Episode 3 Sneak Peek #13

This is from a branch where the MC did not trigger either or the reconciliation scenes, or chose to break off their romance with Aeran. I removed the flavour text tags, so some additional conditional things: Rhodarth is alive, MC talked to Veyer in the gallery, and MC's mentor is Cenric.  View Post

Progress Report 2022.08.29: Ups & Downs

Hi friends,

As the end of the month is coming up, I just wanted to get you caught up to where progress currently is. Unfortunately, I’ve contracted Covid and I am quite ill at the moment. I can’t really work on the game while I am sick (the brain fog is real). Fingers crossed that it wo...

Episode 3 Sneak Peek #12

This is from a branch on either Aeran's high romance or high friendship route. I am still working through these variations and pushing the content towards a bottleneck.  We'll see if next week if I'll have non-Aeran focused content for once. 😅

Blood Rites (Veyer Krellion Short Story)

Veyer Krellion is not one to be nervous.

Episode 3 Sneak Peek #11

From a "you got fired branch" where Veyer is present. This is from my June document; I'm really hoping that I will be able to get the game patched soon and start working on new content ASAP so we can move on to something that's not an Aeran or Veyer branch. 😅
