Soulbound: A Ghost Story (WIP) [Updated July 4, 2025]

Wow, I somehow completely missed this when you first posted it, sorry.

To answer the question, I have no strong opinion on the matter, so you are entirely free to imagine her with or without excessively long sleeves. I do think the jacket in general might be a little big for her, if that helps.

Speaking of things that are too long, I’m nearly complete with the next update and I expect it to be released sometime in the next few weeks, unless something really catastrophic happens to me.


In the meantime, though, it’s come to my attention this exists:

Which, uh, might be a problem. Even though Heart’s Choice and Hosted Games are technically distinct entities (to my understanding), I strongly suspect that two games with the same supertitle under the overall Choice of Games umbrella will be vetoed on the grounds of causing possible confusion (similar to how they don’t let you use the word “Choice” in HG titles, since it’ll make it look like a mainline Choice game), and since the HC game is already in beta and set to be published well before this one, that obviously means I’m the one who’ll have to give.

Honestly, I guess it’s fair enough that the title will likely end up going to a more romance-focused game, since that’s a context the actual word is often used for. I support wordplay even if it’s not me who gets to do it.

That all said, I’m considering making the title Soulbound, which is assonantly similar and still basically accurate to the game’s premise, and more importantly, it’s not a real word, so the chances of it getting “claimed” in the meantime becomes much lower.

I guess I have time to make up my mind since this game isn’t going to be published anytime soon, but it seems like a good idea to make the change earlier than later for branding purposes—so don’t be surprised if the title suddenly changes one day in the near future, and you have to start referring to this game by another name.
