I just found this game! I'm literally at the beginning. Literally. But still, WOW. Absolutely love your writing <3
I like how you wrote the character customization. In other games they feel rushed for some reason and there just because...
It's taken me half an hour to write this trying not to sound like a mean idiot XD lol not to the other authors, I mean. I'm not! I love all games like this! D:
Hello my friend! I'm glad you found it and are enjoying it! I'm happy to hear you like the customization; I agonized over how to do it. They're a bit tricky to make them feel organic! Good luck with your game, dear, there's lots of inspiration to be found out there. ^_^
but also the writing is so goood i'm in love! the pace is good and everything is just *chefs kiss* I'm glad to see a IF that updates more regularly than once anually! Can't wait for ch5!
I'm sorry, my dear, I have made him too charming. He was very nearly the first hook-up option too!
I am thrilled that you are loving it. I love working on it so much (I don't do much else with my free time other than read other IFs, honestly). Once chapter 5 is out and Rune joins the cast, I may take a slightly longer break to work on a second IF project. Trying to be sure I don't burn out on God-Cursed so it gets me at my best. ^_^
Can't believe I only found this now, but maaaan it's so good!
I'm so intrigued with everything and everyone. While reading I was so afraid that something would happen to Kip and Dov, and still am, by thank gosh nothing went wrong.
Will keep an eye on this for sure, it's such a good story!!
THIS IS SO GOOD AND SO IMMERSIVE... I may have played this like 10 times now the story is so good, and I love how each character is so different. Zahn is so cute i love them i would put my life on the line for them frfr :3 cant wait for more!!
This was Amazing - so glad to see it’s being actively worked on as well! I was hooked from the first bit and I am so impressed with the level of detail/depth you not only put into the characters — but HOW you introduce them. Da and Papa are Everything and there’s honestly not a character I don’t like (looking at You desk-biter girl.) I teared up multiple times and I loved the variety of personality to the MC. (‘Voluptuous’? HELLO~) I think it’s Beautiful being able to feel a writer’s love for the content in their work; Well Done.
Eagerly looking forward to more, but also I hope you enjoy your break. Definitely adding this to my collection and rooting you on!! ❤️
I'm also so glad that someone has finally mentioned desk-girl! I laughed my ass off after writing that, lol.
I do quite love this project and my world and characters, and am happy that comes through to you. I can't wait to share more about this tale. I've been relaxing and reading some other IFs, but I am already getting the itch (pun sort of intended) to get going on chapter 5! ^_^
i loved EVERYTHING tbh. your writing is great and very evocative. it feels like i'm reading an interactive novel... which is basically what this is already but yknow what i mean. a novel that's so cool that i also somehow get to interact with
it was awesome to see MC's skill/hobby come into play later down the line. it was like a little treat every time it was brought up, and the way you included compatibility was SUCH a nice surprise. archery, cooking, logging... all of it was really fun. it really feels like these decisions (even the soap scent!) actually have some weight in the story, not just a one-off mention to give the illusion of customization.
all the options for the curse mark were very interesting too. i'm very intrigued about the differences between each one (and I definitely noticed duri's different pet names for us, depending on the curse mark)
i also really appreciate being able to skip particularly triggering scenes! it's such a small detail but a really nice option to have
and oh my god all of these ROs have me twirling my hair like "heehee... hi..." which is an impressive feat. usually i'm only torn between two bc my polyamorous heart has difficulty deciding
i'm such a sucker for childhood friends who have grown distant despite their intense fondness for each other! and oswin is like... he's the kind of emotionally tortured that has me both exasperated and yearning. like... SIR. just TALK to me before i punch you and then smash our faces together. and myyy goddd... he's so protective of MC that even seeing his reactions to them flirting with other people has me drifting back towards him bc he's so cute. (GRABBING DURI WHEN I TURN THE TABLES ON THEM AND THE MALICE IN HIS EYES? HGHGHHH PIN ME DOWN AGAIN PLEASE)
nathan is also a really fun addition. suave older men with a colorful and expensive wardrobe can easily convince me into a life of crime. i had a lot of fun flirting with him (oh my god the bathing scene) and i very much missed him when he had to go on his way. COME BAAACK!! LEMME SMOOSH KISSES AGAINST YOUR CAT AND ELK. TELL ME MORE ABOUT YOUR LIFE. the honey cakes had me absolutely swooning. man had NO reason to croon so dirtily like that as he slipped his fingers in MC's mouth. that should be a felony. he should be in prison.
