Self promo post incoming. If you're burnt out on weirdly sinister fast food ads, feel free to keep scrolling.
About a year ago, I decided to bite the bullet and try to teach myself how to make games using Ren'py. And the result was...
...spectacular.
I loved this game so hard. I still love this game. A Fairy Tale is short, silly, and so fucking stupid. Also, optional cannibalism. It also got the glow up of the century with the help of @gwygle.
But while that glow up was in progress I made another game with Ren'py.
I love Something A Little Super so much.
It was inspired by two of my favourite superheroes of all time: Superman and my mum. It was also a test to see if I could make Ren'py do what I wanted it to do... which was make more interactive fiction.
I think I proved you can, which leads me to:
Mermaids Motherfucker! (fun fact: that was actual original working title of Drown With Me).
The game is so very incomplete, but still so very dear to me. It's mermaids vs pirates, with cannibalism.
I promise I'm normal about cannibalism guys. Don't worry about it.
I'm also super in love with the main menu, but to see it you have to download the game, because screenshots really can't do it justice. It's weird and spooky and the exact vibe I go feral for when it comes to mermaids.
This time last year, I didn't believe I'd ever be able to make a game with Ren'py. Now I have three. And sure, they're short, and janky, and weird, but I love them all the more for it.
Plus: They're all free!
So, if you haven't checked them out yet, you totally should.
Anyway. That's it. That's my self promo post. How'd I do?

Trans people need to start naming themselves like puritans but like the other way. I need to start hanging out with bitches named Contempt and Decadence and Heresy

Whole-heartedly BEGGING writers to unlearn everything schools taught you about how long a paragraph is. If theres a new subject, INCLUDING ACTIONS, theres a new paragraph. A paragraph can be a single word too btw stop making things unreadable
EDIT: hey if youre here at the source of this post please read my webcomic, @killcount ! I post twice a week and I’ve been working on it for almost 5 years. Please check it out- as I want it to be my lifes work and I want to get away from my awful job and do my real passion for a living. Thank you

I saw this video:
And it got me back into a pirate mood, so I decided to make this kofi post public:
Even though I'm not working on this game right now, I'm really curious about how people feel about the different ROs. Both the fishy ones, the leggy ones, and the extra leggy ones.

with the way this is going bungou stray dogs will conclude in 2080 at seventy years old when everyone wins against the interplanetary alien Homer with the power of gay sex and friendship. and I'll still be reading it. and I will still make stupid theories. I will follow this series to the ends of the earth
