hello all, i finally went and did it, created my first COG/HOG game, this took me days to write as i had endless amount of trouble with coding, and I needed a lot of assistance from AI, BUT not for generating my story for me, just for guidance on how to place code here and there, i had trouble with finding tutorials online and it was just…depressing, but every text you will see here was 100% written by me, (you can tell by the bad grammar…yeah i am not a native English speaker, so do expect some errors here and there), i am only saying this due to some rather ‘recent’ issues that involved the use of AI by another author, as i said it before, using ai for educational purposes is fine, but to let it do your own work for you is not…this is a passionate work of mine and i wanted to create everything by myself, which i did, just with some coding advice since i did not know where else to go to help for.
aside from that, here is my game, School Of Musika, more details below and also i added a new main character/Ro due to a ‘request’, just one because i couldn’t think of anything else
Summary
School Of Musika, a place where things like music, art, dancing and acting are valued more than anything, as someone who’s interested in those subjects, you’ve always wished that you could enroll into Musika one day, having had heard so many great things about it in your growing life, and that day came, when you were suddenly accepted into the school, you were then thrown into the school that you always dreamed of going to, but…it all turned out to be different than what you expected, lovely atmosphere yet the place feels decaying, strange colored skies and structures, odd rumors going on here and there, the school’s supposed shaky reputation and the teachers and the principal, whom you find a little odd, but nothing odder than the school’s forest, of which brings you uncomfortable feelings…is there something going on here, or is the nervousness of being away from your home is getting to your head…and what’s this stuff about ‘things’ going missing?

Characters
The Main Classmates So Far:
-Iris Lagrossi, the star student of the school and daughter of the principal, she tends to be professional and focuses on maintaining good grades, acting as a ‘prefect’ and making sure nobody is causing trouble, and doing her best to keep a perfect reputation for her father’s school, she likes to play on the piano the most, her father disapproves of it which makes her sad as she constantly tries to make him proud, she’s a little authoritarian but tends to get ignored by the rest of the students
-Juliette Delacroix, a very shy and introverted girl who’s a little chubby, she doesn’t talk with the others that much and has a tendency to eat sweets a lot, she plays with the flute, although she has a preference for art classes as she’s sometimes seen sketching around the campus by herself, Juliette feels comfortable with her lonesome but is very self-conscious about her weight and her lackluster skills in playing with her flute, she slacks behind in her dance and yoga classes and is often ridiculed by her classmates, she’s a very sensitive person, although she constantly tries to improve herself
-Calypso, an odd girl who’s often described as cynical, mean and careless by the other students, but in the other times, she’s as sweet as sugar, it’s like she has a personality switch, not much is known about her past other than the fact that the principal knows her well, the students tend to avoid her all the time, and Calypso avoids them too, as she would rather dance in privacy, or play with the piano at other times, she targets Juliette at times, but targets Iris all the time, for some reason.
-Soo-jin Freud, just the school’s clown, a jokester and a prankster who is genuinely nice, but often gets into trouble due to his antics, he has a tendency to use his hands as drumsticks and make a lot of noises, but that just shows his love for playing the drums, Soo-jin likes to just goof around, but is also a bit easily to be shut down if someone ever yells at him, he can be soft at times, and very angry at other times, nobody really understands how he got that permanent black-eye on his left eye…don’t ask him about it
School Staff:
-Luka Lagrossi, the principal of the school and its founder, a former musician who loved music so much that he invested into creating Musika, to show the others the beauty of music and such, he’s a fun person, but often tired for some reason, he likes to teach music classes himself at times and is very cautious about his school as he wants to make sure that everything is going well, and that his students are doing well, and only well…
-Ramon Lastimosa, the acting teacher and the organizer of most school plays, he’s a little strange yet intriguing, sometimes the students don’t know when to tell whether he’s acting or not, Ramon tends to joke a lot and be dramatic, but he can also be very demanding when it comes to expecting the best from his students, he’s carefree but a little off…
-Lydia Tremblay, she’s the science teacher, she’s shaky and anxious most of the time, absolutely hates touching people and germs, she has a terrible attendance record when it comes to her own lectures and is very strict about not letting students in the science class unless she’s around, her coffee is the only thing that keeps her going
-Katherine O’Sullivan, the dance instructor, and the yoga instructor, she’s a very energetic person who loves teaching her students how to stay fit and be productive, when she’s not teaching her classes, she likes to take the students out into the school forest and make them participate in fun activities, jogging first thing in the morning is her favorite thing to do!
Delphine, the cook, she acts as an auntie to the students, has no tolerance for foolishness and would definitely smack someone in the head for fowl language, she has a soft spot for Juliette
Romance Options
to be honest, i like writing romance in my spare time, and i am a very huge fan of the romance in both of the ‘Keeper Of The Sun’ games, so you can expect some heartwarming romance chemistry in the game, which would possibly include the POVs of the non-playble characters, the romance options will be of your fellow classmates, including Iris, Juliette, Calypso AND Soo-jin!
Content Warings
-Possible Depictions Of Death And Gore
-Mature Language
-Body Dysmorphia(?)
-Underage Characters
-Mentions of Child Abuse
now keep in mind, this is only the demo, and i haven’t got that far into implenting some of the promised features yet, such as writing songs and forming a band, but i hope to do it once i go back to writing this game again, and some other things to keep in mind, my grammar is awful at times, there migh be code problems that could break the game, which honestly i don’t know of, i have tested the game 55 times now and made sure that i fixed all errors by hand, but if there is anything off then please let me know.
also there is a few copypastes in the game, from my own fanfic based on this game, just altered to fit into the game of course.
here is the game’s link and i hope everyone enjoys! https://dashingdon.com/play/ogplush/school-of-musika/mygame/
(do let me know if there is any issue with this topic, i am still new to the website)
