Marauder

Gay and Depressed in Prison

3rd place entry in Corgi's Gaybellion Contest

In this game, you play a very familiar character from the previous Gay and Depressed stories, who is now in jail. You used to be a side character in other people's stories, but now the spotlight is finally yours in this Gay and Depressed spin-off!

If you're interested in some more Gay and Depressed story games, check out the original by queenlatifah04, Gay Old Time by Darius_Conwright, Gay and DepressedER!!! by fresh_out_of_the_oven, and Gay and Depressed: The snow bunny society by Benholman44. All of the "gay and depressed" stories are stand-alone stories, so each one can be read separately, but I highly recommend you check these stories out!

Down by the river

unpublished

There's an old man called the Mississippi
That's the old man that I'd like to be!
What does he care if the world's got troubles?
What does he care if the land ain't free?

Ol' man river,
That old man river
He must know something
But don't say nothing
He just keeps rolling
He keeps rolling along"

-Oscar Hammerstein, "Old Man River"

In this story game, you play Samantha, a 25-year old engineer who's recently been through a rough breakup. Out of the blue, your grandfather asks you to accompany him on a river-boat journey where you two will traverse across a national treasure, our very own Mississippi River. Explore the natural beauty of this great waterway as you embark on a journey of self-discovery and finding love. Will you successfully find both on this wonderful river-boat adventure? Only one way to find out!

Falsely Accused:The Telenorian Kingdom's Worst Prison

unpublished

Submitted for Sherbet's Summer's End Synergy Contest.

In this game, you play as a thief. The princess has been kidnapped and everyone suspected that the big fat evil dragon kidnapped her. Naturally, since you and your crew are the dragon's known associates, you are put in the jail. But here's the thing, you're innocent. From the moment you're in jail, it's been one nightmare after another. Far from administering the justice, the Telenorian Prison is nothing but exploitative and conniving. Will you be able to survive and point the finger back on those that did you wrong, or will you succumb to the darkness in jail without getting the chance to vindicate yourself. Warning: This game can be emotionally disturbing and contains dark themes with many parallels to real life. Proceed at your own risk.

Just saw your review! I do think it makes sense, and you are able to articulate your reasoning/view on the story elements in an incredibly precise way! I envy that ability of yours, you do a really good job of laying your reasoning out and analyzing characterization/narration. It is very YA-coded, particularly with the romances between Luk and Mia, and Seamus and Shada. It's also very graphic at times, particularly with the depiction of Dr.Griffith, who's a terrifying villain. I liked the points you made, and they provide a really interesting perspective! I'm interested to see what Fresh, Shadow, Cat, and Clay think of this story!

Wow! This is certainly an interesting plot twist! Well, we still have the food theme going with cake and hotdogs , so I guess all I can say is, thanks for recruiting me! I hope to do a good job to justify your choice! And I really am honored to be chosen. I am going to miss my old teammates Liminal and Yummyfood, both of them have been doing great, particularly Lim as she's been reviewing a ton, but I'm sure whoever joins their team will do a marvelous job!

That's the hope! Every author should have solid constructive comments on their stories detailing exactly what readers liked and what readers didn't like.

Nice! I would recommend reading the forum posts in threaded view, because right now, you're replying to the most recent post. But it's not in the correct forum discussion thread, so what happens is it'll be difficult to find your posts. Typically to join the contest, you reply to the topmost post so that the organizers can see it easily, and in order to do that, you need to turn "threaded-view" on. Right now, you're replying to a mini challenge thread, but you should be replying to the actual summer reading contest announcement post. Everyone reads the forum in threaded view, which is why it's essential to look at the forum in that view so that you can better understand who's replying to who and who's saying what. There's a button at the top you can press that switches between the 2 modes. Underneath the site artwork at the top of your screen, you'll see 2 buttons: Unwatch and Threaded View. Simply press the threaded view button so that you'll see the posts in the order that they were intended :)

Glad you're back DBNB, and I hope all is well with you IRL. In your absence, Ogre seems to have taken up the role of chief provocateur, judging by this thread here.

Well done Yellow Cake! You just joined, but you're already doing a wonderful job! The contest is getting more competitive by the minute, can't wait to see how you'll use the swap card!

Flux, your terrorist review was interesting! I didn't even see the parallels the story had to Natural Born Killers until now.

Very cool! Endmaster, when do you think this story is coming out and how long do you think it’s going to be? I’m honestly not sure which one I’m more excited for, soulless or paradise fortress, but one thing is for sure. Both are going to be very great stories!

Cool! Thanks Cat!

Awesome! I'm really glad you're checking this story out and I can't wait to see what you think of it!
