Sounds cool!
I'm up for an extended deadline, if other contests can still take place in the interim. At least that way it won't "hold up" anything.

I have several game ideas so far, and I've started rudimentary work, along with pages of notes, hopefully it will translate well into a few tidbits at some point.

It's September. How are we doing?

Not sure if any of you have noticed, but mouse-clicks are becoming more user-friendly in the OHR if you know how to access mouse functionality. FYI.

My twine game is playable from start to finish, but it still needs more bug squashing as well as extra flavor text here and there.
Working as intended!

My game is not finished yet, nor playable. Hopefully soon though.

Had a bit of a computer problem last week, so I lost some progress on my entry. I know I'll be cutting it late, but I'm aiming for either October or November.

Hey guys, just bumping this thread to remind you that it's still a thing. Is anyone close to release?

Unfortunately I am not near finishing.

I would love some more time really, but I'm not bothered because I'm unsure if I could finish even if I had another month.
Perhaps a watered down version.

Maybe I should have gone with a simpler concept for my game :p

Had to cut back on by idea a bit, but my game should be out by the 30th by the latest.

Did I say the 30th? I meant by the 30th on Mercury. :angel:
It's less epic than I promised, but I lost more progress on The Squire's Tale than I originally realized. Part of it is still set in the same universe at least.

Thanks for participating in the Flavor Text Contest.

The screenshots remind me of Shadowgate and Deja Vu, which is really cool. I miss playing those games on the NES.

Any chance we'll get the remaining participating entries by the end of the year? The engine now supports copy/pasting from outside sources, so that should speed things up for people. Theoretically.

Here's the Twine Game I said I would make way back when. It's a bit rough around the edges and could use a bit more flavor text and direction of where to go, but it's playable from start to finish. This version is edited a bit to be "safe for slimesalad" and omits some of the scandalous, lewd jokes so nobody on here drops their monocle into their cup of earl grey. I'll post the Bad Fur Day edition somewhere else later.

For those who are unfamiliar with Twine games, they're html files (basically games in website form, I guess), so just extract it from the archive and and open it in a browser and enjoy. https://www.dropbox.com/s/5h7mqbd3r63pi ... f.zip?dl=0