and speaking of honey cakes... it sure is a coincidence they're MC's favorite little treat, because zahn is absolutely a honey cake!!! they're SO SWEET AGH. they're so darling and genuine that it makes me want to scoop them up and bite them bc of the cute aggression. i want to fix up their special cloak for them and i want to handfeed them until they're at a healthy weight and i want to fuckin puNCH THE ACCEPTOR IN THE FACE. FUCK THAT GUY! zahn is going to come home with me regardless of our relationship status and they're going to explode with how welcoming and kind everyone is
duri... oh my god they're so cool. i know the MC was dealing with a lot of things all at once in that wolf reveal... but just a moment of clarity would have been sooooo funny. "oh gods i just treated this demigod like a pet dog--"
hilarious. i really like duri; their flirtations are a subtle shift from nathan's, and idk it's nice. i like how devious they are too while still being compassionate for their wolf family. you've got me punching the floor bc i was unable to give them a honey cake but this is okay... it's okay... i will heal from this betrayal /s
AND SINCE ALL OF THEM ARE SO FUN AND DIFFERENT, I AM VERY EXCITED FOR RUNE. i wonder how they will react to MC's friendship attempts... let alone flirting attempts. and omg the shift in the group's dynamics... what will happen if duri flirts with rune?? who will rune closer to first (besides MC)??? i'm in suspense
ANYWAY SORRY FOR THE. YKNOW. WORD VOMIT. I EAGERLY AWAIT AND SUPPORT YOUR FUTURE WORKS!!! thank you <3
Oh good gracious, my friend you've made me smile, laugh, and cry all within the span of time it took to read your comment. I'm am elated that you've found so many things to love in God-Cursed.
I'm going to work very hard to make sure the feel of the story, especially the interactive part, stays consistent. I want the MC to truly feel like the main component of your experience through this tale, and those little details about them are important.
There's more characters to love and hate coming up and some twists and turns that I hope you will continue to enjoy!
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences, thoughts and feelings with me, I really appreciate it and you've brought me a lot of joy with your enthusiasm. ^_^
Hi, it doesn't seem Itch.io lets me PM so this was the only way I could reach you Sorry to bother you, but would it be possible for you to alter your username? I've been using this name online since 2021 and I've recently had several people think we're the same person. I've been trying to distance myself from the gaming community and post my art/music under this handle, so I'd really appreciate it if you could tweak your username a bit since it seems this is a fairly new account. Thank you!
i don’t know how there would be several people who have mistaken me for you considering i don’t really have a presence on here. i am admittedly not one of those fbi girlies so i was only able to find your youtube, and that’s only four months older than mine lol. and i don’t think even leetspeak could succeed at differentiating our usernames even more, so i would have to change it entirely.
but if you’re that attached to the username, it’s fine. i’m merely neutral about it anyway so… you’re welcome i guess. good luck on your creative journey.
the way i switched up the moment duri appeared- giggling kicking my feet going apeshit yk. also i am looking. and im not ashamed. and the nickname change based on mc's personality??? love it. i got cloud when i first met him and little bramble when i restarted for him and screamed. bye-bye oswin srry not srry :P (jk all characters are so well written im looking forward to playing all routes!! but for now.... hi duri :D
edit: OMG NOT OSWIN COCKBLOCKING ME WDYM CUT IT OUT DOG NONONO DONT CUT IT OUT hj hes such a killjoy </3 omg i need to replay his route with skill in sword and win the fight
Agreed, gray hair is so underrated. Normally in other IFs I read it's usually the classic: black,light brown, dark brown, and red. And if you're lucky you get white as an option. Sorry for the rant lol. And thank you for making this wonderful story!
