JACKKNIFE
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
JACKKNIFE is a psychological horror visual novel set in the highways of rural America. You play a lone hitchhiker trying to outrun your past when a charming truck driver named Jackie offers you a ride. But as snow begins to fall, you sense that your rescuer might be far more dangerous than you expected.
Features:
- 13,900 words
- 9 cgs
- Branching narrative paths based on choices
The Characters:
Jackie
Player:
You play as a lonely hitchhiker. A woman, though who she is and what she’s running from are left to you. There are no pronoun options, and the story uses feminine terms like 'lady' when referring to you. Your appearance is never shown directly, but your style of dress is more feminine, like references to wearing skirts and make-up.
Content warning:
Jackknife contains depictions of blood, death, stalking, manipulation, and predation. This game explores mature subject matter intended for adult audiences. Minor sexual themes, but no explicit graphic sex is depicted.
Future Plans:
I’ve had this concept for a few years now, but I took the opportunity this year to practice branching paths in a visual novel in a way I haven’t before. I do have some future ideas for this game, but I wouldn’t call it a demo, as I don’t currently plan to finish it , it was more of a writing exercise. However, if there’s enough interest, I might continue it!
For now, feel free to check out my other games. I recently released a remake of my lesbian dating sim from years back, check it out here: https://llonelly.itch.io/monster-sweethearts-recut

PAPA. ME WANT MORE MOVIE. Okay but seriously this game is so good?? I love the art style and I love the storyline!! I think it would be nice for this to get extended, every time I reach an ending I yearn for more! I’d like to know more about Jackie and hopefully have a route/ending where the reader and Jackie have a happy ending without mc dying (lol) but yeah, I really enjoyed this vn!! Keep up the good work😋

Your Honour, she may be guilty but I don't care. I love her.
im so gay holy crap heh
i really enjoyed this,tried doing all the endings not sure if i did all, but i did find out theres an ending where she doesnt kill me^^ the choices before hand really matters
i think if u wanna get to a good ending just be obedient and don't be nosy,follow everything she says,at night always stay in the truck,flirt with her, then when u confront the biker girl,she tells you to go back, you go back. i think thats pretty much how i got that ending.
good thing im doing all that heh
