I seem to recall you mentioning you were working on a twine text game a while ago. Am I going crazy, or did you actually say that?

I did say that! In fact, I posted a demo of it for all of my Patrons a couple of years ago, promising to finish it at some point, but I, uh, didn’t! Because follow through has never been my strong suit. That said, the demo is quite large, and I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.

As for working on other twine stories, I’m still very interested in doing that, but it’s also very hard to find the time to do so, because these stories require a sizable investment of time/energy, much more than the standard story I put out. It’s also a bit difficult to come up with ideas that would be well served by that format that I’m interested in writing. On one hand, I don’t want to create a “character generator” story, where plot is thin, and mostly you’re just crafting a persona. But there has to be some space for reader interaction as well, or it’s just a regular old story. The demo I wrote struck a surprisingly good balance mostly by accident, and I’m not sure how to make it work again.

Then again, I’m so disappointed in Dream Daddy that I have thought about creating a dating/TF simulator of my own of some variety, but that’s still very, very far from any sort of realization.