This is so good I'm crying. Spent all night and morning rereading it and I regret nothing. Characters' dynamic is so poetic, I beleive in every word and feel every scene so deeply I JUST AAAAAAAA Also big kudos for MC angst, you keep your fans well fed
Loved interaction with Duri. Loved new lore! Loved to be able to pet the heck outta wolfs. Also glad to see all fun time at the end of the 3rd chapter being finished. I'm still in awe of mc's and oswin's chemistry and heartbreaking history together. Im a sucker for this kind of story, and i wonder what did he lived through, what exactly made him acting like such an idiot. I've got my guesses, and I will wait. I wish he talked about choice in flowers for tea ;)
Oh, I adore Shadow btw. Point for being able to snuggle the kitten.
In Slavic folklore there is Grey Wolf, sentient and wise creature, that helps protagonist of tales. I feel connected to Duri in this regard lol.
Thank you so much! I'm gonna reread it all for Zahn scenes. And then rerun for Duri's antics.
Also. I read your nswf piece in the beginning. Hot damn 🤌🥰
I'm so glad you loved it, my friend! I can't wait to reveal all of Oswin's baggage. He's frustrating to me too because you really have to slowly chisel away at that damn wall of his. Even I think he needs to just fess up, lol.
Your favorite flower will come up later, so don't you worry. Oswin doesn't know yet that it's your favorite.
Enjoy your re-reads! There's some fun things in there to discover for all of them.
(Also more nsfw stuff to come, we just need to get the MC to a safe place first, lol. Glad you liked it, I was nervous about my smut quality and have big plans for future moments.)
This IF is the best just by the fact that you can snuggle, pet and talk to animals you've met. Thank you for satisfying my toxic need to pet anything that looks friend shaped enough for me. I swear, I'll die happily for a chance to pet a shark. P.S. Miss my dads.
Always gotta give our furry friends some love, I agree! Do not care if I get bitten, lol. You are very welcome, and if the MC winds up in the sea at some point...I could arrange some sharks. ^_^
Oh, this update is just SO GOOD! I love Duri's introduction, especially since I kinda really thought they're a wolf trying to eat the PC. I only just realized they're an RO when their golden eyes were emphasized throughout the narrative and when I checked the list of ROs and found them there. But besides that, I'm enjoying Oswin's overprotectiveness towards the PC.
Plus, the honey cakes scene. It made me grin like an idiot. 😆
Yay! I was hoping to make it a fun surprise. It's been hard to keep their nature under wraps for so long, lol. I debated about putting it in their description but wanted it to be more of a little bonus fun thing. Glad you are having a good time, my dear! ^_^
I literally started foaming at the mouth when I saw the update. I love your writing so much!! Was about to go to bed but I decided I no longer need sleep tonight <33
Hello friend! There will be more than 3 chapters for sure. Chapter 4 is nearly done as we speak. That's what I've been buried in for the last couple months. The whole story, I anticipate, will be around 12 chapters with my current plan. There is a basic outline for the entire story and I make adjustments and fixes as I write. It may end up being longer, but I can't say yet. It is already huge and just keeps growing! ^_^
just finished a first run of this game—I love it so much!!!! The writing is lovely and Oswin is my beloved. I kept accidentally calling him Oswald in my head, lmao. Just learned about the name reactions—gonna try and find as many of those as i can!! I love a good Easter egg
Thank you, my dear! Glad you're enjoying it! You know, Oswald is not a bad name for him - close enough. ^_^ Good luck with the easter eggs, I don't even remember half of them without looking, lol!
i played this for the first time recently, then i replayed it again, and again, and again.. i love this!! its really well written and immersive and its so fun how much character customisation u can do!! and i discovered that if you choose ravi as your new name, oswyn will comment on you choosing the childhood nickname he gave u, i didnt anticipate it being recognised at all so it was such a cool and lovely detail!!! im rlly rlly looking forward to updates on this! now back to replaying it again..
