Please note that I now have this:
→ Supporting me will allow me to spend more time selecting rare words, vintage metaphors, and aromatic literary allusions, decanting them carefully, and then pouring them with exquisite slowness over the back of a silver tablespoon into your cocktail glass, and less time grading freshman writing essays.
Add Tea and Scones to your Steam wishlist!
This thread is going to be the place where I can note the current progress of Jolly Good: Tea and Scones, and so that nobody thinks that it is imminent. This is going to take a few years just to write it–then we’ll have the whole editing/beta/copyediting thing.
Because this one is going to be longer than Cakes and Ale was.
Answers to frequently asked questions:
-
I intend to keep this thread updated in this first post to let you know my progress. I’ll try to keep the word count and status up to date.
-
This game will have eight chapters.
-
All of the love interests from Cakes and Ale will appear in it. So will your sponsor.
-
There will be one additional love interest, plus I am considering two poly paths.
-
There will be a few new characters spoken of but who did not appear in Cakes and Ale who will appear in this one as main characters.
-
You will be able to import your save, but the ability to save your game at the end of Cakes and Ale will not be added until Tea and Scones is very close to release. You will also be able to start with Tea and Scones if you like, creating a new character by answering a bunch of questions.
