SAN JUSTO, CA has cultivated a reputation for being a magnet for the anomalous.
Magic, extraterrestrials, failed experiments, and infernal incursions found its way to the the city. Fortunately, the city is not without its defenders: sanctioned golden heroes, and of course, on occasion, a handful of canny brooding vigilantes (funnily enough are character models for those spicy young adult novels).
You built your career in pursuit of reporting on the extraordinary. Meticulous to a fault and relentlessly annoyingly persistent, you made a profession from doubt and the unknown, you deliver stories and facts live on TV; everyone’s watching you… even your neighbor’s cat.
Four years ago, you lost your spouse, leaving the responsibility of raising your teenage child alone. The two of you became a team, learning (although imperfectly) to rotate the way the Earth turns through the darkness and light, building stability despite the loss.
But this is San Justo. and what would you expect in an unordinary city.
Lately, your attention has been consumed by the city’s newest rookie superhero who appeared out of nowhere, known as Pulsar. The public is enamored with this young (really young) hero, but you can’t help but find them somewhat… familiar. Weird.
At the same time, a more immediate concern has begun to take shape in your own home. Your child has changed. Unusually absent-minded and muzzy, gaps in their schedule that don't line up with anything they tell you, and coming home in odd hours— behaviors that are wholly out of their character.
You attempt to rationalize it. After all, Adolescence is inherently unstable with the rising hormones taking place (you should know since you’ve been through that song and dance before).
Yet, you can’t help but feel that something is off.
You have spent your life discerning when stories fail to be consistent. That instinct, honed through years of work is now turning inward, now directed at your own life. You are too close to the subject to remain objective.
Whatever has been lying dormant is beginning to ignite.
FEATURES
✦ play as a telegenic investigative news reporter as you raise a teenager with secrets
✦ customize your news reporter: name, appearance, and gender. & customize your kid: name, and gender.
✦ find love with one of the two strange but single romantic options or stay as a hot loyal widow/er carrying a torch to your really dead 6 ft under spouse (your spouse won’t come back to life,I’m a writer— not a miracle worker ;3).
✦ get an interview with the newest super of the city who seems very familiar.
✦ investigate strange incidents across the city that might put you at risk (but who cares you are a risk taker!)
✦ Judge your kid’s life choices and embarrass them in front of their crush(?) or are they just friends??
✦ go on a blind date and maybe adopt a really weird but cute dog.
✦ Maybe get in a potential brawl with that evil and entitled HOA president!

What would you do, if you knew how it would all end?
BLUE-BLOODED is a romance, low-fantasy, and mystery interactive fiction set in a medieval world of magic, power, and vengeance. Unveil the secrets lurking in the shadows and behind the throne, and shape the fate of both your own life and the world.
SYNOPSIS
Your story begins where you die, and your fate is far more grim than the pretty fables recounted in books of fantasy and enchantment. With your untimely demise comes the world's end, all whilst you lock gazes with the person who caused it.
But before you can proceed, you are thrown back to the beginning— back to day zero, in a tranquil village on the outskirts of a kingdom where magic vibrates in the very air and power is worn as a royal mantle.
The day the herald’s prophecy comes to fruition, a knight arrives to your village, bearing the emblem of the Crown. By will of the Crown, you are forced to join the blue-bloods who are flocked like cattle into a carriage drawn by horses. You and your neighbor are taken from your homes to be trained within the imperial stronghold.
Despite your predicament, there's something itching the back of your mind… Your neighbor’s eyes oddly remind you of something.
AUTHOR'S NOTE

INTRODUCTION | LORE | RO APPEARANCES | VALENS TAG | CALDER TAG | SIBYL TAG | ERIS TAG | ANSWERED ASKS
About a year ago, you were hired as the personal assistant of world-famous actor Reese Morino. Not exactly the easiest job, or the most rewarding, or the best paid… but hey, this was just a way to get a foot in the door for you. You have other ambitions for yourself. Except now that you’re at the beck and call of this trouble magnet, you have no time to actually focus on what you want to do.
Things only get more hectic as you get dragged onto the set of The Renegade, the hit fantasy series that made Reese’s popularity skyrocket. As the shooting of the fourth and last season starts, everyone is under pressure—you included. But maybe you can use what little influence you have to help make the show a success… and, while you’re at it, find your own place in the industry.
Features
→ Play as male or female; straight, gay, or bisexual.
→ Customise your appearance and personality.
→ Pursue your dream career (actor, screenwriter, or talent agent).
→ Decide what kind of personal assistant you will be: the voice of reason, or an enabler.
→ Find allies in the industry, and collaborate with others to bring your own projects to life.
→ Navigate the chaos, drama, and conflicts of interest on the set of The Renegade.
→ Play your small part in determining the fate of the show.
Romance options
Reese Morino:
A popular actor beloved by the public, but with a less than stellar reputation in the industry. He’s known to be temperamental, fussy, unreliable, and charming in a way that borders on manipulative. Reese depends on you to function—and, even then, he barely does.
Fiona Castel:
Reese’s agent, as fierce as she is pragmatic. She prioritises results above all else, and there is no moral line she won’t cross to protect the interests of her clients. She has a solution for every problem… except how to deal with her own stress in a healthy manner.
Graham Park:
The showrunner behind the success of The Renegade. Though he hides it behind a dry sense of humour and a jaded, bitter exterior, Graham is still an idealist at heart, driven by his passion for the art. He’s notoriously hard to approach, and even harder to please.
Nikki Varga:
A production assistant working on The Renegade, Nikki is also an aspiring actress, performing with an amateur theatre troupe while searching for her big break. She’s spontaneous, unfiltered, and optimistic to a fault, which often makes her a hazard to herself.
18+ interactive fiction story dealing with sensitive topics like abuse, self-harm and addiction (plus future optional sexual content). Read at your own discretion.
One of the major themes for this story is identity vs. conformity. As such it is not possible to play as anything other than male or female at the start with he/him and she/her pronouns. There will be opportunities later in the story to identify as trans or non-binary and adjust your body, name and pronouns accordingly. Be warned that such changes and queer relationships will elicit a reaction from characters in the story, but don't let that stop you from being yourself.
Love is the greatest weapon of all, but its absence is not peace.
At the age of twelve, your parents' abuse couldn't be concealed any longer. Now—a year later—you're in a new home, still reeling from the unfairness of it all. A nasty habit that destroys delicate skin helps, but so does playing your well-loved guitar to escape a world that scares you. Exceptional talent, but an inability to fit in, you're left instilled with mistrust beneath a layer of yearning for something you've never had. Taking a desperate approach to change your life, you sign up for Stagebound; Britain's largest singing competition.
Young and scared, you reveal something you can't take back, only to deal with the aftermath your whole career. An outstanding career as a guitarist in a band consisting of people you didn't know before the competition; people your age who will struggle alongside you as you navigate the music industry for many years. The strongest bonds break the loudest... can you really trust the people you didn't get to choose?
Consists of III acts spanning 3 chapters each.
Act I: The Stagebound competition and the aftermath spanning a year later.
Act II: The band breaking into the US market and dealing with all things Hollywood.
Act III: Reunion album and tour years down the line.
Customise your MC! From looks to personality to behaviours, make a character with a predetermined backstory your own.
Struggle with all aspects of fame, or embrace the rockstar lifestyle and shower in the attention.
Keep the peace or stir the drama! With bandmates like these things are sure to stay interesting.
Fight against the constraints of the industry. Queer or otherwise unconventional? Your path to self-expression won't be easy but no less worthwhile.
Your horrific public past haunts you. Will you fall into a rabbit-hole of vices or find healthier ways to cope?
Greylin/Greyson 'Grey' Charter [f/m]
"They told me I couldn't, so I did it twice and took pics."
Outgoing and confident, Grey doesn't allow themself to go unnoticed. They chase good times unapologetically, but remain ambitious in all their pursuits. They're charismatic despite how stubborn they tend to be, and they work hard to conceal their unpleasant tendencies. They idolise performers who dominate the scene—wild, eccentric, impossible to ignore. Getting them on stage is easy. Getting them off, however…
As the lead singer and you as the guitarist, you could be a powerful duo—be it forged in friendship or rivalry. Either way, Grey can take you to the highest peaks, and the lowest valleys. The journey won't be easy, but if you make it you'd have someone that would believe in you till the end of time.
Finley Beckham-Barlowe [f/m]
"Music unlocks the soul; that's why it's called a key."
Closed-off and understated, Finley is used to getting overlooked. They fit the image of the cool bassist on stage, though the same easy-going attitude doesn't quite carry off of it. Quiet by nature, they still voice their opinions without hesitation. They're also not one to conceal their emotions intentionally, and love music that convey feelings in a raw manner. Getting them on stage is of little issue, it's the spectacle beyond performing that leaves them weary.
As the bassist they could be the rhythm to your melody or the chain to your freedom. They can guide as easily as they obstruct, and the dynamic between you would be a constant push and pull. Finding balance won't be easy, but if established, you'd have an anchor for life.
Bem Adeleke [f/m]
"There is strength in crying and in numbers… so crying about maths is the epitome of strength!"
Friendly and eager, Bem sets out to win people over. They're a natural mediator functioning as the backbone of the band, yet unfamiliar with the drums, they constantly scramble to keep up with the rest of you. They live in constant movement, much like the dance music they're drawn to, rarely slowing down to think about themself. Getting them on stage is the hard part; everything after is what they live for.
As your drummer they sit at your centre without meaning to, trying to be a steady baseline without matching the tempo required. When the beat does drop however, you know who'll break their back trying to catch it. But heartbeats are tricky and synchronization can't be forced. If developed naturally, it would mean two lives equally intertwined by the pace you've set.
Irene Svetla
Pop-star phenomenon and Britain's sweetheart, Irene was a contestant on Stagebound a decade before you. Winning the competition meant skyrocketing to fame in an event that still leaves her reeling. She's your self-imposed protector and can be your greatest ally as well as your biggest obstacle.
Zakari 'Zak' Hakim
Underground artist turned mainstream as hip-hop exploded in popularity and carried overseas. He knows the industry well and bears it with a grin. Zak grants you the most freedom but the least guidance, focused solely on increasing your reach even if it means stretching you thin in the process.
Chris Feldman
Veteran from the glory days of the seventies and eighties music scene, Feldman carries the scars of a rockstar with understated pride. When music shifted and his band became obsolete he took a backseat as a producer and manager instead. Feldman knows all about the hidden corners of the industry and the danger of vices. He's there to toughen you up, and give you the reality check you didn't ask for but might have needed.
Stagebound is a WIP slice-of-life/fame IF story with optional romance. Things are liable to change, bugs are likely to occur and typos will slip through. Feedback is always appreciated. Your thoughts matter. It helps me shape this story into the best it can be!
As an author I do not use, nor support the use of generative AI. I do not consent for my work to be used to train these models (though I doubt that matters).
Is there anything more profoundly human than to cry?
Orphaned from a young age, you do what you must to survive. But what happens when something sinister disrupts the mundanity of your everyday life?
You begin as a child born to a native mother and a colonist father. Although you are shaped by both cultures, neither has always been eager to claim you.
Amidst war and an ongoing colonisation, you must find your place within the Kingdom of Yawa or die trying.
Ascendant is a 16+ Epic-Fantasy inspired by the ancient Empire of Majapahit. This interactive fiction also draws inspiration from ancient manuscripts (such as Pararaton and Negarakertagama,) colonisation and local Southeast Asian folklore but is otherwise entirely fictional in nature and therefore, does not contain 100% historical accuracy.
Features:
- play out your backstory
- play as female, male, or nonbinary
- decide the fate of those around you
- face the consequences of your own actions
- play as one of the mythological races based on Southeast Asian folklore
- romance your companions
- or have short (and long) flings
- delve into the magical Kingdom of Yawa and discover its secrets
- uncover your family's secrets
TW: Heavy, mature themes and discussions, such as body horror, war crimes, sexual themes and discussions, cults, religious trauma, colonisation impact, banning of native languages, child abuse and other potentially triggering materials

Note: As the local indonesian law bans NSFW content, I will adhere to it by making future sex scenes non explicit (i.e. not mentioning any body parts and focusing more on the intimacy rather than the sex itself,) as otherwise, I'd have to do 12 years in prison. 😭🫶

The Colors Of August (Greek Island Slice-of-Life IF) (PROLOGUE OUT)
Demo Link (60k+ words)
"If you deconstruct Greece, in the end you will see an olive tree, a grapevine, and a boat remain. Which means, with as much, you reconstruct her."
For as long as you can remember yourself, summertime has beckoned you to your grandmother's home, in the idyllic island of Zakynthos, Greece. You have dipped your toes in the golden brown sand, delved into the crystal blue depths of the Ionian sea, and made memories to last you a lifetime beneath the scorching Mediterranean sun, your flock of close-knit family and friends always by your side in your carefree summer escapades. Your quaint seaside village has been a haven, a specter of a time bygone, a dreamland oasis.
However, this year, something dark and sorrowful stirs beneath the tides, a shared loss reflected in everyone's eyes. A real estate mogul is aiming to purchase the seaside lot and re-purpose it into a luxury hotel. If they are successful in their endeavors, the familiar taverns, homes and shops, including your grandmother's own coffeehouse, will be bulldozed over to make room for tall spires of concrete and marble.
The sunlit reverie of your youth is coming to an end. You may never get to spend another summer season like this in Zakynthos. There is thus only one thing left to do: Make the most of the time you have left.
Features
Customize your character's personality, appearance, gender, sex, preferences and goals. Do you cling to the happy memories of your childhood or does the thought of modernization excite you? Does Greece call you to as your homeland or do you discard your roots? Shape your future and discover how your past slots into it, if it does at all.
Embrace Greek island life! Enjoy the Mediterranean cuisine, engage in local traditions, and interact with the island's lively and colorful cast of residents.
Participate in all sorts of wacky summer shenanigans. Explore an underwater cave! Go on a submarine ride! Witness the hatching of baby turtles! Try skinny dipping! Get so blackout drunk that you and your friends wake up on the other side of the island and are forced to retrace your steps, basically re-enacting the Hangover Ala Greek!
Unravel your complicated family history, and how it entwines with the village's own muddled past. Face generational trauma and decide how to move on from it, possibly reforge your family bonds, and uncover secrets hidden in the attic for far too long.
Engage in steamy summer romance! Fall in love with your wise-cracking (yet oddly secretive) childhood friend, or pursue the unattainable, stoic and withdrawn man/woman of your dreams, who to your misfortune also just happens to be your brother's best friend. Experience a whirlwind romance with the cute and shy tourist staying over in your grandma's B&B (one bed trope here we gooo), or explore your undeniably fiery chemistry with the business mogul who is actively trying to drive your family shop out of business! Or do all of the above! What happens in Zakynthos, stays in Zakynthos... or does it?
Decide the future of your village. Save it from the evil clutches of capitalism or help it transition into a bright new future! Enjoy your last summer in Zakynthos or carve out a life for yourself in the island, permanently.
Romantic Options
The Local (Lukas/Lukia)
The boy/girl next door, L has been your steadfast companion every June through August. The only other kid in the village exactly your age, unlike you, L is a permament resident of Zakynthos and holds no desire to change that fact. Characterized by a sunny disposition, a zest for life and a complete lack of shame, you don't believe you have ever seen L without a grin on their lips.
Yet despite it all, as your time together is drawing thin, you can feel something cracking in their gleeful exterior. Is is at all possible that your old friend is hiding something more troubled from you?
Close as you are, with how deeply they are entwinned with island culture, it is very likely that after this summer you will never see them again. The possibility makes longing swell in your chest, or could it be something else which is making your heart gallop?
L has golden curls that refuse to be tamed so they don't even try, sunkissed tanned skin and sea blue eyes. Their build is fit and toned. Dimples grace their cheeks when they beam, which is often. They look like the spirit of summer personified.
Potential Tropes: childhood friends, friends to lovers, girl/boy next door.
Potential Variations: You can choose to have had a crush on L since childhood. If you do, it will be reciprocal. You can also choose how close you are exactly: whether you are summer buds or best friends all year long.
Brother's Best Friend (Atlas/Athena)
Your brother's best friend and the most mature of the gaggle. If you did not know how much they cared from years of them gliding over you like a mother hen, you would honestly assume they hate you, because their default expression ranges from "irked by your presence" to "murderous intent".
Currently top of their class in an Ivy League College, A is what you may call a perfectionist, and they hold themselves in very high standards. Many want and have tried to get close to A, but very few get past their guard, and you are not even sure if your brother is one of them.
Though distant, stoic and often biting in their remarks, A acts as the group dad/mom, ensuring that you have drunk enough water, put on a sufficient amount of sunscreen or remembered to take your jacket with you.
A is also very honest and straightforward about their perception of you; you are just a kid they are obligated to watch out for through the bonds of friendhood. They are fiercely (sometimes annoyingly) protective of you and will support you through thick and thin, while buying you a stuffed toy like you are still five years old.
But what if you want them to see you as more than just a kid? Is this your last chance to make an impression on them?
A has silken straight black hair, dark grey eyes and a fair complexion. Their physique borders on that of a Greek statue. A has an aquiline nose.
Potential Tropes: brother's best friend, "I am not just a kid anymore", in love and in denial.
Potential Variations: You can choose to have had a crush on A since childhood. You can also choose if they are aware of it or not. At the beginning of the game, A is not actively reciprocating your interest.
The Tourist (William/Willow)
W had no intention of imposing on your grandmother's hospitality so long, but a sudden break up has them deciding to prolong their stay in Zakynthos. Not that they infringe all that much, seeing as they are quiet as a mouse and twice as skittish.
Shy, sweet and with a deep love for Greek history and mythology, W is hoping to take advantage of their vacation time to come out of their shell.
W is in many ways a mystery, intentionally so, you get the impression. Driven by a thirst for knowledge and a need for change, they are the newest addition to your little group.
Will do you able to coax this intriguing stranger out of their shell? And perhaps most importantly, why do you want to so badly?
W has dark skin, long locs and soft features. Clusters of freckles dot their cheeks and nose. Their build is petite and curvy. W speaks with a British accent.
Potential Tropes: summer love, one bed trope, forced proximity.
The Business Mogul (Stefan/Stefania)
S is a suave and confident playboy/girl, who seems to take a lot of pleasure in teasing you. Shameless in their hedonism and even more unashamed in their business acumen, S has come to Zakynthos to survey what they are determined to make their property. Having a wild summer while doing so, is really just a coincidental plus.
Self-centered but undeniably charismatic, S grew up in the lap of luxury and is used to getting their way with things. Despite it all, there is a constant lack of satisfaction about them, like they have everything and nothing all at once. One must wonder if the constant philandering, partying, drinking and expanding is nought but a shield against having to sit in silence with themselves.
S has their eye on you as their favourite person in the island already. Is that good or bad? You are tempted to find out, to dive deep into their dazzling and hazy world of glamor and grime, but you are not quite certain a single person in your life would approve of such an interest.
S has tanned skin, which deepens and darkens especially in summertime, wavy dark brown hair that frames their face irritatingly angelically given what a fiend they are, and olive green eyes. They are tall and lithe in build.
Potential Tropes: enemies to lovers, romeo & juliet, reforming the bad boy/girl.
Important Note
The Colors of August is centered around the beautiful, messy and sometimes difficult lives of a group of new adults making the most of their last summer together in a quaint village on the island of Zakynthos. The game heavily incorporates elements of modern Greek island culture, and is based on the author's own experiences of such!
Core themes include: summertime (of course), romance, self-identity, self-discovery, nostalgia, coming of age, breaking cycles of trauma, healing, the power of community, the old vs the new, the division between the generations, environmentalism, the past and how it haunts, and more.
While ultimately a feel-good type of game, mainly focused on character and relationship drama, I do not plan to shy away from incorporating more serious themes into the game. The intent behind this decision is primarily to show how people grow past or are affected and shaped by them.
For more details, on the precise themes referenced here, you can look at safety warnings below!
Safety Warning
The Colors of August is rated 18+ for:
Optional Sexual Content (can be detailed, fade to black or entirely absent from the story)
Generational Trauma
Mental Health Problems (Discussion & Depiction)
Parental Negligence
Referenced Past Child Abuse
Consumption of Alcohol
Economical Disparities
And potentially more. List may expand as I go.
Trigger warnings will be issued before every chapter/every sensitive scene, so players can opt out of and skim over any darker content, if they so desire.
Thank you for coming to my TedTalk and I hope you enjoy The Colors of August!
FLESH REVIVAL is a narrative-driven paranormal and found footage horror game featuring themes of witchcraft and mythology, psychological distress, and mature, disturbing subject matter intended for 18+ audiences.
a self-built website with a youtube channel, created by you and your two best friends, EDEN and WINONA, where people online can submit requests involving paranormal activity in hopes of it being handled by you three investigators.
provided with footage, most clients don’t ask too many personal questions. which is a good thing… for now.
anyway, want to communicate with ghosts? sure. need them banished from your home or business? a little difficult but not impossible.
when a new request comes in all the way from north dakota, there’s no way you’d turn it down. because this isn’t a case of one ghost. or even a family of them. it’s an entire location filled with unidentified entities.
camp hillbird in halvrest.
submitted by spitkisser00 (who is this person?), the request goes into detail about the town but focuses on camp hillbird, known as a hotel and camping resort. tourists and locals alike have reported seeing "specters" wandering the land.
the county police don’t bother with anything supernatural (they do not believe. not surprising.) so spitkisser00 turns to flesh revival instead.
they made the right call. after all, the resort and town would be in the hands of a ghost-hunting tech expert, an occult specialist, and you. the clairvoyant who can see the otherworldly with a membrane filter under your eyelids.
inspiration derives from franchises such as tales from the gas station, supernatural, silent hill, the ritual, the blair witch project, phasmophobia, and ghost files.
WHO ARE YOU ? fully customize yourself. choose your gender, pronouns, appearance, clothing style, personality, the skills you specialize in, and level up your clairvoyant ability.
GEAR UP FOR THE UNKNOWN. test out advanced ghost-hunting equipment, including new ones aided by the ahlstrand family.
DOCUMENTATION. own a detailed journal of everything you encounter. record evidence and their patterns, determine what kind of entities you’re dealing with. you will also get to read your self-entries.
TRUST NO ONE (OR DO ?) interview the residents of camp hillbird and the beyond with a voice recorder. there are open books, others are not as their secrets run deeper into the truth.
LEARN THE OLD WAYS. study protection and warding practices under crane, and collect items, incantations from “eccentric” individuals. you will have an inventory log of what you keep.
INVESTIGATE HOTSPOTS. search every corner thoroughly for hidden clues, strange markings and objects. the more you find, the better.
TEAM UP OR GET CLOSE. partner with others to unlock new paths. along the way, relationships can grow from platonic to something more if you can manage them.
ROMANCE OPTIONS. RESIDENTS OF CAMP HILLBIRD
AKSEL / ALEKSA HAUSTEIN [M or F] The Reckless Lagomorph. the one who sent your team to camp hillbird in the first place. yes, they are spitkisser00. A works as a tattoo artist and is an avid fan of your paranormal youtube channel, fascinated by every strange thing flesh revival manages to uncover. with a reckless appetite for adventure and a talent for making bad ideas look fun, they insist on joining the investigation as your self-appointed guide.
PERCY / PIERCE DILLANE [F or M] The Bleeding Hound. a traveler returning to halvrest to help at their uncle’s auto shop, while also taking on fishing work around camp hillbird to keep their family afloat. unfortunately, they also happen to be someone from your past. as one of the people tied to the ugly history you and your friends would rather forget. further telling that the sharp-tongued P wants nothing to do with your investigation or with you. though somehow, bad luck keeps forcing the two of you into each other’s orbit.
TAKANE / TAKERU MEGURO [F or M] The Hillbird. the owner of camp hillbird and the architect responsible for much of its design, making them the person standing closest to every secret buried beneath it. however, for someone so elegant and frustratingly unreadable, T is being haunted. if anyone holds the truth about camp hillbird, it's them. you just have to be persistent enough to get close.
MAVERICK WARDWELL [NB] The Crooked Stag. a well-known regular at camp hillbird with a jack of all trades reputation. hunter, horse rider, professional bargainer, you name it. charming to a dangerous degree, maverick trades secrets for favors. whether they are helping you or simply entertained by you remains unclear.
SALEM ABERNATHY [trans M] The Sentient Vulture. a ranger assigned to oversee camp hillbird, meaning he also has to deal with you and your friends. salem spends most of his time patrolling the grounds and making sure no one gets themselves in trouble chasing ghosts in places they absolutely should not be (aka you guys). he's armed with too little sleep and the patience of a man being tested by the universe.
