Lauded Sage Exemplar

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!)

>DEVOTION

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.)

Inseparable

It doesn't matter what they say...

Jack the Bean Counter

KOBOLD KEBABS

For Endmaster's 4th Prompt Contest. The story must involve a cooking competition.

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

A list of storygames with substantial effort put in, all written in the last couple of years and sorely in need of ratings and reviews.

A modernized guide to the forums. The path to internet popularity and happiness, and a few CYS specific do's and don'ts.

Since there's various tiny children bopping around on the forum again, just thought I'd mention this site a few of us have messed around with in the past. https://www1.flightrising.com/ It's another one of those cringy-yet-shamefully-addictive browser pet games like Neopets, except in this one you're breeding a bunch of different varieties of dragons that look like glitter encrusted rainbow vomit, and dressing them up and stuff. Just remembered an account I haven't touched in two years existed and have been looking through it again, and I don't know, I kind of like it. There's some occasionally neat lore and the economy is balanced via the ability to combat train and rid the otherwise infinite supply ofcdragons from the game for currency, but on the surface it's all very kid friendly to the point of stupidity. Dragons "breed" by magic and the exalting mechanic whereby you send dragons you don't have room for anymore to "be with their god" is totally NOT death, you guys, the dragon just went to live on a farm in the sky. Also, sometimes fleshy chunks off the animals in the entire ecosystems you rip through end up in your inventory, but those are just Shade-possessed spectres, no animals were harmed. You also absolutely don't melt down your dragons' beloved, trusting pets--some of which are sapient races with cultures of their own whose armee forces your dragons routinely rampage through--into a cauldron for alchemy ingredients, we don't need to talk about that. (I am pretty sure the devs are winking at the camera at times.) Typical gameplay is either five minutes a day of collecting items, clicking nests, and tossing excess junk (including dragons) in the auction house, or you can grind simple old school Flash looking JRPG style battles for hours to collect loot and level dragons for your elemental Flight leaderboard if you're INSANE. There's also this whole side of it where people write elaborate biographies for their dragons, for a different kind of insanity. There are various no pressure outlets for whatever your personal autism in that way, but the real game of course is about hoarding pretty pretty pretty dragons until you can afford to alter their genes with unethical magic and then put them in the perfect outfit. I think technically you need to be 13 to play, but Avo just ask your mom to unblock it for you and then lie when you register.

It was a copy and paste of the first result, yes, that was the joke. The "continue on Wikipedia" was the giveaway if it somehow wasn't obvious before then. But as long as we're here, what was the specific part of that you were confused by?

Well I mean just off the top of my head, Atra-Hasis is an 18th-century BC Akkadian epic, recorded in various versions on clay tablets and named for one of its protagonists, the priest Atra-Hasis. The narrative has four focal points: An organisation of allied gods shaping Mesopotamia agriculturally; a political conflict between them, pacified by creating the first human couples; the mass reproduction of these humans; and a great deluge, as has been handed down many times in the different flood myths of the Near East and Levant Continued in Wikipedia

Maybe you should make a new account with that name before you've done much with this one, because let's be real, if you're still popping in in four or five years you're going to be feeling the regrets for this one.

I still think it would be better and more enjoyable for both you and the readers to focus on writing something good rather than spewing the maximum number of words possible.

The main storygames page is the list of featured games from each category, and I'd otherwise suggest games rated 5 or higher. Or if you have a favored genre I could get more specific. Or just keep doing what you're doing if it works for you, but not gonna lie some of the oldest games are pretty bad and this seems a little masochistic.

Well that's a start. Now that you're using the site you should read some more games, that is allegedly what we do here. If you search for WARCHIMP it's a pretty fun one and the entire thing can be read in like 15 minutes.

I mean we're already at the point people are entering college without knowing how to write a sentence, or saying they "don't know how" to read a novel. There was some video going around recently of high schoolers freaking out because their teacher asked them to write five sentences in an hour.

I'm not sure this is a realistic idea, you're talking about spending ten hours a day at minimum hunched over a keyboard, and the quality is also going to suffer from being forced even if some reason your parents let you do this to yourself.

Why were you stalking beefhotpot anyway?
