Calling of Metem's Hollow (WIP, Hiatus) Updated 05/29/19

Just gave this a read and I loved it. Anything Werewolf related is an immediate win with me.

Also -

You totally caught me off guard with that Flirt / Start Romance option with Elysia. Did not expect that at all.

And then

When I got the option to start a romance with Lys immediately after when I messing around with options I was like “Man, if you do both of them at the same time thats gunna turn into a serious fucking issue later ain’t it?”

All in all, I love this, keep doing it.

Not a full game but I’m sooooooo hooked. I really want too know what happens next. I love the story, the lore and characters. It’s such a great game story and I hope you have enough inspiration to finish this :blush:

Just posting an update to let you guys know that I began working on chapter 3 this week! Some IRL stuff came up so it might be slow going for a while, but I am writing it!! Hope you’re all doing well and taking care of yourselves! :kissing_heart:

Thought I’d pop in again and let you know that I’m still chugging along on chapter 3! It’s definitely been slow, but I’ve been being more productive lately with Patreon and CoMH both! :slight_smile: I’ve been trying my best and will continue to do so! (Also, I just introduced one of the new love interests and I’m very excited!)

If you want more frequent updates, don’t be afraid to follow me on Tumblr. I try to do weekly updates there, as opposed to the 2-3 weeks here, and they’re a little more in-depth with what I’m actually doing.

Love you guys, and please take care of yourselves!! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Hello! I’m happy to hear Chapter Three is coming along; I’m very much enamored by this demo. Will we have an option of a polyamorous relationship between our MC, Lys, and Pan? I think that’d be adorable. Also, is it possible for a mortal to become a god, or is the closest they could get something like Donni and Elysia (immortal, but not gods, and at great cost)?

3 Likes

Yes, MC/Lys/Pan is a current polymance option; there’s simply not a scene in the game reflecting it yet!

As for your other question, all of the Gods were once mortal, so it is possible, but it hasn’t happened in a very long time. The closest anyone’s gotten is what Donni/Elysia has achieved.

Hey guys! Just wanted to pop in and let you know that progress has been slow, but I have been working on CoMH! However, I’m planning on taking the whole of Sept off because I’ll be too busy to really write/edit.

As always, thanks for your support! I love you all! :kissing_heart:

I know you’re on break because I started following all your social media!

I just had to stop by and tell you how much I absolutely love this story. It’s beautifully written and I can really feel myself in the world.

I knew immediately I would love Pan, he’s so sweet but strong in his own ways. But now there’s Donni being all sexy and then (I haven’t read this far yet) the secret RO everyone is talking about sounds amazing, too! It’s going to be a really tough choice.

Hope you can relax and heal on your hiatus and know that your fans are all supporting you.

Thank you all for your support through this! It means the entire world to me!

I’m sorry to say that the hiatus is going to continue indefinitely. Things just aren’t looking very good on my end right now, but I will let you all know when things change. :slight_smile:

Take your time and deal with what you need to and comeback to the game when you feel that you can

Hello everyone! Just thought I’d pop in and say that I’m still on hiatus until the start of the new year, but then I plan to continue working on CoMH! :wink: The break has been nice and refreshing! I hope everyone has had a nice couple months!

Know that I’m thinking about you all and am always thankful for the support you’ve given me! :kissing_heart:

I’m really hoping life lets you get this through to publication on HG, if you do it’ll be one of the best games on the brand IMO. Good luck with things :smiley:

I think it is good so far and has potential to be really good. I do so hope you plan on maybe implementing a polymorphous relationship feature as well as I really like M & L and if I can would like to be with both romance wise. I like the other to just not that way. If not then I guess I will choose L since I like her better if I have to choose. Any potential for this in your opinion of course if without spoils :stuck_out_tongue: ?

i think i read somewhere in the tumblr for this WIP that you can indeed have a polyamorous relationship with magda + lys! though i haven’t personally done it… yet. the poly romances that i have done are the donni + magda combo and lys + pan combo. there’s probably going to be more polyamorous relationships in the future, since we haven’t been introduced to all the romanceable characters.

