For Cinderella, there’s the Prince, Ingmar the revolutionary, and a soldier named Savith.

For the Prince, there’s Cinderella, Lady Emmalyn Spire, and a mysterious thief named Ilya.

Congrats on finishing the game! Username is fine.

Here's two more things I caught

If you have a harder heart than you did at the start of your pursuit of power because of how you worked so hard to get the throne. before your time, you certainly aren’t feeling weighed down by it on that fateful day when you are crowned.
Should this be one sentence?

It doesn’t seem like Ingmar is mentioned in the epilogue if the prince dies.

This story has officially been submitted as of today! It’ll stay up on Dashingdon for a bit, then come down closer to publication. I’ll update once I hear it is officially in the queue. For now, here’s an app icon and cover art(s) reveal!

Follow-up question: Are the romance options all hetero-locked?

1 Like

They are. Several reasons for it, ranging from a personal comfort level with writing any LGBT content (it certainly doesn’t bother me when others have it, but it’s not where I am) to the fact that I never liked gender-flipped romantic interests. The Prince and Cinderella are different characters and I want to reflect that in them having unique romantic offerings.

I’ll pay the price for it. Heck, I imagine I already have been. But writing romance at all is really, really new for me. I start trying to write out of my comfort zone and the subsequent awkwardness is liable to shine through in the finished product all too easily.

Is partaking in romance obligatory or just one path of several paths?

Going it alone is both something you can choose, and something that can happen to you if you burn enough bridges.

Official release date on the docket! I’m hopeful that coming out near the Disenchanted movie will help since it covers a bit of the same territory.

I’ll be the John C. Reilly to your Will Ferrell anytime, mate.

And it helps when you don’t get a Steam release. Even if it also hurts. But I did it to myself. Discovery requires experimentation.
