The joy i felt when i saw my save intact ๐๐ im used to having my saves from.other games disappearing after updates. Thanks for chapter 8 and looking forward to playing chapter 9 ๐คฉ
It has nothing tl do with updates. Be careful using the in browser saves. Theyre saved to your local storage and if you delete your cookies or empty the cache or if your settings do it automatically those saves will disappear
To avoid this problem choose "save to disk" and your save file will save on your actual device
Glad I found this! Very interesting premise and I enjoyed the characters a lot -- but honestly: More than anything - I freakin Loved my MC. Don't know if it was intentional or not, but it felt like some Serious coding was put into just -- developing/tracking who they are, personality-wise, as you go. More than once, I was straight out lawl-ing at my sarcastic, baby Carter (almost wrote 'Cowboy Carter' XD) just being a witty butt who cares too much like her fah-ver.
Because I know no other way: It doesn't surprise me I ended up on the Z(ora) route. (Literally)Everything telling me NOT to be with this super stoic, obvious risk-for-me person? SIGN ME UP
Very much a slow burn given we're at chap 8 (and the end of the 1st book!), but I do hope for some kind of Big PUSH between MC/Z. I don't mind a realistic wait; but it felt like something significant was unlocked in Z in 8 that should give big returns in near future. (like that stoicism crumbling into itty bitty bits and Bold happening ๐) It's so hard to read Z and how they feel about MC (- want? shy? desperate? terrified?), everything hits so much Harder when it *does* show. Genuinely hope 9 gives us something juicy~ We've Earned it, haven't we, dear author? ;)
Thanks so much for sharing this with the world. Wishing the best and looking forward to where you go from here! โค๏ธ
lmao if you click the "save to disk" option, it'll save a file to your device and you can do that to your heart's content. Im not sure if it works the same way on mobile though
I literally sped through this! IT'S SO AMAZING! It may not be finished but thank you for sharing the story up until this point! Anyone who stumbles across it is in for a real treat! I keep going back to old saves so I can choose literally every option, I will be thinking about this story for weeks!
This is an interesting story. I do feel bad for ourselves oddly enough, getting roped into that mess.
As for the LIs, Renard caught my attention the most. His personality is the perfect mix of infuriatingly flirtatious and sincere flirtatious that I want to see more of.
I enjoyed going through this so much! The characters are so well written and the MC is also quite lovable! I love our grumpy Dad and the romance interests. But goodness you wrote The Kestrel so well that I just have no idea how to deal with them aside from throwing myself at them even if that is a bad idea haha! I am down bad send help!
But I also adore R! The playfulness and lax attitude is always a welcome sight especially during moments when they show their soft side. GAH. So GOOD!!
The way you wrote the supernatural and everything in it is just wonderful. I am SO intrigued especially since we're tackling with things that I have always been so fascinated about! GOSH. I NEED MORE AND I SHALL WAIT EAGERLY FOR MORE!
P.S I will protect our new friend with my MC's life!
if you dont let me romance that damn kestrel girl i swear to god i will start a riot. also, i had a second save where i was a little nicer to renard because in my first one i was really mean, and now i feel like starting a 3rd save where im nicer to zander cuz FUCK im so rude to him and i just now realized hes not that bad when i accidentally entered his room. i thought he was spooky and scary since he seems to be on bad terms with carter but i think im just putting to much faith in my old man and fucking up all possible relationships (platonic or not)
CANT WAIT FOR THE NEXT UPDATE, THE GAME IS GOING SO GREAT. KEEP IT UP !!!!
The Kestrel can get it ๐คฃ I'm so down bad for him ngl. I literally went goddamn when it said he has nipple piercings and tattoo, i was like okay sexy i like you
So far heading towards Renard as a romantic option... uh... okay, okay, lemme explain the hesitation... my boy (mc) don't like big boy gov org and v much listens to Carter. Ruling out Z from the equation ๐.
He likes the novelty of the Kestral, but again, he's way too hard headed to believe in unearned trust.
Renard is an odd case. Out of left field from what I'd usually pick while also being carter's unknown friend. (I'm shacking up w/ my father's work friend?๐ญ๐ญ๐๐ฎโ๐จ)
But at the same time! R is out here earning mc's trust despite all odds??? Seemingly not wanting something in return and maybe the confidence is a front I can pummel????
Hi! I have a question but imma start off by saying that so far i love this game SO MUCH, i LOVE the vibe here, it really stirs something withing me, the setting the characters, really. And i have been waiting for the next chapter upload, I'm not sure if i played the 7th ine, or the 6th one. Anyway, i didn't play for some time and when i saw the chapter 7th released i wanted to see if its a new one or i played it, but when i went to my saves there were none. I remember saving my progress for sure, but i don't know why its gone now and i have to start from the very beginning. Did anyone else have this kind of situation? Is there anyway to bring back my progress? (Pls help, im too impatient to start over again the whole thing๐)
I'm so glad that you're enjoying this! And thank you for reading
Do you mean saves to your browser (hitting save and then just clicking one of the numbers slots)? Because those get erased when removing cookies or clearing out a browser session (as far as I know). In order to prevent that, when you hit save, go down to the bottom of the save window where it says "Save to Disk". This will save it to your actual device. Next time when you start the game, just go to the saves and hit "Load from Disk", this will give you the option to select the save from your files. (For me, my saves usually go into my downloads folder.)
(And as far as I know, it's not possible to get the saves back. I'm sorry.)
I'm a game developer myself, and I find your art is amazing. I don't have the patience or the vision to draw, but I can spend hours programming without being bored. Well done.
If the art you're talking about is my writing, then thank you! If you're talking about the visual elements in the game, those are all free assets on Canva (in which case thank you anyway because I forgot to post a disclaimer for that here, even though I did post one over on the Tumblr).
it doesn't make sense, but the dilf chaser in me wants the father figure SO badly. like you made him so attractive and for what? this was sooooooo amazing!!!!!!!
i maybe liked it too much.. ik it's kinda hard to produce things like this but keep trying your best!1!1! i love it sm, can't wait for chapter 8 tbh. (totally not biased but Renard. also i made an ai of him on cai on my acc omgyaygoodbye)
Meeting wild Kestral was literally just Squidward yelling "OH NO HE'S HOT!!" and I have a feeling he's powerful or important and he's gonna do something at the parley...
I enjoyed it honestly way too much, I NEED MORE, but I know how difficult it is to write such a compelling and beautifully complex story. If anything, having being so enchanted by it, since I read all the available chapters in just a few hours, says lots about how great it is.
Such fun and lovely writing! I'm sorry to say the bad guy is gonna get me good, and the only reason I haven't been got yet is bc I ran out of words to read. So excited to see what you're cooking!
woaw i just played through everything thus far and this is sooo good! i very much enjoy the depth of every character, and how the world feels three dimensional. i esp love erebus, there's just something so endearing abt them.
Finally manage to have some time to read through the update and all I could say is... WOW! the storytelling, the writings, the characters is just-
I'm speechless, wordless, I just need to know when the next part is coming soon so I could go back to this world you're creating. Thanks for that btw, and please do take your time~
haven't finished it fully (Should be sleeping as I feed horses on the weekends and have work but uhm oh well!!)
I found a bug BUT I cannot for the life of me figure out how to upload Images/screenshots/whatever on comments?! Surprising comming from a chronically online 18 Y/O but eh not everyone is smart
But here it is while talking to the kestral the second time: " "[[Isn't that kind of pathetic? That you let the seelie decide that kind of thing for you?" |7.20][8 +=1]]" " and then the choice is unable to be picked
the other two choices Are able to be picked unlike the first one, don't exactly remember the choices I picked but I can always go back and check too if that helps :) (ignore any spelling mistakes its 1am (^^``)
No worries, someone's already shown this to me, so I know what you're talking about! Thanks for the bug report though. I'll be uploading a cleaned up version soon.
I don't recall making a comment for this IF yet so it's time it gets another positive review because the author deserves it!
I love the lore involving the fae and the supernatural - I love the MC relationship to (BAMF DILF) Carter LOL but seriously I think it's super sweet and I love the dynamic of an adoptee parent taking on a child with "baggage" (supernatural powers, unknown past, etc)
The RO's are distinct and I'd love to romance each one - the kestrel is incredibly compelling (which if that isn't fitting for a fae character idk what is) but my heart has chosen Renard and I'll stick to my lovely witch
SMALL SPOILERS FOR CHAPTER 7
I'm curious how many readers chose the deal with the kestrel or not - and how big of a consequence or reward they'll get from that action (I chose to accept and revealing that to everyone was actually so nerve wracking as if I was the MC lol - but again Carter was a sweet dad)
I am so enjoying this story, it has everything I like: magic, mystery, supernatural elements/creatures AND ROMANCE. So far the chapters were very interesting and I can't wait to read the next episode!
Ps: Why did you have to make all three love interests so attractive...
Wow I love Zander, I can't wait to hear more of his story! Also a small note, there are a couple grammatical/sentence errors for selected they/them pronouns, for example; In the scene where Carter suggests MC can see more than Renard, he says "They does that."
I'm aware of the grammar problems with the they/them pronouns. I've been going back and fixing them bit by bit and trying to be more conscious of not making them in the future.
Edit to add: I'm really glad you're enjoying the story and you'll learn a little more about Z in chapter 7.
My tastes are so predictable. I see a hot, snarky and clearly suspicious person and I want to kiss them silly. R, my darling, come here. ๐ป
Love everything so far, and the balance of mc powers feels just right - strong, but not op with plenty of room to develop. Can't wait to see if my theories on their past pay off. ๐
Love the ROs to bits, fascinating and beautiful people that they are, but I can't help but pick the options that let me hang out with Papa Bear Carter ๐๐๐
I really, really like Renard, but I adore Kestrel.
Loved every interaction with them.
I was wondering if the last released Chapter released was the 5. Because I saw on your Tumblr that you were working on Chapter 7, and I was confused/wondering if I missed the 6th Chapter, lol.
Can't wait to see more of the story/characters and I'm (not so secretly) hoping that the MC isn't just human.
I just looked at the Development log and the last in the List is Chapter 5. Honestly, I didn't look that much at the chapters when a new one started, so maybe I missed it. If that's the case, I'm sorry :(

