Hey, what's that game? -- A thread for identifying ChoiceScript games

ok yeah maybe is what @no1uno said, my bad, I guess by the time I joined the forum, it may have been taken down, because I am pretty sure I search and rummage through the grave of dashington exploring dead and alive wips and didn’t see this one or the author just didn’t add it to that long list in daashingdon, during those times ahhh the good ol days

Hi, can anyone help me find this wip? It’s something about university? Or academy? Magic? I don’t remember much because it’s been years I since I played it.
It was first day of school. You have many choices too as I remember. You can be shy, confident, and other things I don’t remember. You can be book smart, good with magic, charming…
You also have a best friend. I remember you can choose the gender of your love interests and your best friend. You ride some kind of train on your way to the university. Then you get to meet your other classmates there. I think one of the love interest too likes you very much, almost like a yandere? What I remember about the love interests, is that there’s this charming guy, smart one, the strong one, the weird one…then your best friend.

Oh, I found it! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: Triaina: Academy - WIP - Update 1.28 - (9/15/2024)

Hi, can you guys help me remember the title of an - if I’m not mistaken - abandonned game? It’s probably not even playable anymore since it was back when dashingdon hosted the CScript based demos, but recently I mentionned that one game to someone and couldn’t remember what it was called.
It was a fantasy setting, and the main character was a demon who sort of found themself “infiltrating” a group of heroes that were on a quest to DEFEAT demons. If I’m not mistaken, all of them were ROs and I believe none was gender selectable (but I’m unsure about that). One of the ROs was a bit of a dim-witted (affectionate) catgirl, and she’s the only one I remember clearly since she was the one I had chosen. She left a big impression on me because it was the only time I picked a female RO in an IF (and so the curse made it so the game was abandonned).

I for sure have a notepad memo with all of my choices written down somewhere, but I play hundreds of IFs so looking through them all to find the right one seems daunting…
Thanks!

Hi, can anyone help me find this twine/interactive fiction? Sorry if I am posting in the wrong thread, I don’t know where else to post this.
It’s been years ago the last time I read this, probably at the start or during COVID. It is a wholesome and sad story. What I remember is, you are a sickly kid or teen, you moved out the city I think, for a fresh air or something like that. Then you get to meet this kid, I think he is your future RO. He/she is very kind and friendly kid/teen. I think I also remember, you can be shy, cold, etc. in your approach or response to the friendly kid. I think you have cancer? Or was it the kid? The art at the start or the background art, is like pastel colored…I don’t know if there’s butterfly on it or I’m remembering it wrong. I think the developer of it has paused the game…I think it’s like friends to lovers thing? And the story starts when you were younger then you grow older?
Thank you in advanced and sorry for my English :sweat_smile:

Out of interest was it a fantasy setting? I can think of one IF but it’s only vaguely similar :thinking: but if it’s not fantasy, definitely not this one.

No it’s not. But I wonder what IF is it you’re thinking?
I also found this interactive fiction on itch.io I think they used twine?

Adoriel’s Tears which is a twine game, but it’s only really similar in that you start when the MC is a kid and one of the ROs is introduced quite early. The MC isn’t unwell medically but does have a more magical issue (can’t remember the exact details).

It isn’t “we created a plothole” is it?

No, but thanks for the help. It’s actually A World Without You by jaunefleur.

Can you help me find this game? I remember a tiny bit of the story but can’t remember the title. The story begins with our MC being left at a church/orphanage, I forgot which, but it turns out mc actually have a mother. She left mc there because she was in the early stages of pregnancy and it was considered taboo by the community there. She was also a celebrity artist, so she only visited mc occasionally, sometimes even just sending gifts for Christmas. Fast forward to when our MC is an adult/still in school, I forgot which, they audition to become an artist too. But when the mother found out, she didn’t approve and threatened to cut off their allowance and pocket money. She also said that mc don’t actually know how cruel and vicious the entertainment industry is. That’s all I remember, and the setting seems to be between the 70s-90s.

maybe o your heavenly stars? sounds pretty similar, except the main story so far is around the 30s

Definitely gotta be “O Your Heavenly Stars”, though Jude does also have two other WIP stories that respectively take place in the 70s, and 90s: Excellent Cadavers, and We Wretched Creatures. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

This game I’m currently struggling to look for starts with MC as a kid. They have powers of some kind, we get to choose, and meets two RO’s. One blonde kid who’s charming and nice, the other one is black haired red eyes and a bit of a loner. I remember the red eyed RO having very strong opinions on something and during class, their power goes out of control.

I don’t remember the reason why, but at some point MC has to leave. So at the end of this festival you can choose to go to with one of the early ROs, you had the option whether or not to tell them that you were leaving.

I think MC was sent to live with their uncle? He isn’t loving and doting, just…kind of there? Like a stoic man who’s trying but it’s really awkward. It’s not bad though. Lonely, but not bad.

Then years later, MC grows up, goes to this school where you reunite with the two ROs who have differing reactions on the reunion depending on early choices. You meet other ROs like the cohort leader, and a prince at the end of the demo. Speaking of the end of the demo, all I remember is that there was a ball and we meet the royal RO who asks us to show them our powers. I’m pretty sure the royalty is someone MC’s country is having a bit of a dispute with.

Thank you!

@Lovely_Blood I’m pretty sure it’s The Marked. There’s demo available on cogdemos and itch.io. The creators tumblr is peonyB
