... all the while reminding your protective older brother that you're more than capable of holding a gun!

Do you think you'd develop a small team to like help out with more customization options or having the 6 ROs?
Unfortunately, leadership isn't really my strongest suit
Managing a team isn't as easy as it sounds, unfortunately. I'm currently juggling two jobs at the moment, so I don't trust myself enough to commit in having a handful of talented people waiting for me in this project.
Maybe one day when everything's running smoothly in my private life. Now is just not yet the right time.
Also, I've included the plan of expanding the customization options as part of my agenda, but it won't be at the top of the list. For the other ROs? Ehhhhhh ~
It took me a couple of times reading the script to realize that this VN version had lost its umph! moment that it had when it was still a purely text-based game.Ā
Somehow, the Kell in this VN felt a bit different from the CYOA, like he was missing a part of his key feature since the beginning of chapter 1. Yet I've transposed them word per word, choice on every choice, until I went to its ending and figured out what Kell was missing.
Kell lacked the possessiveness for the player character.
So I brought it back in this new update.
I try to deviate from the CS version. There were a lot of loopholes waiting to happen with those scenes, and Iām correcting them with this new version.Ā
What I try not to change is how the ROs interact with the MC, the key being their overprotectiveness, jealousy, and how differently they viewed the world.
Chapter 2 will feature this perfectly, with the MCās mom being in the mix of the story. Rex will be drawn in and be given the spotlight as a potential RO, and as I recall in the feedback during its CS days, Rex won many hearts over the readers in that chapter.
Weāll see how it goes, hopefully I can pump out the art and the words fast enough to not keep you all waiting.

Will the top/verse/bottom restrictions remain as in CS version?
Since the romance routes solely focus on Kell and Rex (and possibly Tommy), it is possible for me to write different preferences for them in the story. I don't want to make any promises as of now, but I'll keep you updated in my devlogs :)
Hii, I was wondering if we could make the MC with body hair but without a beard, I understand if not because of the reasons that you have stated previously.
Hmm... I think I can make that work š¤ MC's beard and body hair never change, so those are easier to do. I'll put it up in my to-do list! Hopefully be implemented in v.0.02
Hi! Just finished played your VN and I loved it! I was wondering, will there be an option to customize the hair/eye colors for the MC in future updates?
Thanks for giving it a try! ā„ļø
Though I'd love to have a fully customisable MCā from eye color, hair length, skin complexion, etc.ā it's going to be a challenge in both coding and artwork, especially with different facial expressions needed. If I'm not mistaken, Ren'Py doesn't support any color-changing functions on its images because it will eat up a lot of RAM, which will not be ideal.
Those features are better applied to visual novels with static avatars, somewhat like "Dream Daddy" VN.

Mom: Honey, are you okay? You havenāt touched your food yet.
Me, after 12 hours of writing, coding, and pixel art:
When I started porting ISAIS from choicescript to renāpy, I didnāt know how taxing it was until I got to the point of learning how to actually coding it.Ā
Not to say that learning renāpy is gruesome or anythingā this is just me being lazy af in studying the renāpy cookbook and instead relying on Youtube tutorials. Even then, my attention span doesnāt exceed that of a goldfish, so I end up just staring at my screen for a solid 15 mins because I forgot to place a semi-colon in a line.
But every successful project begins with baby steps, so no matter how small your progress is for the day, itās important that you simply be consistent about it. No matter how daunting it is, itās better to start now than never at all.
To those who are too afraid of learning how to code, who are anxious in sharing their art, who doubt themselves in their writing, or those who are too afraid to share their stories to the world...
Post it! Share it! Believe in yourself because what do we have to lose if we havenāt started anything to begin with?
So get out there, champ, and do your thing!Ā ā¤ļø
P.S.Ā VN update coming very soon! Honestly, the VN version doesnāt have that sameĀ ~umph it had compared to the CS version, so Iām transporting scene per scene to the VN.
Honestly, my ROs are restricted due to my incapability of drawing them :( I really wanted to stick with the original 6 ROs but instead I'm resorting to something much more humanoid in terms of their features.
As of now, Kell and Rex are 100% guaranteed to be ROs (with a possible polyromance between them).
Tommy Porter is also in the drawing board, but if you've read the CS version, you'll understand that he isn't exactly going to be exclusive to MC. If possible, Tommy will only be a polyromantic option.
I'm practicing more in my art so I can clear myself out of these restrictions. I wanted to add something more anthro-looking, or something more alien to have more variety in ISAIS.
absolutely loved the new release! your art is super cute, can't wait for more :)
I'm very glad you like it! ā„ļø I was inspired in doing pixel art after playing a thousand hours of Stardew Valley. I can't say it's anywhere near its art style, but I'm enjoying how it looks right now.
Ok maybe a dumb question, but what do the red arrows do in the create a character part of the demo?
Those are reserved for more avatar types. You'll be able to choose your MC's body type in the future. Right now, MC looks kinda like a twink by default.

