This isn't really in any kind of playable state yet; i just wanted to show that i’d gotten the basic “engine” (read: javascript spaghetti) to work

I have decided not to badger my artist friend until my character is more fleshed-out, and as such, will instead be doing my fursona page in the style of a choose-your-own-adventure(™) interactive-fiction thing. Have I ever programmed anything of the sort before in my life? No. Am I too stubborn to learn how to use a third-party thing like Twine? Yes. Will this stop me? No. >:)

Protip: You can take three routes with this. Twine works best for you probably because it has built in HTML support. Inklewriter would probably be a good place to get it organized & compiled in a draft, though it has excruciatingly limited options for decor. RenPy gives you the most freedoms but also requires you get familiar with some Python and throws you in the crowd of 'dating sim writers'.

If you do take the RenPy route, though, there is a channel with easy to digest tutorials I found a bit ago that might be of help. I know all this because I myself have been trying to write a work of 'interactive fiction' (with very little success, as I tend to stay in development hell).

Turns out I actually got one more entry in my inbox than I thought I did — my apologies to our forthcoming concerned conservationist for missing them out in the first count!

This has the side effect of bumping our final submission up to the winter solstice, which is nice

IO SATURNALIA! I only received four submission, but I'm quite happy with that — that's four more than I was expecting! They’ll be drip-fed through over the next couple of days

Oh also I added some American sports team loyalties to my about page or whatever
When i made this website i swore to myself that i would never use the stereotypical starry Geocities background. I would like to apologise to my past self, and hope that she might find this somewhat tasteful
welcome to the dark side
never apologize for the starry background. Some of us might never have moved beyond it :D
