I would love it if we get to have our doggo Toby 
It would be a cute (and useful for Sherlock) addition

There is currently another animal being implemented. Unsure if two could get messy. Though I love pets in games, so I will try to add it in
If I ever make a sequel I will promise a dog companion okay?

Aw, thatâs okay! Iâd be happy with other animals or no pets at all, donât worry. Just giving suggestions. Write what fits your story the most

Probably not until am 100% sure, I still need to see if twine works for me. Plan b right now is making a free CoG game (or maybe unity, but that would probably get too big 
)
And the demo will still be updated on dashingdon for a few chapters more. Though if considering a move is against the rules, then mods can move me to other games or something.

Considering a move isnât against the rules, as long as you donât officially say you wonât be working on it anymore on CScript. And even then, at most theyâll unlist your thread.
Regardless, if you switch to Twine, Iâm still up to betatesting! I test for Twine games too. Just contact me here on our private thread if you wish!

I rather have a cat that can get overly petted while I sit and ponder a case in a oversized armchair.

I could just full-on kiss you on the mouth, this game, itâs beautiful, I love it. If I were to look up at the gods and tell them exactly what I wanted in a game, itâd be this. You stay faithful enough to Doyle, but also let us play the Holmsian archetype the way we see it, are we more like Cumberbatch, Downey Jr. or maybe even our own rendition?

Hi everyone 
I have one question regarding the game and one more general regarding sexuality, which could then be relevant to the game.
Do you prefer playersexual ROs / all pan / other configuration?
In my head Iâm kind of thinking of it like this for the ROs:
With this configuration it would allow everyone to romance all the ROs, have a diverse cast in regards to sexuality, and it would allow me to write some specific scenes regarding sexuality.
(Opposite sex MC / same sex MC)
Lestrade: straight / gay (there is a plot reason that would make it more interesting for them to be gay/straight and not pan, but it is spoiler)
Watson: pan / gay (background reason)
Adler: pan (character reason)
H: pan maybe
And for nonbinary MCs it might be easiest to write pan ROs?
(And serious question: if someone is together with someone who is non-binary, what are their sexuality? sorry if that is rude to ask but I tried Googling and the article I found confused me more 
)
I would love any feedback and thoughts on this so that I can do the best I can on this topic for all of you 
*edit: pan might be better than bi here also! Is there a word for someone who is attracted to the mind and not the body? I feel H would be that.
Extra clarification:
the ROs are not gender locked. The ROs gender would be determined by the MCs preference and the ROs sexuality would adapt to the MCs gender. Does that make sense?

For me since weâre already allowed to gender flipped the other characters i think itâs best to just leave it open, make them pansexual where the MC of whatever gender and sexual orientation can freely romance them but itâs up to you. PANSEXUAL i mean i gotten confused there a second ago. @Doriana-Gray

Right, that would be the easiest. And so In that sense it might be best. Might lose out on some unique content tho. I do remember people disliking how everyone was bi/pan in Dragon age 2, but perhaps that was because of something else. Thank you for your feedback

Yeah, your welcome maybe just make some unique scene in their romance route depending on their character to avoid it being bland and shallow. Itâs inclusivity, also since itâs been a while are there any asexual route? since some people are not interested in that. As well do you plan on making some spicy scenes like s*x if so I think maybe add an fade to black option and implicit do you get what i mean? @Doriana-Gray

Itâs a divisive issue. Itâs down to individual preference. Personally, I understand the purpose of everyone being bi/playersexual. But I donât like it, it feels very cold. Sexuality is personal to each one of us. So I donât mind less freedom in my choice if itâs make the character more alive. So if you have reason behind your character sexuality, I would tell you go for it. As long I can still develop a nice friendship with my character of choice I donât mind.
Also to answer your question, wouldnât it be âpansexualâ liking someone regardless of their gender identity.

I agree, these stuffs tends to be a hot topic but in the end itâs up to the author in how the story goes and the players personal preference.
