I’m pretty interested in this, the demo had me intrigued as well as the RO’s. A lot of customization options which is cool. I look forward to what happens next

Interesting, I’ll keep an eye on this.

Though I noticed that you can skip the “getting dressed” part by just going downstairs. I was a bit disappointed to not get any reaction at all… also not picking anything results in a missing word in the second to last scene.

Summary

I’ll see how I can fix that, I did this all in like ten hours yesterday so I was expecting some bugs I wouldn’t catch.

Interesting read
Will keep my eye out for more👌

I’ve just started reading, so more in depth comments later. But I had to stop and post about the customization in character creation. Fabulous. Especially the accessorisation.

As a watch guy myself, I love that you can choose to wear a watch. Well done.

Should be fixed now, let me know if you find any more bugs.

Well, now the game breaks here :joy:

Yep, I forgot accessories loops back, so it kept messing with the variable I used to make sure people actually chose clothing. Should be better.

God damnit now you got me back into the got me into it now I have to study what you got in this world it’s pretty much like I do for the Forgotten ones a long time ago I like talking about military strategies and carefully planning I wonder what you thrown into this world

Lots of lore will be discussed, it might be on Tumblr or in the story itself. I got no clue.
Lore is one of my favorite things

Is military service mandatory in this setting? Should we be assuming the MC chose to be a soldier?
