Below the Skyline: a quiet Hong Kong boxing story. Updated 9 October 2025 (WIP, 77k words)

Replaying this is amazing

Hi everyone! I’ve rewritten Eric’s fourth subplot scene. As a reminder of his subplot (spoilers):

Scene 1: You train with him at his combat club.

Scene 2: You train with him, and Chloe barges in, telling him to fight at the Pearl River Cup.

Scene 3: You visit his mentor, Master Wong, in a remote village, where Eric continues to struggle with his inner conflict.

This scene 4 replaces the previous one. The big difference is at the end, where Eric makes a request that he did not make in the previous version of the scene.

Please try out this new scene here.

I’d like to hear your comments, especially about whether the “wrong” choice feels too harsh or if it feels appropriate.

Thank you! I’ve been rewriting parts of the story which I felt were not up to scratch, which is why there won’t be new content for a few more weeks. You’re helping me by testing it out and giving me feedback!

Hello everyone, I’ve updated the first post in this thread with the latest version. This latest version features significantly improved content for Eric’s subplot, fourth scene, and the Chloe fight. Some people commented that Chloe’s fight scene gave off some sexualized vibes, so I’ve done my best to remove those. Eric’s subplot now has a decision at the end of the scene which is more impactful.

I think the game is now in a fairly good state, and on the right track. Therefore, I don’t plan on posting further updates. I will complete the game and go directly to beta testing instead.

Thank you to everyone for your feedback, especially at the start, which has proved invaluable! I’ve managed to solve many thorny issues with it.

Until the full release!