Yeah pretty much all the romances are okay will poly. Except for Elysia, she will refuse to share you with anyone.

Almost everyone is poly like the others said, yes! So you’ll be able to romance Magda and Lys at the same time! :smiley:

Also hello everyone! Just wanted to pop in and give you all an update and let you know I will be returning to work on CoMH in January! This will involve some major overhauls of current content and systems before anything else. But then it will be on to Chapter 3!

As always, thank you for your support! :kissing_heart:

Ok, so… because I was curious about who the ROs were, I paused in the middle of a meeting with my chosen Deity to see if your Tumblr had a full list of them. And, if it weren’t just after 5am, I’d have BURST OUT LAUGHING.

I went into this game with no prior knowledge to it, having seen a post about it on Tumblr, and I ended up choosing to worship the romanceable deity!!! This is so funny to me! I actually can’t express how much this coincidence amuses me! It’s hilarious! …I’ll admit, I chose him because he seemed lonely, despite being a god. My MC, Belladonna (because I’m a nerd and thought that would be funny), is a Keeper-Muse and I like Bard archetypes so he called to me in a weird way that the other deities didn’t. Even if there is one for the arts.

I paused on the scene segment where (Flirt) options were presented. I was so startled by the idea of flirting with my god, that I as a character worship, that I had to set the score straight. Anyway, back to my first play through!

~Sometime Later~

Oof-- Almost refers to Faeteus… darn. Oh well, I can deal. Multiple Saves in WIPs are there for this very reason! maybe

I was dealing quite maturely. But then I think I finally realised that “Save 0” is just your most recent save file. So, I accidentally saved my new Faeteus save over my “Romance Clean” save which I was gonna use for Donni and Pan. So… I need to take a sec typing this before I begin ALL OVER AGAIN FOR THE SECOND TIME. [Glares through time and space at my past self for being a dolt.]

~A Little Later~

Aaaaand I should’ve recalled that the characters’ relationships with each other would play a factor. Of COURSE Donni wouldn’t be interested in an MC that’s with Pan, someone he’s not terribly close to. Magda, someone he’s known for as long as he’s known MC that he also cares about? Totally! Elysia, his former friend whom he has tried to help over the course of their long, pointless lives? Maybe, probably not! Pan? Why?! ARGH! [Bops self for being a dolt again.]

…screw it, I’ll neaten this up later. I’ll probably make a Pan + Lys save, a Faeteus save, and a Donni save. Pan and Lys because, hey, they’ve already spent practically their entire lives together. Why not be together romantically too? No Unlucky Childhood Friends for this lost! Polytriade for the win! But, since Faeteus is adamant about being MC’s only paramour and I’m not romantically interested in Magda, the other two shall be monogamous.

I usually feel tedium set in if I restart more than once, but I really didn’t. I wanted to see how these relationships would be affected if I made different choices. I could feel the impact of each relationship and each choice I made pertaining to them. I think you’re doing a brilliant job.

I love everyone we were introduced to, either as a character or as a person.

I played as the eldest girl of four orphans (Elder brother, younger brother and sister), abandoned by our parents for reasons I know not, adopted by Pan’s mums, working as a Keeper-Muse, and wielding Healing Magick (Primary) and Daggers (Secondary). Pan + Lysandra and Donni run throughs, her name in Belladona Baccae (literally meaning Belladona Berries) and in Faeteus’ route she will be Belladona Amour as her own quiet way of saying she’s essentially the god of Luck, Love and Time’s “love”. That is a massive sentence. But that’s just how customizable you made the MC! Freaking KUDOS.

Is it obvious I love your game, yet? Should I try harder to display this? I need to draw my MC. I need to draw Lys and Pan. ARGH, I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH. I shall be following you on Tumblr shortly!

Don’t think they were friends, if they were they’re not no longer he mainly guards her and keeps people safe from her getting out. Also Elysia doesn’t do poly, Faeteus and Elysia so far are the only ones who won’t do poly.