I am so glad you loved it, my dear! Our dear swordsman has a warm spot for that name. I'm glad you found that and are enjoying your replays. Chapter 4 is making great progress, so I hope to update in the near future. ^_^
Gods, of course I will be hooked on the reculant and not-so-secretly caring childhood friend... to be frank, I'm gonna read the heck out this story for him.
I adore mc's dads. And my true bbf. I am also very invested into mc's health. Good job onto spiritual things, I liked the worldbuilding and more to come!
wow!!! i haven't read anything THIS good in a while, i can't believe it's only demo so far 😭 i'm genuinely so invested in the plot and the world that's being set up. also not only the ROs but all characters are so endearing and lovable :') our fathers and our best friend have especially warmed my heart
Thank you, my dear! I really appreciate that. I can't wait to share more of it with you! Chapter 4 is making great progress and the remaining moments for 3 are in the oven, lol. ^_^
love this sm !! and omg, is that a zelda reference if you name your mount "epona" haha?? if so, i love the little detail + it makes me wanna input all sorts of stuff to see if there are other little references.
Yay! You noticed! It is a Zelda reference! There's a few little references in there. A couple are a bit obscure. Let me know if you discover any others! ^_^
Hey dear, would you mind making a summary of all the Easter eggs you put into the story at some point? I didn't even know there were Easter eggs before reading the comment section. I follow you on tumblr too. That would be lovely for my sixth re-read of the story. Thank you
Absolutely, my dear! There aren't that many, but it's something I'd like to add more of as things develop. I'll try to pop them on Tumblr when I get some time. Sorry for the late reply. I apparently got logged out of itch on my phone. I was wondering why it had been so quiet lately! >_<
HELP WHEN I SAW THE END THAT SAID "end of demo" AND THEN THE OTHER "chapter 4" I THOUGHT I WAS SAFE AND HAPPILY CLICKED IT ONLY FOR IT TO SAY NOTHINGS THERE😭😭😭WE NEED TO CONFESS TO OSWIN

i am literally so smitten with oswin
There's a lot to love there, my friend. 😊
I just found this game! I'm literally at the beginning. Literally. But still, WOW. Absolutely love your writing <3

This isn't random, okay? I'm writing my own game and I can't help but notice all kinds of details ;^; XD
Hello my friend! I'm glad you found it and are enjoying it! I'm happy to hear you like the customization; I agonized over how to do it. They're a bit tricky to make them feel organic! Good luck with your game, dear, there's lots of inspiration to be found out there. ^_^
my save is gone TT. Someone help me
So sorry my dear! Was it a save from before the update?
why is Nathan not an endgame option I'm sobbing
but also the writing is so goood i'm in love! the pace is good and everything is just *chefs kiss* I'm glad to see a IF that updates more regularly than once anually! Can't wait for ch5!
I'm sorry, my dear, I have made him too charming. He was very nearly the first hook-up option too!

that's probably for the best. take your time and good luck!
Can't believe I only found this now, but maaaan it's so good!
I'm so intrigued with everything and everyone. While reading I was so afraid that something would happen to Kip and Dov, and still am, by thank gosh nothing went wrong.
Will keep an eye on this for sure, it's such a good story!!
Well I'm glad you're here now, things are really heating up!
I am glad that you are enjoying it, and know that I am committed to not killing off our beloved fathers (everyone else is fair game though). ^_^
if something happens to Lakota...
He'll be fiiiiine.
probablyoh my god
Man Duri has me flustered as fuck 😳😳😳
Then they are doing their job quite well, my dear. ^_^
I'm loving this game. FemDuri is my favourite at the moment.
