Which WIP would you bring back from the dead?

Ok, I played this like three years ago on Itch.Io and never found it again, even though I looked for it quite awhile. It was a WIP set in an authoritative dystopia where you just got a new job and had to look after your family through social-unrest and weird shenanigans (going into a room and pressing a button? IDK). I just know it was nothing like I ever played before or after, and it just seems like it vanished

Digging through my folder of saved Dashingdon WIPs, and I just effing realized I saved the AU minigame 7 Minutes in Heaven and Earth and NOT the main game More Things in Heaven and Earth. The author’s Tumblr is also dead. Apparently it’s being rewritten as of 2021, but that’s about it.

Hamlet my love! :sob:

We :clap: Need :clap: More :clap: Retellings :clap: Of :clap: Classic :clap: Literature :clap:

It’s quite sad that a lot of them just disappeared after dashingdon shut down.

I think it was called Pulse University. I loved it, especially the modifications. Probably one of best mecha WIP, I have played.

I know it’s been a very long time since you’ve replied and I don’t know if you ever found the link. But I’m still gonna reply with what I know lol, so last thing (long time ago) I remember was that the author lost(?) access to their files or something, and they have decided to uploaded a new one on their tumblr page, and their working on it at their own pace. Also, I sadly forgot the tumblr page.

One WIP I hope gets resurrected is A Nation Divided: A Civil War Officer’s Journey.

Ronin: Legacy of Ash

I don’t think you should be counting this wip among the dead, when the author last spoke in 2025 of october,

Interesting point and I just don’t know if Ronin: Legacy of Ash might return which was what prompted the post.

The story that got me into interactive fiction was Way Walkers: University, though I don’t know if there was ever a WIP for it. Every few years the author shows up and insists that part 3 is still being worked on, but after 13 years and counting, I don’t think many people have that much hope left.

To be honest, I cut away my hope for that game a long time ago, when there never fulfilled their promise of finishing that dlc for the festivals in way walkers one and way walkers wasn’t gonna last long especially when the game punishes you for killing off a certain vampire character in way walker 2 and then give you a shit ass promise that is ok you can be evil in part 3 but not in part 2

Myrk Mire. I think there was a lot of interesting themes that could’ve be explored in the more “calm” fantasy setting.

Forgot the title. But essentially, you are a vampire elder with no political interests who was sent by the other elders to experiment with living among humans. One of your powers is the ability to walk in the sun which is one of the reason you are chosen for the experiment. This is either a Choice of Games title or a manga.

Is it Choice of the Vampire?
