Hello everyone! Welcome back to early access/the BIP. As of right now, the total word count for Chapter Six is sitting at 46,000 words, up 33,000 from last month! This update includes the rest of the Hermes & Alekto branch, and about half of t...
2022-03-31 16:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostHi all!
Next month's variable bonus content continues the alternate-POV trend, which is mostly ROs but may occasionally include others. In this case, the poll is all the ROs who haven't yet had a turn, plus Makaria! Just let me know whose pe...
2022-03-31 15:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone!
Here we are, at the last week of the month. It sorta feels like March was at least three months, but sadly I don't have three months of progress to show for it. Still, I got about 8k written this week, and I think I'll be abl...
2022-03-28 16:01:10 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone! This month's Mirror is a detailed preview with some commentary, as I've done a few times in the past.
Chapter Six hits upon a lore point I've had in mind for a while, but never really had the chance to explain. It is, however, s...
2022-03-23 16:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone!
Once again, I'm happy to report that I've made solid progress, to the tune of 7,000 new words. The branch I'm working on, where the player travels to the mortal realm with Alekto and Hermes, is almost done. I'm confiden...
2022-03-21 16:01:04 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone!
The RO POV Bonus Content series continues! I specified that this month would be Charon, and the outing to the lake narrowly won for the scene in question. So here's the beat-for-beat mirror of part of that scene, starti...
2022-03-16 16:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
Another week, another 7k words on the chapter. There's quite a few variations with this one, for minor stuff like whether the PC knows a certain spell, and what outing they went on last time, so at times it feels like I'm spinn...
2022-03-14 16:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone!
The next few months are Hades's turn to make his way through the Proust questionnaire. As always, I have fun alluding to plot points and backstory stuff with these, and I hope you like reading them!
2022-03-09 17:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone!
Jess here, checking in as usual with the weekly progress report. I've written another solid 7,000 words this week, and have begun the scene where the PC goes with Alekto and Hermes to see if they can figure out who was in the...
2022-03-07 17:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
This week somehow snuck up on me much more quickly than I was expecting. Fortunately, I found the time to get another couple dossiers out, this time for Artemis and Aphrodite. They're sort of a contrasting pair in a lot of ways...
2022-03-02 17:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHello all!
Welcome (or welcome back) to the Build-in-Progress. As the Weekly Update mentioned, I've got right around 13,000 words of new stuff for you, though of course the chapter is far from done yet! Still, clicking through it should give...
2022-02-28 17:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostHey all! Next month's variable bonus content will be a continuation of the RO POV series that kicked off this month with Hades meeting PC.
The next piece is going to feature Charon, so your choice is what scene you want their perspective on....
2022-02-28 16:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone!
Here we are on the last day of the month. Once again, you'll be getting the BIP and a poll on the same day as this update, and a bonus content in two days. I hope it's all enjoyable.
Anyhow, the current version of...
2022-02-28 15:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHello again everyone!
And welcome, to those of you new and returning. I'm frankly a little floored by the reception the last chapter has received; I think it's all still sort of sinking in. That said, I am happily picking away at the next on...
2022-02-21 17:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHey all!
As polled, I'm doing a bit of a bonus content series with POVs from the nonplayer characters of certain scenes. You all voted on a type of PC for this one, so I tried to select their choices accordingly!
This is the 'pro...
2022-02-16 17:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
The official announcement will go out on tumblr soon, but I just wanted to let you all know that the entirety of chapter five is now ready to play. You can find it at the regular build on 2022-02-15 10:18:42 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey everyone!
I wrote my proverbial butt off this week, managing uh... I think around 13k words? Point is, Pyri's outing is nearly done, and with it the chapter. Look out for a public release of the whole thing around tomorrow or the next da...

Hey all!
The fantastic fastforwardmotion on tumblr drew Hades and Makaria for me! They do indeed have matching braids, and Makaria definitely did her dad's. ...
2022-02-12 15:22:36 +0000 UTC View PostHello again everyone!
We're back with the last installment of Alekto's Proust Questionnaire, in which she discloses a few more hints about a significant backstory point. Next month, Hades is up!
I hope you're all having a great w...
2022-02-09 17:00:52 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone!
It's been a steady first week of February for yours truly. As some of you in the Discord server are aware, I've finally been able to commission an art piece again, and that's going well, so those of you in bud tier and up sho...
2022-02-07 17:01:04 +0000 UTC View PostHey all!
This week's bonus content comes in the form of two short dossier entries, one for Hera and one for Athena. I thought it would be neat to share with you a bit more info about some of the people the PC can have backstory connections t...
2022-02-02 17:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostHello, early access friends!
Here we have this month's BIP, with the back half of Alekto's outing and the entirety of Hades's, for a grand total of 32k new words. I hope you enjoy it; hopefully soon I'll have a way to do early access that do...
2022-01-31 17:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostHello again everyone! It's me, spamming my own feed, and possibly your email. Apologies if that's the case!
Anyhow, this month's bonus content is probably going to be some form of 'RO POV' exercise, and I'd like you to choose the type of PC ...
2022-01-31 16:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHi all!
Several things have fallen together on the last day of the month this time around. First is this weekly update, and then in about an hour, you'll see the bonus content poll, and then finally at noon US Eastern Standard Time, you'll s...
2022-01-31 15:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHey y'all.
I was thinking of using the Mirror this month to experiment with RO POV, but it's only sort of that. This is something of a conditional missing scene from the game, one that triggers only if the PC has shown particular reluc...
2022-01-26 17:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostHey all!
Another week, another solid 7k. The good news is, I can see the shape of the end of the Hades scene now, and I think I'll have it done by the end of January, leaving me with only the Pyri one to go before the chapter is ready for re...
2022-01-24 17:00:08 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
I'm back again, this time with a promised bit of interaction between Hekate and Hermes. I had a lot of fun writing this one; in general doing pairs of characters interacting with each other to get a better sense for the individ...
2022-01-19 17:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHello again everyone!
New week, new 7k words in FoA. I'm pretty happy with the fact that I managed to keep up such consistent progress this week, because it's been one of those that just feels like it drags forever and everything is a challe...
2022-01-17 17:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
We're back this week with the second of three parts of Alekto's Proust Questionnaire! She's got one more part to go next month, and then we'll be hearing from Hades.
It was a pretty interesting set of questions for ...