Duri has proven to be such a heart-stealer! I'm very proud, lol. ^_^
THIS IS SO GOOD AND SO IMMERSIVE... I may have played this like 10 times now the story is so good, and I love how each character is so different. Zahn is so cute i love them i would put my life on the line for them frfr :3 cant wait for more!!
I'm thrilled you are sucked in, my dear! More cuteness to come. ^_^
This was Amazing - so glad to see it’s being actively worked on as well!

nathan is also a really fun addition. suave older men with a colorful and expensive wardrobe can easily convince me into a life of crime. i had a lot of fun flirting with him (oh my god the bathing scene) and i very much missed him when he had to go on his way.

Oh good gracious, my friend you've made me smile, laugh, and cry all within the span of time it took to read your comment. I'm am elated that you've found so many things to love in God-Cursed.
I'm going to work very hard to make sure the feel of the story, especially the interactive part, stays consistent. I want the MC to truly feel like the main component of your experience through this tale, and those little details about them are important.
There's more characters to love and hate coming up and some twists and turns that I hope you will continue to enjoy!
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences, thoughts and feelings with me, I really appreciate it and you've brought me a lot of joy with your enthusiasm. ^_^
Hi, it doesn't seem Itch.io lets me PM so this was the only way I could reach you
Sorry to bother you, but would it be possible for you to alter your username? I've been using this name online since 2021 and I've recently had several people think we're the same person.

i don’t know how there would be several people who have mistaken me for you considering i don’t really have a presence on here. i am admittedly not one of those fbi girlies so i was only able to find your youtube, and that’s only four months older than mine lol. and i don’t think even leetspeak could succeed at differentiating our usernames even more, so i would have to change it entirely.
but if you’re that attached to the username, it’s fine. i’m merely neutral about it anyway so… you’re welcome i guess. good luck on your creative journey.
Thank you so much!
the way i switched up the moment duri appeared- giggling kicking my feet going apeshit yk. also i am looking. and im not ashamed. and the nickname change based on mc's personality??? love it. i got cloud when i first met him and little bramble when i restarted for him and screamed. bye-bye oswin srry not srry :P (jk all characters are so well written im looking forward to playing all routes!! but for now.... hi duri :D
edit: OMG NOT OSWIN COCKBLOCKING ME WDYM CUT IT OUT DOG NONONO DONT CUT IT OUT hj hes such a killjoy </3 omg i need to replay his route with skill in sword and win the fight
I couldn't have said it better myself lol. And man when I went to his description......GRAY HAIR!? lol I can't.
Not enough gray-haired ROs in my opinion. I'd expect more in any other IF I write - some salt and pepper action maybe too. ^_^
Agreed, gray hair is so underrated. Normally in other IFs I read it's usually the classic: black,light brown, dark brown, and red. And if you're lucky you get white as an option. Sorry for the rant lol. And thank you for making this wonderful story!
And Duri is beyond happy to have you look ;)
All the ROs will patiently await their turn with your MCs, but Duri loves to be first.
Enjoy your future victory over Oswin, my dear! ^_^
i love this game so much pls don't die before finishing it 🫶 (also i am forcing myself to stick to Oswin and not go absolutely fucking feral for Duri)
LOL, no joke I'm always paranoid about kicking it early, but this has become a legit fear. I NEED to finish it.
Duri does like feral; they'll wait for you ;)
mwahah >:)
Oswin>>>
Oswin ^_^
I thought oswin was my fav but damn duri really fighting for that spot in my heart right now
SAME
It's the snaggletooth, lol
Temptation is one of their powers, lol
This is so so so good!!!! 💙
Thank you, dear! Glad you enjoy it! ^_^
This is so good I'm crying. Spent all night and morning rereading it and I regret nothing. Characters' dynamic is so poetic, I beleive in every word and feel every scene so deeply I JUST AAAAAAAA Also big kudos for MC angst, you keep your fans well fed
I love this so much, but be sure to rest too! Don't end up like MC, lol (or do and get carried around by a love-interest, I don't judge). ^_^
sticking with one RO is so hard, but I’m determined to see Oswin through lol
The others will always be waiting for their turn ^_^
Ive decided that oswin is a werewolf and thats why he's weird
That is fitting in a way...
