You’re not the only one. I’ve actually mentioned about that in the previous monthly thread; There are readers who would individually pick the eye color of every single RO if they were allowed to. I’ve even seen Twine IFs that cater to that obsession preferance by including hyperlinks that change a character’s features when clicked. It made me feel grateful for how limited ChoiceScript is, because if it was possible for CoG writers to do, it would certainly become part of the company’s “house style” within a year or two.
That said, have gender-locked ROs if you wish. Writing what you want may cause to you lose a few readers, but writing what you don’t want will likely prevent you from finishing the project at all. I find the former preferable to the latter.
Well, I have a new demo that needs feedback. I feel a little stupid asking you for feedback, since I already had you work as an unpaid cover artist, but the game is there if you want a 20k word read.
