Fear Beyond:
A visual tool for a game with no visuals. Makes sense — if you don't think about it too hard.

Pacing problems hide in code. Not in a viewport.

Futzing around on #Twine yesterday reminded me that I have two completed projects I should share more.

I've made both available to download for free here:

Someone carved a number into the dirt outside one creature's shelter. The human said it was 4:10pm. The creature got irritated.

"Trying to make your system fit mine. It doesn't."

MERCANOID is a sci-fi Adult Text RPG I made for free last year! Under current levels of market inflation, this price has been adjusted to 'still free'!

Try it out while I cook up something new. 👁️

Realized we introduced ourselves but never shared any screenshots of the #game in development, so here's a little Monday #MUD #nostalgia!

Nice milestone tonight, finished the last loss scene.

While this game is (purposefully) smaller than MERCANOID, given the limited timeframe I've given myself to make it, we're still looking at around 24k words of smut...

Not including the ending, that is~.

Stay tuned! #adultgames #textgames

Worked out stat and combat system today. Going to prototype in-engine next. Was worried about making classes impactful in the world but only thing left is a small reward/branch for class dialogue. Full #BG3 dialogue reaction is big scope and doesn't fit with world. #GameDesign #TextGames #NSFWgames