Omg, i love the first interaction between Oswin and Zahn, quite hilarious and then the mc going between them 🤣❤️.
They're a handful, MC needs a rolled newspaper and a spray bottle to keep them settled.
a new chapter. Hooray!
It's been an adventure for sure!
Aaaaaaaaa. Yessss new chapter, it was só cute and i love jealous Oswin and Duri is pretty perceptive. Plus puppies!!
Everything is better with puppies ^_^
Loved interaction with Duri. Loved new lore! Loved to be able to pet the heck outta wolfs. Also glad to see all fun time at the end of the 3rd chapter being finished. I'm still in awe of mc's and oswin's chemistry and heartbreaking history together. Im a sucker for this kind of story, and i wonder what did he lived through, what exactly made him acting like such an idiot. I've got my guesses, and I will wait. I wish he talked about choice in flowers for tea ;)
Oh, I adore Shadow btw. Point for being able to snuggle the kitten.

(Also more nsfw stuff to come, we just need to get the MC to a safe place first, lol. Glad you liked it, I was nervous about my smut quality and have big plans for future moments.)
I would die for Zahn
Awe, you'll make the cry with that kind of talk. Not many have been willing to do much for them before. <3
This IF is the best just by the fact that you can snuggle, pet and talk to animals you've met. Thank you for satisfying my toxic need to pet anything that looks friend shaped enough for me. I swear, I'll die happily for a chance to pet a shark. P.S. Miss my dads.
Heck yea, miss them dearly. Hope da's leg is okayish now!
Da is getting by pretty well, still trying to escape the house too, lol. (He's trying to keep Papa's mind from worrying about MC)
Always gotta give our furry friends some love, I agree! Do not care if I get bitten, lol. You are very welcome, and if the MC winds up in the sea at some point...I could arrange some sharks. ^_^
PS: your dads miss you too, like so much.
Was super enjoyable. All three ROs are fascinating, and the story is really intriguing can't wait for more content.
And I can't wait to get you that content, my dear! You'll be able to collect the whole set before long! ^_^
Oh, this update is just SO GOOD! I love Duri's introduction, especially since I kinda really thought they're a wolf trying to eat the PC. I only just realized they're an RO when their golden eyes were emphasized throughout the narrative and when I checked the list of ROs and found them there. But besides that, I'm enjoying Oswin's overprotectiveness towards the PC.
Plus, the honey cakes scene. It made me grin like an idiot. 😆
Im with you about Oswin. God, the man has an iron will. I would crawl into mc's lap after this for sure!😔🤣
Yay! I was hoping to make it a fun surprise. It's been hard to keep their nature under wraps for so long, lol. I debated about putting it in their description but wanted it to be more of a little bonus fun thing. Glad you are having a good time, my dear! ^_^
Absolutely adored this update! I am so excited for the next chapter!
So glad you enjoyed it, my friend! I am also so pumped to get chapter 5 going! ^_^
"Have you known people outside your church to be wicked?"
"Yeah."
That felt like a really heavy "yeah." If someone hurt Zahn, I'm going to have words with them. And by words, I mean fists.
*clears throat* Yeeeaaahh, about that... 😬
I literally started foaming at the mouth when I saw the update. I love your writing so much!! Was about to go to bed but I decided I no longer need sleep tonight <33
I hope you eventually got some rest (and maybe a napkin for the, uh, foam), lol. I hope you enjoyed, my dear - thank you for checking it out! ^_^
Are there going to be only 3 chapters to this game? If so, are you currently working on more chapters??
