My Brother; The Parasite

About

My Brother; The Parasite is a short, text-driven narrative that follows the strange bond between two siblings after one of them dies. Developed in Twine, it uses simple branching choices to explore grief, memory, and the lingering weight of family ties. The story unfolds through sparse dialogue and quiet moments, with hand-drawn art popping up occasionally to emphasize key scenes. It plays out like a fragmented diary, letting you piece together secrets and regrets as you go. The game’s raw, personal tone stands out. Written and coded in three weeks for a competition, it still manages to pack emotional depth into its brief runtime. Community feedback highlights its haunting atmosphere and how it lingers in your mind long after finishing. At under two hours, it’s a quick but memorable experiment in how minimalism can say a lot.
