The Bar on the Abyss - WIP [240k words] [Updated November 9th]

What about the chance to speak to a loved one again? Just like to have a final goodbye especially for MCs who were murdered and never had got to say goodbye.

Thatā€™s an interesting one actually. So, in this case, your MC wishes only to say goodbye without being resurrected?

Yeah. I donā€™t think my MC would want to live again, just have a chance to see her family one last time.

I love playing bitter angry vengeful types, so the idea of MC being willing to work through their literal afterlife to get their revenge is very appealing.

Thank you for the answer! Definitely something going to add as an option :smiley:

Playstyles such as yours are the reason I introduced the pension plan! I wanted to provide the MC with a stronger initial motive to manage the bar and stay there other than the hex (an element Iā€™m also going to revise in the upcoming update)

OMG, thank you so much! :heart: Iā€™m guessing you mean all the versions in the prologue, right? Either way, very heartwarming to hear, hope the rest of the demo will feel the same and Iā€™d love to hear your thoughts when you are done! :smiley:

Hello, lovely readers! Just dropping to wish you a happy 2025 and let you know that the next update is still in progress, but Iā€™m working on it every day!

Currently, I made a small break to develop the plot for the rest of the game because there are so many plot points, arcs and choices (I wish I could share more with you, but there are so many spoilers!)

I am also working on adding as much code as possible, so the next updates wonā€™t mean you wonā€™t have to restart the game every second update. So thatā€™s why it takes more time than before :slight_smile:

See you soon!
