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.

And the sequel's plot would be Judas assembling a crew to escape hell, complete with an ending that leaves room for a new Biblical Cinematic Universe.

So, as somebody who pays for Prime for its other benefits, I get a lot of free games on a regular basis that I don't even have time to play, and because for GOG and Microsoft ones I get codes I can do whatever I want with I tend to share those whenever they get close to expiring. If you want something from the list below (Wolfenstein II on PC included, that code wasn't redeemed after claiming it) feel free to PM me for a code, first come first served. A lot of titles expire tomorrow so if nobody wants them they'll end up collecting dust in my library instead.
Also mods please don't ban me I'm not running a scam.

You could also start from the crucifixion as an opening scene and then branch from there while dealing with consequences of the betrayal and perhaps build on the reasons for it retroactively. That way you can keep the Bible canon mostly intact while making a CYOA with some actual options.

That really was the peak of internet culture and we've going downhill towards the chasms of brainrot ever since.
End Master's Prompt Contest 4 on 5/6/2025 11:31:48 AM
The idea is that you need to front some points as an entry fee, which will be returned to you once you submit a story. So essentially it's not only a penalty for those who flake out, but also a way to weed out noobs who make an account only to take up a prompt and vanish.

Once could argue that since the actual contest scene in your game consisted of like 2 pages and wasn't even finished properly the prompt shouldn't be counted (I'm assuming the first half isn't supposed to be the contest), but those are technicalities.

Congrats to Flux on winning and everyone else (except Suranna, duh) on submitting. I can't wait to dig into at least one or two of the long stories once I'm done moving.
Also as a side note I had 2 concepts for the contest story with the other also involving escaping the Asylum and some looping, but having actual endings. I just figured that for a shorter story too much dull exposition and other things like that would take away from the theme rather than add to it.

Ones I'd find most interesting to read and maybe write about:
- 22) A story involving a literally retarded protagonist - It'd be a really fun exercise in narration and dialogue to try and make it feel like said protagonist's own thoughts.
- 32) A story involving a retired villain - I'm mostly curious whether people opted into making that villain the protagonist, antagonist or a side character since the prompt doesn't specify and all are viable. I've got ideas for both the protagonist and antagonist options already.
- 50) A story about having cancer and trying to check off a bucket list before you die. Also make this into a game with a scoring system. (It’s cancer, just have fun with it!) - There's so many possibilities there and I think I'm gonna try for it during the next contest since I have a general idea how I would structure that game, but it'd be a longer project.