happy w chapter 8 ^^
Glad I found this! Very interesting premise and I enjoyed the characters a lot -- but honestly: More than anything - I freakin Loved my MC. Don't know if it was intentional or not, but it felt like some Serious coding was put into just -- developing/tracking who they are, personality-wise, as you go. More than once, I was straight out lawl-ing at my sarcastic, baby Carter (almost wrote 'Cowboy Carter' XD) just being a witty butt who cares too much like her fah-ver.
Because I know no other way: It doesn't surprise me I ended up on the Z(ora) route. (Literally)Everything telling me NOT to be with this super stoic, obvious risk-for-me person? SIGN ME UP
Very much a slow burn given we're at chap 8 (and the end of the 1st book!), but I do hope for some kind of Big PUSH between MC/Z. I don't mind a realistic wait; but it felt like something significant was unlocked in Z in 8 that should give big returns in near future. (like that stoicism crumbling into itty bitty bits and Bold happening ๐) It's so hard to read Z and how they feel about MC (- want? shy? desperate? terrified?), everything hits so much Harder when it *does* show. Genuinely hope 9 gives us something juicy~ We've Earned it, haven't we, dear author? ;)
Thanks so much for sharing this with the world. Wishing the best and looking forward to where you go from here! โค๏ธ
I wish there were more save slots because im sure Z is a very lovely character but i want that thirties R i crave for their backpained body etc etc
lmao if you click the "save to disk" option, it'll save a file to your device and you can do that to your heart's content. Im not sure if it works the same way on mobile though
Omg i'll try it out(โ ไบบโ โ โขอโ แดโ โขอโ ) Z, my beloved, let's enjoy osteoporosis together
hey so i love you bc why are you so active ?????? The updates are so nice to see im so happy