Hello friend! There will be more than 3 chapters for sure. Chapter 4 is nearly done as we speak. That's what I've been buried in for the last couple months. The whole story, I anticipate, will be around 12 chapters with my current plan. There is a basic outline for the entire story and I make adjustments and fixes as I write. It may end up being longer, but I can't say yet. It is already huge and just keeps growing! ^_^
just finished a first run of this game—I love it so much!!!! The writing is lovely and Oswin is my beloved. I kept accidentally calling him Oswald in my head, lmao. Just learned about the name reactions—gonna try and find as many of those as i can!! I love a good Easter egg
Thank you, my dear! Glad you're enjoying it! You know, Oswald is not a bad name for him - close enough. ^_^ Good luck with the easter eggs, I don't even remember half of them without looking, lol!
I loved when oswin called me a lazy asshole for naming my mule "horse"
LMAO, I am so glad you discovered that! There's a few names that yield special responses, and I'd like to add more when I have some time. ^_^
i played this for the first time recently, then i replayed it again, and again, and again.. i love this!! its really well written and immersive and its so fun how much character customisation u can do!! and i discovered that if you choose ravi as your new name, oswyn will comment on you choosing the childhood nickname he gave u, i didnt anticipate it being recognised at all so it was such a cool and lovely detail!!! im rlly rlly looking forward to updates on this! now back to replaying it again..
I am so glad you loved it, my dear! Our dear swordsman has a warm spot for that name. I'm glad you found that and are enjoying your replays. Chapter 4 is making great progress, so I hope to update in the near future. ^_^
Gods, of course I will be hooked on the reculant and not-so-secretly caring childhood friend... to be frank, I'm gonna read the heck out this story for him.
I adore mc's dads. And my true bbf. I am also very invested into mc's health. Good job onto spiritual things, I liked the worldbuilding and more to come!
Oswin thinks he's being all sneaky, but he is so bad at it - terrible liar too - it's cute though. I'm thrilled you're enjoying it, my friend! ^_^
I love this so much!
Glad you enjoyed it, my friend! ^_^
wow!!! i haven't read anything THIS good in a while, i can't believe it's only demo so far 😭 i'm genuinely so invested in the plot and the world that's being set up. also not only the ROs but all characters are so endearing and lovable :') our fathers and our best friend have especially warmed my heart
Thank you, my dear! I really appreciate that. I can't wait to share more of it with you! Chapter 4 is making great progress and the remaining moments for 3 are in the oven, lol. ^_^
love this sm !! and omg, is that a zelda reference if you name your mount "epona" haha?? if so, i love the little detail + it makes me wanna input all sorts of stuff to see if there are other little references.
Yay! You noticed! It is a Zelda reference! There's a few little references in there. A couple are a bit obscure. Let me know if you discover any others! ^_^
Hey dear, would you mind making a summary of all the Easter eggs you put into the story at some point? I didn't even know there were Easter eggs before reading the comment section. I follow you on tumblr too. That would be lovely for my sixth re-read of the story. Thank you
Absolutely, my dear! There aren't that many, but it's something I'd like to add more of as things develop. I'll try to pop them on Tumblr when I get some time. Sorry for the late reply. I apparently got logged out of itch on my phone. I was wondering why it had been so quiet lately! >_<
HELP WHEN I SAW THE END THAT SAID "end of demo" AND THEN THE OTHER "chapter 4" I THOUGHT I WAS SAFE AND HAPPILY CLICKED IT ONLY FOR IT TO SAY NOTHINGS THERE😭😭😭WE NEED TO CONFESS TO OSWIN
Same 😭
Hang in there! ^_^
So sorry, my dear, had to leave that little tease in, lol. Don't lose hope, though, chapter 4 is making great progress! ^_^
Same!! I loved Oswin so much!
No words
10000/10
You have no words, and I have too many - let's make a deal, lol. Thank you, my dear, I appreciate your kindness. ^_^
More of oswin>>>
easily one of the best IF omg...
You are much too kind, my friend. I don't know what to say! ^_^
