Procedural role-playing adventure book thing notes

So that is an awkward af title and the reason is if I was to say “fighting fantasy” or “choose your own adventure” I’d be infringing trademarks, and just “interactive fiction” doesn’t really get the point across, I think?

I dunno I’ll come up with better ways to describe this project further on, but for now picture a generator that basically just makes a book in the style of fighting fantasy. Interactive fiction rogue like maybe? I dunno.

Anyway as you can see from the notes above I’m mostly focusing on the mechanical stuff for now, making sure battles and characters work alright, since the actual “if you choose X, turn to 123” stuff is pretty basic.

I’m also working on a demo story in twine (that will probably be this month’s build?) which will test that the games the generator could make are mechanically sound.

I was planning to put this project off until I had finished making a more polished version of Waitress for Zombies (which I want to release as a patron-only game, soon hopefully) and also releasing the iOS version of my dice roller, but I kept getting excited about this idea so I’ve been putting a lot of time into it. (Well this and also learning piano).

anyway, hope you’re well, love you! <3

Endless Library

Hey so this is what I made for procjam, but you can have it a couple of days early because I super love you <3

Update: OK it’s public now, here’s the itch page.

FYI I still super love you! <3

Vampire Queen of Evenmere – Week 2

WIP link to play for this week is >> here <<

So, this week has been pretty productive! I’m still behind my target but not so much – the current wordcount is 20k, with 200+ passages – so that’s about half of a Fighting Fantasy gamebook (yes I keep using this metric lol).

As far as what is in it, you can now also travel through the forest up to the castle grounds, and explore some of the castle itself. There is also some unlinked backstory passages too, but they contain spoilers so do be careful if you’re just scrolling and reading (basically if you find a passage that is past-tense, that’s spoilers!)

Waitress For Zombies – Happy Halloween!

OH NO IT’S A ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE

BUT YOU (A TOP WAITRESS) STILL HAVE TO PAY BILLS

TIME TO SERVE SOME BRAINS, (WHICH YOUR CHEF SEEMS TO HAVE PREPARED???)

So yeah, that’s the game! Zombie customers come in, feed them before they get impatient and eat you!

Controls:

• WASD/Arrows = Move
•  Q = Pick Up/Drop with left hand 
•  E = Pick Up/Drop with right hand 

I’d like to polish this up later, but for now it’s as-is (which ngl, is pretty rough – you’re gonna have to quit and re-open the app if you get eaten)

Monthly Build 2019/10 – Dice Update Release Candidate

This will hopefully be the last monthly build that is dice because I hope (hope hope hope hope hope) that I can release this build this week… I know that it’s not gonna feel like much of a patron exclusive considering I’m giving it to you only a few days before people who bought it but I will make it up to you if I can! (specifically, if I can finish the release in time I want to make a halloween game, but that might be tight timewise so we’ll see)

Anyway, this is absolutely the best version of my dice roller and I’m super psyched to share it with you!

Get it here (and remember to download one marked “1_1_rc1”) <3

I hope you’re well, happy Halloween! 🎃
