Do we want Leon added as a minor RO to book 2?

I've gotten enough comments requesting this that I'm opening it up to patrons! If the answer is yes, then I'll start work on this next month.

For an idea of what to expect: the Leon route would not get as much screentime as Keo/Rin/Wren's romances, but it would be enough of a romance th...

With spring rolling in soon...

I can't get the idea of a picnic RO date out of my head. There's zero room in the story of book 2 for this and yet I'm fighting tooth and nail to not write the scene anyway 😂 Send help.

Extended Writing Update

So far, so good on the release! :D No bugs have been reported, and I'm hopeful that there won't be many typos found since the game qualified to get a copyeditor ~ I'm so grateful to the folks who've left good reviews, it really warms my heart to see the culmination of the past 3 years of work be ...

Update: billing paused for February while I recover from an illness. (Tldr; you won't be charged this month)

Hi everyone, I'm very sorry to say I've been infected with covid. Seeing as this was the illness that disabled me, I'm going to play it safe and take February mostly-off to recover.

I paused charging this morning - so during this time you will not be charged. I truly a...

Extended Writing Update

This week saw me mostly tearing my hair out in both annoyance and, in a way, pride? I guess? 😂 I completely cut the prologue. I'm going to rewrite it eventually, but the plot point it introduces doesn't work this early. Welcome to my writing process, in which I regularly realize I've tried to ...

Me, opening up the day by staring at the scene I wrote last week

I'm just trying to figure out how what I planned to be a brief, 2-choice scene became five choices with the last one branching into three paths, each of which has its own inner choice.

Extended Writing Update

Chapter one officially has a new scene, and I love it. It lets MC connect with some folks in the community they grew up in, provides some insight on their daily life since the events of book one, and shows us progress in how MC interacts with the magic! I really like stuff like this, where we get...

Poll: Starter characters for the demo 🌱

I'll be working on starter characters soon, for players who don't want to answer a ton of questions to play the demo.

I'm deciding between having themes for these characters' decisions in book one vs just picking random options. Which would you prefer?

Extended Writing Update

This week saw me chugging along as usual, and it's continuing to go well! I'm enjoying fleshing out the council a bit - adding in more physical descriptions and adding in a few more choices around MC's experience of both the people there and the institution as a whole. It's kind of a challenge to...

Extended Writing Update

This week I took a bit of a breather since I didn't do that during the holidays - I still wrote, but at a much more enjoyable pace. I took some time to engage a bit more with the world around me and draw some inspiration from the winter snow and the magic of this season. Everything I came up with...