Im glad to hear that! Next chapter will be public on the 31st (its currently available on patreon).
This is an interesting story. I do feel bad for ourselves oddly enough, getting roped into that mess.

"small town with a big mystery" is one of my fave tropes omg
cool dad!! cute love interests!! maaaagic!! this game's got it all
GOD IM SO LATE TO THIS UPDATE
if you dont let me romance that damn kestrel girl i swear to god i will start a riot. also, i had a second save where i was a little nicer to renard because in my first one i was really mean, and now i feel like starting a 3rd save where im nicer to zander cuz FUCK im so rude to him and i just now realized hes not that bad when i accidentally entered his room. i thought he was spooky and scary since he seems to be on bad terms with carter but i think im just putting to much faith in my old man and fucking up all possible relationships (platonic or not)

this shi fire highkey
please tell me we get to actually punch kestrel eventually
I like how you write the mc here. especially when mc and carter talks after talking to renard in chapter 2. it's really like me and my dad talking
the relationship banter between Renard and mc is like hyunjae and yoojin TT i like this so much, keep going author
it doesn't make sense, but the dilf chaser in me wants the father figure SO badly. like you made him so attractive and for what? this was sooooooo amazing!!!!!!!
๐ฆ
Let me be clear, not for the main character in the story. I meant me as a person
lol That's the case for most people I've talked to.
i maybe liked it too much.. ik it's kinda hard to produce things like this but keep trying your best!1!1! i love it sm, can't wait for chapter 8 tbh. (totally not biased but Renard. also i made an ai of him on cai on my acc omgyaygoodbye)

this is all to say consider supporting the author on Patreon!
Thank you for the lovely note!

Ps: Why did you have to make all three love interests so attractive...
Guess your only option is to do three playthroughs lol
Renard appearance has me thinking of alucard.
You ๐ค are ๐ค not ๐ค alone ๐ค
omg from which season and ep it is?
Wow I love Zander, I can't wait to hear more of his story! Also a small note, there are a couple grammatical/sentence errors for selected they/them pronouns, for example; In the scene where Carter suggests MC can see more than Renard, he says "They does that."

Love everything so far, and the balance of mc powers feels just right - strong, but not op with plenty of room to develop. Can't wait to see if my theories on their past pay off. ๐
You are not alone lol
Being presented a hot and "annoying" person is exquisite
i absolutely ADORE carter! shooting for zander but i need to know the lore behind carter and zander because im very curious๐ loved the update!!
Carter is best dad ๐ฅบ
Love the ROs to bits, fascinating and beautiful people that they are, but I can't help but pick the options that let me hang out with
Papa BearCarter ๐๐๐I love him so much- ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
You know, in theory I knew how popular Carter would be, but the response to him has been wild. I love it that you guys love him so much.
I really, really like Renard, but I adore Kestrel.
Loved every interaction with them.

Chapter 6 should be available to you? Let me know if you're having trouble accessing it.
I just looked at the Development log and the last in the List is Chapter 5. Honestly, I didn't look that much at the chapters when a new one started, so maybe I missed it. If that's the case, I'm sorry :(
Oh no worries hon! Yeah i dont quite know why it does that with the devlog, but 6 is available now.
$rheshse, my favorite character.
All bugs set aside, I'm loving the story so far.
