I have a minor question about the end of Chapter 2. Is it unavoidable that your disposition changes in regards to how calm you are? It seems like it might be, based on what happens, but I was curious.
That's correct. At certain points in the story your disposition will change regardless of your choices, but it's not permanent, just to show how the current situation is affecting the MC.
Thank you for making this story! I like all the characters so far (Even if I am suspicious of one of them...) and I look forward to seeing more of the story unfurl in the future! I wish I had the funds to donate to your patreon for this project.
Question about character creation. Are there/will there be points where the player can change their character's pronouns/name, or are the ones you pick at the beginning the ones your stuck with for the whole game?
If you don't mind me asking, is there a specific reason that in particular is something that won't be added, or is it just not in your current plans?
Cause if it's the later, I will say that with the way it is now i.e. choosing your character's pronouns as an infant, without any opportunities to change them, it at least to me, heavily implies, if not outright states, that the player character can't be trans.
Like sure the MC is a changeling, but they're seemingly still being put in a body with no real choice in the matter as an infant, so it seems to just be being assigned a gender at birth with extra steps.
Ah, I see what you mean. My thought process was that the character creation in the prologue was just that - you choosing what you want your character to be. Though I guess it comes across as a different character describing what your assigned gender at birth is, not what you actually identify as.
I'm non-binary myself so I would just choose "child" and they/them pronouns at the start, even though that obviously isn't my agab. I never considered someone might pick their assigned gender during character creation and then want to switch to their actual gender later down the line. Thank you for bringing that to my attention.
Would you say the time skip between chapter 1 and 2 would be a good place to allow for a change in pronouns and name? I think I could easily add that in the next update.
I did happen to uncover a bug however, but I am uncertain whether it is due to being on a pc or not. The game after a solid amount of time has the save interface going haywire. The save interface drastically shifts upward to the point where one can only see the "save to local system", and "load from local system". This forced me to consider using local save only, as halfway through the playthrough I would no longer be able to access the browser saves, unless of course I refresh the browser.
And from what I have seen so far there does not seem to be an option to change our fighting style (I have read up to the point where we get to converse with the horses). Another thing I would appreciate an answer on is whether or not we would be able to pick a side and actually have it affect the epilogue? For example, would we be able to support the fae, causing the epilogue to refer to us as living among them?
And please continue to lead us through this adventure... it is exhilarating. The combat was phenomenal, I felt invested and like an actual contender, as the battle seemed perfectly paced. Although I would have enjoyed more choices on our moveset.
That's a strange bug, not sure what caused it. Could you tell me what browser you played in and how many safe file slots you used?
At first, your fighting style will depend on which mentor you had, but you'll be able to adapt it over time. Yes, there will be different endings depending on your choices. Choosing a side will change the story drastically, so yes, your example is possible.
I'm currently using firefox. Do you think that may be the issue? I would code dive to better inform you but I'm currently unfamiliar with SugarCube code.
And thanks for the answer. I didn't know you could get a different mentor yet. I'll have to attempt again and see whether my mentor changes.
I've had issues with formatting not showing up correctly in firefox before, so it might be that. I'll look into it. In the mean time, try using a different browser.
i love the story so far! i cant wait to spend more time with Az'Lean and Lester is such an adorable asshole. though i did encounter this after the battle-
-but overall i am really enjoying it.
quick question : will there be a poly option ?(just wondering)
and also, what exactly does villain romance mean ?
I've been thinking about adding a poly option, but it's a lot of work. It's not off the table, but I want to focus on the individual romances first. But thanks for letting me know there's interest in them!
The idea is that, depending on your choices, some of the romance options might end up being the villains of your story (or you're the one in theirs). You can still pursue them though (at your own risk).
oh no problem work at your own pace ! (i just really like poly options so i ask on almost every IF i like)
i am also quite excited that the aspect of villain romances if it means i can do a enemy to lovers situation- or maybe a enemies with unresolved tension? anyway i look forward to the next update >o<
So I havent finished the demo yet but I did find a bug? I dont know if you meant to leave it like that or its an actual bug but uum (i know this games only been published for less than a day and a bug report so soon can be a bit disheartening but I really love this game! So keep up the work!)
For those who have not finished the game beware of spoilers!
Is it supposed to be like that? (Like you write it down and make the scene later then put it in) or is it really a bug? (Also Im playing this on mobile if that helps?)
I uuuh also found a typo..its its really small but... im just gonna put it here
The MC reactions matching their personality are so good, The little panic when they discover about all the fae thing and at the very same time i don't think they will see their birthday as the same thing anymore.
They're in a bad situation, and i feel for them when the prince finally discovers their champion fae like nature, after all that happened to his mum
I love Vynn and if anything happens to them my MC will most likely go mad
WHERE IS THE ORIGINAL BABY GRAHM? I hope they aren't hurt or dead ya know, if we ever meet them i hope they can forgive MC even if all the stuff that happened is actually things MC couldn't control or known.
Congrats on the demo release! And for it being pretty meaty to start off with. I'm definitely looking forward for more.

After the scene where your MC looks in the mirror and realize they're a changeling, where the MC realizes there's no one to talk to but 'maybe there is something else that might help you in making sense of all of this,' is that meant to be the end of the demo? There's nothing for me to click to proceed, but also nothing clear saying this is the end of the demo, so wondering if it's the end or maybe there's something finicky (I played on mobile). Otherwise, greatly enjoyed! I think I noticed a few typos, something I can compile, but it all flows very well so far.
Also it doesn't seem like there's a back button like other twines I'm used to. Not really an issue, but intentional?

Absolutely loved reading this, the writing is amazing! Can't wait for more updates<333
Thank you! Glad you liked it! :)
Lovely story, really immersive but i want to ask, is the 'your fighting style' in 'character' suppose to be empty or ...?
No, it shouldn't be empty. Thanks for letting me know, I'll make sure to fix it!

Yeah, there should've been one more scene after that. I just tried to fix it, hopefully everything works now.
Yes, that's intentional. I feel like it adds more weight to the choices if they can't be undone.
