Behold my profile.
There's, uh, nothing here right now. Someday I should probably find a balance between the old text wall, and...this. (she drew my avatar you know!)

Storygames

>DEVOTION
You harvest in the Arena. Every machine needs a function, and that is yours. Written for the Tiny 'Topia challenge.

A Stack of Cats
You are a man on a mission. The cats, they must be stacked.

A puzzling math and logic game I made just to put some of the scripting practice I've been doing to use. Have fun and please let me know if you encounter any bugs.

Should be solvable by middle schoolers, or those with same basic level of intelligence as a middle schooler.

Agent of Order
Orbiting a barren planetoid in a system full of nothing just past the edge of the frontier, The Last Outpost is just another refueling station. Strategically important, true, but on a routine stop you never expected to spend longer than a couple hours there, let alone a couple of days fighting for your life...

There are five epilogues, but some may be difficult to discover. Note that actions have consequences, but not always immediate ones. (And if you just need an End Game link, go play around with the probe.)

Facts About the Planet and the Solar System
A compilation of some little known facts about the solar system, as well as the debunking of a few myths.

In addition to the scientific explanations, there's a small story dramatizing it all.

Hopefully young readers will find this fun as well as educational. :)

(Might not be the greatest story ever written, but consider this: it got me 200 points.)

Featured Story Inseparable
It doesn't matter what they say...

Jack the Bean Counter
The bean, it must be found. For MHD's Fairytales contest.

Love is for the Birds
...and the squirrels. Sort of.



Written in six hours, for no other reason than to avoid consignment to the SHAME pit after my other Romance contest entry didn't want to cooperate.

Now You Gotta Deal With This S***

A tale told in verse. A text from your sister requesting a pick up from a party leads to a night of strangeness.

Inspired by Bucky's ballad contest. Though...I wouldn't call this a ballad. I'm not sure what I'd call it, actually, other than exceedingly stupid, and fun to write.

(Don't pay any attention to the scores, they're just for me to track which endings reviewers get.)


Read My Stories or Die!

HATE.

THE PURITY AND INTENSITY OF MY HATE IS LIKE A THOUSAND MERCILESS, UNQUENCHABLE SUNS.

AND YET, I ONLY NEED ONE...


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Silver Horn, Silver Hooves
When the weather is fine, you've been coming to this grove to drink from the pool for centuries now. Today, you meet a stranger and hear a story that changes all that...



A fairy tale adventure.



Another Damn Wolf Story
unpublished
I have no idea why I wrote this. All I can say in my defense is that it seemed like a good idea at the ti--wait no that's a lie, I said, repeatedly that this was stupid and shameful every time I mentioned working on it.

The truth is I needed to publish something before the end of the year and there is CLEARLY a burning need for wolf stories in the psyche of children using the internet. But then they write them badly, or make their wolves behave like clans of cats. So here is a simple straightfoward story of a young wolf leaving his pack in search of a better life. Maybe no one will ever feel the need to write another one now, or if nothing else maybe this will give them ideas for how to do it in slightly more minimum-standards-meeting ways.

Final conclusion however is that writing about some dumb animal with no agency is not something I'd recommend.

Male protagonist having sex? Never in all my days has this occurred in any form of media, is the author demented?!

Good to know CoG has been rejected by the youth.

What subjects do you like to read? on 3/26/2025 5:18:11 PM
Honestly it's always a little weird when people ask these kinds of questions. If you don't have an idea hooking you right now and keeping you awake at night driving you to nerdy distraction, you don't NEED to write. This is not a school assignment, and you're not on a quota. Whatever you write, for better or worse you'll get some thoughts on it when it's published. But just write what you want to write. It can be a lot of work to finish a storygame, it needs to be an idea you're excited enough about personally to see through. Nobody else can give you that.

There really wasn't any point to the list, I fed the line in quotes into an AI and spammed enter. At some point it got really hung up on fucked up babies, and once all the context was filled with babies it just repeated itself forever. There's waaaay more of that than what I quoted

What should I do for a prequel? on 3/25/2025 10:55:37 AM
You being the one that knows what the story is are also way more likely to have a preference for one format over another, I really doubt anyone else is going to have a strong opinion or the context to know what would be a better fit. And your first storygame seems to have been written with AI. Avoiding doing that for the next if you're going to post it here is really all I do have an opinion about.

What should I do for a prequel? on 3/25/2025 10:27:34 AM
Wow what you want to write. Not sure anyone else would have any particilar opinion about this, or why what anyone else thinks would matter to you either. You either have a particular way you want to tell your own story, or you don't particularly feel an urge to write it either way. In which case why not wait until you have something in mind that does interest you instead.

Can't believe this has been sitting here for hours and no one hit the commend button. Or were we just lazily waiting for Hatter to do it herself?