Hear that? Thatās me turning off the radio silence.
First off, I want to say hello to you all and I hope you are living your best life!Ā
Itās been awhile since I posted anything, and I blame that in my incapability of focusing on one project at a time.Ā
Recently been juggling between work and personal priorities that I ended up putting In Stasis And In Space in the backburner.
Which leads me to my second point of this post: I wanna say Iām so fcking sorry for not reaching back to your lovely messages in my inboxĀ š I hear you, and Iām doing okay, and ISAIS continues on as a visual novel from here on out.
Hereās a direct link on the itch.io page!
Iām taking a risk of doing my own art despite me not having a single artistic bone in my body, Thereās still a lot more room for improvement, and weāll get there one day. Just gotta keep practicing and drink more coffee and drain more energy drinks and ql;jkdjfaopidfl;k
Look, I made a naked alien man...
Some of you were asking why I emptied my Tumblr page. A couple of reasons had led me in that decision.Ā
Mainly, porting the title as a text-adventure game into a visual novel granted me opportunities I couldnāt do as a purely narrative CYOA game. That results to a drastic change in the plot, which is why I hid the contents of this blog so no one will get confused about it.
Some (but not all) changes I made so far:
Chapter reconstruction. The visual novel version ends differently from the choicescript version.
Characters. It breaks my heart to announce that Iām cutting down some ROs we originally talked about during its choicescript days due to my inability to fcking draw them. Apparently, I suck at drawing long, majestic beards that I canāt do justice to them at all.
Species. I donāt know why, but Iām having a hard time drawing tentacles, so I had to change the octopus-headed humanoid race into something more human-like. If I can get it right, maybe one day I can bring them back.
Species name. I came to realize thatĀ ātresteriansā andĀ āterrestrialsā are tongue twisters. Iāve changed it toĀ ātusseriansā.
Spoilers. After rereading the past questions in this blog, plenty of them inspired me to put it in the VN version. Iām sending out a big thank you to those who sent me those asks, and I hope you get to see it in the later chaptersĀ ā¤ļø
Additionally, I wanted to put this VN with a clean start. I might have driven some expectations to things that werenāt a hundred percent guaranteed to be seen in the plot, and so to avoid confusion Iāve set them all to private.
Someone also asked what would happen to the choicescript version of the game. Sadly, the CS version will be discontinued. I do not plan to continue ISAIS anymore as a CS, but maybe in the future Iāll be writing other CYOA games under the Hosted Game label if given the opportunity. Just gotta do one project at a time~!
To wrap things up, I want to repeatedly say thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for telling me that youāve been replaying my game during the months I was gone. Whoever you guys are, please continue showing your support to your favorite authors, artists, and developers š„° Itās truly a wonderful feeling to be on the receiving end, and most people who would think theyāve hit rock bottom can slowly rise back to the surface with your simple act of kindness. It does wonders, believe me!
And so, am I really back on Tumblr? Meh. Iāll be on and off like flicking a switch, much like how Rex Reynolds would flick MCās nipple with his tongue while heās asleep and asdfl;kjqwepoingds
Take care, you beautiful person, you. Stay happy~!
