I Would Rather Have Cake

About

I Would Rather Have Cake is a brief visual novel where conversation takes center stage. You follow a quiet exchange between two characters in a chilly setting one is a baker, the other not. Dialogue unfolds in simple but expressive text as they discuss desserts and drift toward deeper topics. The lack of complex mechanics or branching paths lets the interaction breathe. Short scenes and sparse art keep the focus on tone and pacing. But Wholesome Games crafted this title for the Queer Jam 2023. While under 30 minutes long it has earned praise on indie forums for its gentle approach to personal connection. Players highlight how the minimalism makes the emotional beats land cleanly. A quiet pick for moments when you want something low key but thoughtful.
