Hey everyone! Sorry for the long silence. Larkylabs has been having the busiest time of it’s life. (which is almost 1 year old! It’s a babyyyy!) Here is a short update of what’s been going on, and all the releases so far! So, the major reason why we have been quiet was because I was really busy trying to set up a new system for LarkyLabs. It’s because I alone cannot handle too many projects on my own, we have finally set up two teams working on two separate games for Larky, while I work on the games that I am personally writing. We now have two brands and logos for this purpose,

Our two teams working on Regal Inquest and Ascension: Remake (Yeah, you heard it right!) are working inside the brand RinmaruGames. 

While I will be releasing games that I am personally writing with the brand name ImpQueen. With this, we will be able to update LarkyLabs with new content more often, and have a variety of different styles of games! Our first RinmaruGames game Regal Inquest is finally out on Patreon, and will be releasing the public version next month! It’s funny, it’s romantic, and it’s full of mischief and mystery. If you enjoy a witty and fantastic story with a cast of characters all equally intriguing, please check it out and let us know what you think!

Our second RinmaruGames game Ascension:Remake has just begun it’s production and they ready to blow your minds! As promised, Ascension:Remake will have a M!MC and a F!MC, with a skin color choice option. The choice you make at the start of the game, will either let you play as Kael or Aida. And the second twin will be, the one ruling Valond. 

They are hoping to release the first chapter early 2022, and I will keep you updated on the progress of the game!

As for ImpQueen games, I am finally able to focus on my work and ready to continue Oathbreaker Season 2. I released chapter 7 last night on Patreon, and will quickly start working on the rest of the last 2 chapters left.

I will have to hold on the public releases because of my schedule, but once Season 2 is completed, I will be releasing the Public version on Itch.io for free. So, you will be able to play the whole game without waiting for chapters. That being said, I have also started on the production of several merch for LarkyLabs. Keychains, pins, stickers, totebags and body pillows are getting ready as I... type... this update.(?)

(Also tarot cards drawn by the lovely @elequinoa-world​!)

This has been a rocky start for my company, but things are finally getting together. I really can’t wait for everything that’s cooking right now. Love you and see you soon!

Regal Inquest Otome Game: Looking for Writer(s)! (Paid job)✍️

Edit: Found our writers! Thank you so much! 🙏 💖

As we are getting REALLY close to our next goal 🥳, it's finally time to find a writer (maybe multiple writers in time) who will make Regal Inquest come true!

What is Regal Inquest about? 🦆

Regal Inquest is a romance/comedy otome game / visual novel about a protagonist who is being prosecuted by the Court for practicing witchcraft because of her keen perception and intelligence.

Hours before her trial, however, the Court offers our protagonist a deal:

"Find out who turned the King into a goose, and you will be set free."

So, the protagonist starts using her "psychic (Not really. She is just very clever.)" powers to try and find out the mage who cursed the King and turned him into a goose.

In the game, you will solve mysteries, rank up in court, make friends (or enemies), and make sure nobody will figure out you are a fraud and that you don't posess any magical talents before time runs out.

It will be a romance route specific game rather than plot. Every route will have 1 normal and 1 happy end.

Bad endings will be common route endings and they may happen any time during the course of the game. (Pissing off the wrong people, getting caught lying about your magical powers etc.)

There are 3 female and 3 male love interests. 💖

The Court Jester Arda, Court Wizard Baiyan, Queen Eleanor, Lord Gerald, Captain Emmeline, and Sybil the Witch.

Will this game have NSFW scenes?

Although not as much as Oathbreaker, it will have NSFW scenes for Coolpacas drawn by the talented PrinceOfRedroses with narration + dialogue!

The SFW version of the game will be PG-13.

Will this game be free to play?

Yes and no. The public version of the game will be for free and it won't have any NSFW scenes.

Public version will also follow the Patreon exclusive NSFW version and the SFW Early Access version with a 1 month delay. (Just like Oathbreaker.)

What are we looking for?

As this is a paid work, we are looking for writers who can give this game time. If you have a full time job / school or very very busy with other work, this may not be for you.

We are looking for writers who are over the age of 18, due to optional NSFW scenes.

This is an episodic game, so we need an episode each month (Delays, holidays, and breaks are of course excluded. We would just need a short notice before hand.)

Having finished at least one game or worked in the production of a finished game is a huge bonus. But we are always excited to work with newcomers who has never tried working on a game before. (Though it's a little bit risky if they don't actually like the work in the end and quit half way through. Experience means there are less surprises during the production.)

Being able to edit/proofread your own work is also a big bonus. 😅

How can you apply as a writer?

Please send us your portfolio and your rates to [email protected]. (example of your written works, games, short stories etc. the more the better!)
