Ecstasy of the Saints: Pilgrimage is a short interactive fiction story in which you play as a nameless traveler searching for your Beloved. Unfortunately, the trail's gone cold and you're out of supplies. Thank goodness there's a store nearby! Hopefully nothing happens while you're restocking...
Who are you? Who are you searching for, and why? Most importantly, w̶̢͒ẖ̵́e̸͍͌r̶̻͐ḙ̴̀ ̶̻͝i̶̘͌s̴̨͋ ̵̚ͅy̶̱̋o̸͓͛u̶͑ͅr̵̨͛ ̸̺͝B̷̯͝e̷͔͛l̶̹̓o̸͉̊v̷͇̓è̷̟d̴̫̀?̸̭̑
Hi, this is my first game! It was created in Twine for the Love is Unconventional game jam (thank u Connie for telling me about it and encouraging me!). It's around 7K words long and the story acts as a prequel to a yandere game I hope to create in the future. If you're interested in gothic vibes and dark romance, especially ones where you get to be the monster too, please give it a try!
Mild spoilers below for the yandere in question and also a picture my friend drew for me based on the main game description!
Then there was the tenant. It was a man. Ridiculously tall, broad-shouldered, and wrapped in a dark coat that barely stirred in the wintry wind. Ink black curls fell past his shoulders, the front strands tied into a loose knot at the back of his head, revealing half-lidded, pitch-black eyes beset by equally dark circles.
The bottom of his face was obscured by a black surgical mask, which he pulled down to reveal a scarred nose overlooking a rough, stubbled jaw. The injury was old, and darker than the cool sepia of the surrounding skin. It split his face almost in two, starting from the bridge of his broad nose and just narrowly missing the lingual and carotid arteries on the other side of his head. That he wasn't blind or dead was what mortals might call a miracle.

This been sitting in my WIPs for so long, but I think I'm finally calling it done. It's def because I've decided this and not because somehow I failed to save the photoshop doc properly and would have to redo some of the animation if I wanted to work on it further e v o
I'm tagging literally every fandom that I've ever been a part of in an attempt to garner more outreach for this.
If you haven't heard, a romance/otome game called Love and Deepspace is facing a lot of backlash right now. The company, Infold, was advertising a new love interest named Valko, but ended up completely cancelling his release barely a week after his reveal due to a very loud minority in China who was protesting his existence.
So now, the global players have banded together in an attempt to get Valko returned to the game. If anyone would like to contribute to this fight and show support, even in a small way, please consider signing this petition! It's at almost 201k signatures in less than three days!
Any LADS fans that see this, please reblog with your fandoms in the tags because I know there's plenty I missed! Let's spread the word!!!
Thanks! :3
Fans urge Infold and PaperGames to restore Valko as a love interest in Love and Deepspace to honor the original vision for the game. Add you

Before I explain, there are a few issues to keep in mind:
The first Fogfall happened a century ago (“Is Eridia the last city?- The previous largest city, Lovent, was the epicenter of the first Fogfall. In the century since [...] )
We don’t know exactly the LI’s true natures or origins (yet), so monster, human, cursed, whatever their natural state is or however many beings are in one body, the oldest one has the advantage in this...well, 'age line' (?).
Kuras
In his character lore drop, “The Divine Teacher”, it is mentioned his figure has been present since “the earliest civilisations”. But if he’s a Monster, how did he escape the Shroud before the rest of the Monsters?
Vere
We know he’s had over a hundred celebrations (Birthday post ‘23) but also that the Senobium “bound a dangerous beast with a magic collar centuries ago” and the reports of the beasts’ first appearance were “ancient”—for something to be considered ancient, is must be “older than 2,000 to 5,000 years.” Make it make sense. It doesn’t, unless I’m taking the exact words too seriously. (Or he, like the MC, is cursed, and the beast inside him is seperate from Vere, like Ais and Ocudeus)
Ais
Either Ocudeus or him were alive and active before and during the first Fogfall (“As Monsters continued to abandon the Shroud” - character lore drop “Death Knell”).
I believe that this was Ocudeus, but we don’t know when it made the deal with Ais, so I’m putting both of them here.
Mhin
I want you to keep an open mind with this. If Lovent was destroyed during the first Fogfall and Mhin was there, it makes them at least a hundred years old.
Leander
He “came of age and packed his bags to chase his dreams twelve years ago”. The only straightforward thing about this man is his age.
The Wedding is my first Visual Novel. You can now buy it! Demo | Steam |Itch.io
And thank you all for the support. 💕
Steam finally decided to behave, so I can post my emotional rambling, and you’ll just have to endure it. 😄
Is it crazy to say that I’m more proud of The Wedding than When Life Gives You Lemons? Don’t get me wrong, I love both, and Lemons is probably the game that got me where I am since so many people resonated with it.
But as far back as I can remember, I’ve always wanted to make a Visual Novel, and now, four years later, with so much support from this community and a crash course in learning how to code in Ren’Py, it’s finally done. I finally published my first VN.
The graphics, the story, the characters... I love them all.
Micah holds a special place in my heart because I never thought I could create a character that sassy and still have readers fall in love with them. Cassidy was a last-minute addition and somehow became one of my favorite romances (sorry, I’m biased). Tara/Tariq is incredibly sweet, and their artwork with the bonnet is still one of my favorites.
And then there’s Danny and Taylor. All of them are so different, yet somehow they all came alive as I write every little scene and every little dialogue.
Yes, the launch was delayed on Steam because Steam needed to approve the page, and yes, I was kind of bummed out and was waiting before I made an official announcement.
But, Hey! It's finally available on Steam. 💕
This was a passion project; the game is nowhere near perfect, but I love it, flaws and all, and I’m incredibly proud of it.
Thank you all for the support. Thank you to all my Kickstarter backers. I’m so grateful to have an audience willing to read my silly little stories.
Here’s to more stories coming your way, however cringy they may be. 💕
