Anti-Mutant Academy | Post Apocalyptic School Adventure (Demo Mini-Update 10/3/26)

January 2026 Progress Update

I’ve split the writing between two sections since the last update. I started writing another exploration scene in Beck but I decided I needed a break from the intermission and actually continued the main story from after the final intermission. I realized while writing it that there is not much left in this game outside of the billion character bonding events I need to finish. I did get into a little bit of a groove so it’s possible I finish the main plot before I do the intermission. If I do then I’ll just make a final story update and then post the final intermission after the story is done.

That being said, I’ve hit a major hiatus this past month so I haven’t finished either scene I was working on which shouldn’t take too long when I get back to them. I’m hoping to get writing again in the next couple of months. I’ll try to use the break to clear my mind and hit the keyboard extra hard when I do get back to it!

Not as of right now, but that’s definitely something I can look into. I’ll post the link here if I decide to set one up. :slightly_smiling_face:

Advertising my game is definitely one of my bigger weaknesses, which I think plays a part in this thread being more of the quieter ones, so any advice in that department like this one is greatly appreciated!

maybe this low effort meme will help with the marketing

i imagine a scene like this will be canon by the later books (mc and casen will win of course)

I’ve seen enough, you’re hired! Marketing department!

:joy: No specifics, but definitely some awesome MC-Casen scenes to come!

I’ve finally finished making a Tumblr for Anti-Mutant Academy! As usual I have no idea what I’m doing as I’ve never had a Tumblr before so any advice on what I can post will be appreciated! Until then, if you want to ask the author (me) any questions about the game or have fun talking to the characters then check it out!

Took another break from writing the story but I am still getting through it in small pieces until I have more time.

July 2026 Progress Update

Bad news, I slowed down again writing wise this past week. Good news, before that I’ve wrote more content than I have in a very long time. I’ve made a lot of good progress! Most of my writing has gone towards post final intermission content, so basically the ending of the game. I’ve finished about 70% of it, to the point where I’m considering I just release the final chapter of the main story before the full final intermission.

I’ve also finished Diego’s romance scene, so I’m thinking I will be releasing his final intermission event in either the next progress update or the one after that. Still a lot to write but the difficult part is done!

Tumblr has been going great, I’ve been having a lot of fun interacting with everyone. It’s usually quiet when I take 10 years between updates so it’s nice to talk about the book and writing during my down time! If you have any questions for me or the characters feel free to ask them on there (or here)! That’s all for now, looking forward to making much more progress soon! :smiley:

September 2026 Progress Update

Been off and on again these past couple months! The good news is that I am very close to finishing Diego’s final intermission so the goal is to post that either the next progress update or the one after that depending on how it goes.

I’ve also come to the conclusion that I will more than likely be posting the final section of the game before the final intermission is completed. So basically everything after the final intermission to the end of the first book. I’ve made some pretty good progress with that, it’s just the final part has more complicated coding which always takes me a lot of time. I’ll probably finish Anni and Diego’s final intermissions before that and post them first though.

Here’s to hoping for things to speed up a little bit, I’m really excited to finish the first draft of this game and take that next step forward!

the tonal shift between the earlier chapters and the mutant attack is really jarring but in a good way. feels like an “end of an innocent childhood” moment. do hope the shift isnt permanent and we get back and forths between light and dark tones in later books, feel like that would be most fitting.

I’m glad it came across that way! That was definitely the intention in ch. 5 with the expectation being a tour to moments later directly coming across ‘it’. There will definitely be breaks for a lighter tone even as the stakes rise. That’s another thing I value with intermissions! They’ll definitely allow for character interaction and more light hearted quests in between…if it ever becomes that dark anyhow! :thinking:

The second book will have the widest variety of school activities in the series if that helps!

Diego’s Final Intermission Mini Update has been posted!

Finally I have made an update to this game after forever! I posted Diego’s Final Intermission, which you can access the same way you did with the others by clicking “yes” to update six, going through quick or in depth selection, and then selecting Diego’s Final Intermission. That just leaves Anni as the final one left for the main cast! I hope everyone enjoys, feedback is appreciated as always! :smiley:
