Here is a little snippet from the upcoming update. This takes place shortly after leaving Abydos behind, once your MC meets the last members of the group that haven't been introduced yet 👀 This one is from the veteran captain's POV but there will be different variations for every MC origin. 2025-01-15 23:31:13 +0000 UTC View Post
I would like to get some ideas from you about which POV scenes you'd like to see here in the future 😃 (these scenes are only available from Tier 2, but I will also make events like during Christmas where I make them available to the public for a short amount of time)
For this week Sunday...
2025-01-14 19:38:14 +0000 UTC View PostI changed my mind about how this will work because I realized it would be much more effective to have this thread open for the whole month (or what's left of it). So this thread will be open until the 31st of January, which is a Friday update day, so I will post the answers the next day or the da...

The next lore post is going to be about spirits, so I didn't write much about them in this o...

I uploaded the first scene to Chapter 4 that I think very well illustrates the general mood of the characters for the upcoming chapter 😅 It's not long, only a bit more than a 1000 words, but since it's still update day today, I wanted to share it 🙂↕️

I updated both demos today, the public demo with Chapter 3 that you have seen already in the patreon demo, but I fixed many grammar mistakes (I also found more pronoun code errors, those pesky things...), some awkward sentences, and fixed paragraphs too, so I updated the patreon demo with the sam...
2025-01-10 13:44:57 +0000 UTC View PostJust wanted to let you know what's going on with the game this week. I'm currently editing. It takes a long time and for some reason, it always makes me sleepy 😂 Not because I'm bored of my own writing or anything, I guess it's just not as exciting as writing new content.
Anyway, I'm go...
2025-01-08 20:14:29 +0000 UTC View PostWhat inspired you to do a game based on Egypt?
I was always interested in history ever since I was a child. Mostly about ancient history, but I can get invested in new subjects rather quickly. Ancient Egypt has been a favorite subject of mine and this actually isn't my first time writing ab...

Sorry for the slight delay, I got a bit overwhelmed with some of the choices around the end, so I stayed up until 7 in the morning to finish this BUT! Amazing news!
CHAPTER 3 IS FINISHED! (on this first draft)
The next chapter is looking out to be much longer, and also much more comp...
2025-01-04 06:10:20 +0000 UTC View PostI'm so sorry, I meant to post this on Wednesday but I completely forgot 😭 So here it is now, a snippet from the scene with Zaia from the upcoming Friday (tonight) update:
"Do you… like sitting in the sun then?" you ask rather awkwardly to move on from the subject.

2025-01-03 12:35:53 +0000 UTC View PostI put together a schedule that I think might work for me, although some of these dates are up to change.
03. 01. - Game update (it's possible that I will finish Chapter 3 here)
04. 01. - Q&A question period ends
05. 01. - Post the answer to Q&A...

As usual, I underestimated some of the work in these scenes. Story of my life. I got a bit carried away with some of the RO scenes too, but it's all in good fun 👀 I really like what came out of it, but it means I couldn't finish all of them, so for now, only Qenna's and Tabiry's extra scenes a...
2024-12-28 01:19:38 +0000 UTC View PostLike I said some days ago, in this update, I will add more scenes to the time period where Petmes goes into his trance, so immediately before the showdown with Narmer. I'm still working on those scenes, but I am also adding a few more scenes after the argument, to show you the react...

I made a map of Thebes some time ago, but it was missing some labels. Now I put them all up, so you can see where each MC lives and their companions 👀 The picture is quite big, so you'll have to zoom in to see the text.
The map is not historically accurate but it's as accurate as I coul...

I feel like I managed the impossible. I didn't only rewrite those lost 5k words, but I reached 17k words with this update! How cool is that??? *patting my own shoulder with pride*
In this update, you can continue the story where you left off. (saves made at the indicated point befo...
2024-12-20 23:40:38 +0000 UTC View PostI managed to write back that big chunk of text that was lost. It took me most of yesterday, but at least it went faster than the first time because I already sort-of knew what I wrote back then. So, the update is still coming later today (probably late night European time). I don't know how much ...

I don't know how it happened but somehow the entire chapter 3 file got deleted and overwritten/autosaved by CSIDE just now. Which means all of the progress I made on the file since Monday got deleted too. Fortunately, I can recover the previous update files from the cogdemos website but the new p...

This update contains some... surprises. Some good. Some not so much.

I finally found a nice template for the character sheets, so I made these today! :D I blurred out the spoilers, but be aware that even the fact that something is blurred out can be SPOILERY. I will remove the blur gradually as more things are discovered about them in the game.
