How they each go about psychologically playing with someone.
Crowny:
“You’re lying.”
“No, I’m not. Sure, Sally asked me a few times where you were but it’s more like he was scared that if something happened to you that means something would happen to me. He doesn’t give a fuck about you as a person. Percy barely even noticed, fuck, I don’t even t...

Did he feel horrible? In a way, yes. Wasn’t he the one who wanted them to be normal? To make friends and act like a kid their age instead of that cold lonely being staring back at him with those unnerving eyes? He felt bad when he would see them locked away in their room after school when other kids their age would be at parties, study groups and doing whatever it is teenagers do.

Forgot to mention this but I’ve decided to basically link the patreon to the alpha. The way it’s supposed to work is that you can only access if you have a Patreon membership. Makes it easier to prevent leaks. I’ve never tried it but anyway the pinned post has the updated link.
If you can’t access it, tell me.
EDIT: turns out this can only work if I make it downloadable an...

This bad boy has a min-game and some quality time with the group just chilling really.
Probably missed bugs like always.
I took away the confirm button, hopefully it will work as intended and I also added certain things that you might've not done (i.e. took the vampire side quest to get the vial of vampire blood) simply cause it just makes coding with this type of pre-set choices th...

You sigh, “it wasn’t but it wasn’t their fault either. I think we just simply weren’t suited to be family. Maybe… if my parents were happier people, maybe if medicine was more advanced and they could’ve treated my condition —whatever it is— sooner. If we were richer. If my dad was nicer and more present. If my mom didn’t resent her life. If we lived somewhere else in a dif...

General
Progress: I am nearing completion of scene four. I just need to write the choices which could take me a day or two.
Rewriting (?): I've been thinking of perhaps rewriting the end of scene three because it feels anti-climatic to me. I want Crowny to pot...

Basically if I commission art with the ROs and Crowny I want to know which gender of Crowny would you want to show up with the ROs. Choose for each please.

First part
His father’s voice still bellowed from the first floor. The same as always. How he was a lazy boy. Aimless. How…
“… he thinks he’s too good to be a farmer!”
The boy tried to hide his head under the hay. But his father’s voice was thun...

So, like an hour ago I woke up —I was still half-asleep though, kept taking small 30-second naps — and I got this idea.
There's so many What Ifs in this game, right? What if the Crowns were still rich? What if Crowny's family loved them? What if Crowny was liked? What if Crowny was free from their mental issues? What if the town was a regular old town?
So my idea is that in epis...

God why did this take longer than expected? Literally started adding it to twine yesterday and it took until today to finish.
Anyway a few things happen here, I’ll let you see for yourselves.
Remember y’all this update is to the alpha not the version that is public.

So if a character was asking your Crowny what they like, what would you answer? It can be anything from hobbies to just things they think are pretty, etc.,

Anyway I had to change them for reasons some of you might know.
For the "public" version of episode 8 it's now 'boogie.'
For the Alpha it's now 'winterstormsabound.’

Been hit by inspiration once more…
Since y’all see how strained Nia’s and Imre’s relationship is getting I kind of want to create a special stat (yes jude said she wasn’t going to do anymore but she’s an addict treat her with sympathy 😞) which only works if you meet two conditions. If you’re romancing Imre or are friends with him and are romancing or friends with Nia, Imr...

I kind of want to add certain physical disabilities to wwc like have the options for Crowny to be asthmatic, wear glasses or have a hearing aid
I’ve also been thinking about adding a new vice. Perhaps an ED like bulimia
Idk what do y’all think? Is there something you’d like to see either for any disabilities or vices?
Cheers, jude.

Her waist feels perfect in between your arms, as if she was made to be there. Her vanilla scented breath drives you crazy and pushes your thoughts away from a moment. She has her arms thrown around your neck and her face is hidden in the crook of your neck. Your heart refuses to speed down. Every touch feels new even though when you were friends you used to hug. You’re in a strange place now,...

“I’ll think of something,” you say. “I’ll be there tonight.”
He must hear the determination in your voice because he smiles wide. “Of course you will. I know you won’t let me down.”

So I decided instead of having you guys keep inputting passwords, I'll just create a separate game file entirely that doesn't show up on itch for public viewing and requires just one password to access.
I did this for one major reason, you know that skip section that I created? Well it's a bit of bitch to add new code for that and old official code from the game so it was too much work. I...

So I'm about 90% done with this scene all I need is to add the choices. Might be completed tomorrow or the day after. Adding the coding will come after that so a good estimate will be that it's released between Friday-Sunday.
I've been looking into more pixel art for the game like having a tab for locations such as the manor, the school, the lodge, lorcan's house, main street, Imre's hous...

If someone like Percy could find love, what does it say that you can't?
«Imre» Like always these days, you think of Imre. Would you say you love him? You've never really thought about that word associated with him. It feels like it doesn't fit. It seems too much, too little and inaccurate. It's hard to know something you've never felt. He makes your body heat up. He occupies your though...

So I finished creating the option where you can just skip to episode 9 without having to replay by selecting options. I did so now because I’ve been going through the first 3 episodes and yeah there are some coding things there that I need to refine since they were created when I was still a novice in coding.
So that works. The password is teenangst

The next part is VERY Orla heavy like the most Orla-focused scene in the game yet. Y’all are gonna be sick of her if you’re not already.
It’s also the longest time Crowny will spend with their family. Like yeah the family is always there but they never do much of anything together. And now they will.
This part also will play heavily with distorted memory in relation to Orla....

From what I see for some of you your gameplay isn’t triggering the locks it needs. The thing is from what I’ve seen it doesn’t happen to everyone, only some of you which makes me think it could be a browser issue. Sometimes it really does just reload an old save instead of a new one regardless because Sugarcube saves it on local storage.
I’ve added a few things to mitigate that f...

This scene is specific to players with high detective skills. It changes based on morality. More spoiler-y than usual
HIGH MORAL

She starts crying, swiping at you, "...

Oh y’all are gonna hate Sally so much (those of you who can). I initially didn’t include this in the outline but as I’m writing it feels right for his character
Lowkey he’s speeding running to be the quickest hated character in the game 😭
Scene 1 is shaping up fine. It could be done either by today or tomorrow

At points in the night you see Orla. Always hidden in shadows, at the corners of your room. You can almost see her beckoning you. Sometimes you see other things, other people. They stand under your window, eyeless, mouths gaped open in silent screams.
You feel light touches on your skin from cold damp fingers. Are these real? Are you losing your mind? You rub your eyes. It's hard to tell...

As requested.
He looks so fragile like this. You’ve never had a false notion of what Lorcan’s body looks like underneath his clothes. He’s always been thin.
But splayed with his legs open, the grey light illuminating his damp pale skin, his nearly white hair sticking to his forehead —you take note of how defenceless he looks.
You lay a hand on his heaving c...

I made another stat 😔
I SWEAR THIS IS THE LAST ONE!
It’s a stat that tracks the type of relationship the group has. You gain points by engaging with them as a group and individually in the same space. Like for example in episode 6 at the end when they’re at the dinner. If you choose to speak to all 3 you get a point
Like I know stats create flavour text and I know play...
