. At under four hours to complete, it’s a short but pointed experience that leaves room for reflection.
