Mind Blind (01/31 Demo Update. A Story Where You Are NOT The Chosen One!)

[Baam]

Yep

Appearance:
Untamable red curls, light brown freckled skin, and hazel eyes with Elizabeth Taylor-level lashes. 5’1” and curvy. Affects a French accent and replies “Martian” when strangers enquire about her ethnicity.

Tbh what is her ethnicity? Because I can’t even imagine what she looks like as I’ve never seen a darker skinned red head before. Only pale vampire red heads that avoid the sun because they burn within a couple of minutes of direct sunlight…???

When I try to picture what she looks like it’s just a amorphous blur with red hair.

[SourPeaches]

I think she’s supposed to be Hawaiian?

[anon57188313]

Aha! I suddenly remembered that, Jo you had mentioned that K’s relationship bar didn’t reflect immediately, 'cause they need time to process what’s happened, and now it’s revealed that K is not a Ment, aha!

I don’t know what I’m doing, I’m just pretending to be a smartass.

Typos in Chapter 7

Summary

The Last time I read , was only updated till chapter 3. Love how the book is progressing

[ItachiUchiha]

From author’s post

DIRE WARNING: There are issues when playing from some save files in Chapter 6, when the question counter doesn’t reset and thus it’s impossible to continue interrogating Rosy. Either use an earlier/later save, or try clearing your internet cache. This is a saveplugin issue, so it’s not something that I can fix.

[XaosMinion]

Guys did you observe that the server at Mario’s changes on your preferred gender? A red herring?

[UnknownCharacter]

Found a typo

I think it should be “Room 6 is an”

[oreomilka]

Ok, so if I understand correctly if we don’t have another save we’re just screwed?

Urgh…starting from zero, yay.

[ItachiUchiha]

Noo the issue is only with questioning rosy. If you do get stuck at the error , loading back to beginning of chapter 6 works perfectly fine , I’ve tried.
When you get to that point , just don’t ask her all the questions , and skip directly to the last option.

This smile is to show my absolute terror.

(By the way, @wildelight, are you planning on adding neopronouns as an option for later drafts? I’m an amateur coder and I could write the code for that if you wanted; it’d only require changing two bits of ch1 iirc.

Edit: saw the reply — understood and no problem!)

[Haven]

Okay so I just remembered that you updated!! Funny thing is like 2 days ago I remember and I rushed to my bedroom to play it but I got distracted so now I remembered and now I’m rushing to play it nevermind that im currently in remote science class.

I have restartitis in interactive fiction, and get really tired of customizing my character over and over. Thus in MB I try to keep character creation as minimalized as possible. Pronoun selection means additional clicks, so I probably won’t be adding neopronouns. Thank you for the offer though!

Sally is Martian, as it says on her description. Her dads adopted her from NASA after she was discovered drifting through space on an tiny spaceship with nothing but a blanket bearing the letter “S”.

Or at least, this is the backstory Sally tells people. More serious answer: she’s biracial. Someone on the MB discord said that Carmen Lee Solomons was their faceclaim for Sally, and I googled her to discover that she’s pretty really close to what I imagine!

In other news: everyone should now be able to progress past asking Kim questions on replays. The conversation will still bug due to the saveplugin issue, but I recoded things so at least it shouldn’t stop progression.

[Valixon]

Hmm I have a theory and it’s just a thought yet unsure if I should say it as it regards to the one who might have hijacked mcs mind

[6267]

I will admit, I initially was doubtful and not thrilled about not being the “chosen one” like I usually am in these types of games… but I was pleasantly surprised. I’m captivated by the story. Every time I hit the next button I was afraid I’d end up at the thanks for playing screen and was disappointed once the demo ended. I need the rest!

Keep up the good work! I can’t wait to see when this is finished

edit: also Kenna is * chef’s kiss *, especially since I’m a sucker for dogs.

Called it. Soon enough She will join the group of superheros called the Avangers.

Wait…
