They want to keep you bound in the dark, but you won't let them. You will get out, fight and flee, fail and die, then try again and again...

Grudges must always be the first to die when a storm arrives.

After years away you return home to your dying father, but will you be able to get your brother to forgive you for leaving? And will you step up to the challenge to inherit your father's most prized possession?

Written as part of the 2023 Spring/Summer Contest: Gone Fishin' it is a game with a much bigger focus on story than gameplay, but still there is a decent amount of endings and variation for something this short.

Also with the gracious extension to the prompt contest taking place I think I'd like to have Gryphon's request officially added to my queue. Diplomat more specifically since I feel like I haven't read much sci-fi recently. I'll still get around to it in the end of March/beginning of April, but it can be here as a reminder I already have a 6/8 length game so that people hopefully stop throwing long stuff at me for a while.

Bit later than I initially wanted but I had to give it one more try to make Zorek's dream come true. Anyway the review for Drunk Explorer Inn is done and while I feel like I ended up saying close to nothing in 600ish words it was somewhat inevitable for a spoiler-free review with how the game is built, but I do honestly recommend it so spoiling anything was out of the question for me. At least here I can openly call out this grave crime against a man and his dream. #Justice4Zorek

Though I never felt like you'd just ride off into the sunset unannounced after this long, it's a good thing to learn we're not actually losing a valued member. I probably already fall into the guilty through apathy group, so there's not much value in me taking sides, but I do share some of your sentiments towards at least the treatment of noobs (some might deserve it, some don't). At this point however the only thing that could maybe change this approach would be the site actually dying due to lack of traffic, which is unlikely. And I wouldn't worry about being banned, after your years of service one would need to especially petty to nuke you for not sharing their views about bullying.

True the scraper part of CYScraper would be pretty redundant then, but the core search engine could be ported in. Especially if people get used to the inferface. Far as the extension goes that is a pretty cool idea, but yeah better to leave it for once everything else is at a point where you're fully happy with it.

Looks and works great, maybe when one day somebody gets access to the mythical code base it'll be possible to integrate it into the site directly. That'd be something. Also it is a crime that a masterpiece such as Boobs!!! has basically no mentions in the dataset.

Happy International Women's Day to our talented, beautiful, funny, creative, smart, beautiful, lovely women that make us all better by being part of this community.

Please don't ban me

I'll take the compliment, but the two games I currently have published fall under "decent, but nothing exceptional" and "troll game" so keep your expectations tempered.

I'll add it to my own list of todos to avoid forgetting since the odds of me doing it in the club's normal time limit isn't likely.
