We are in September already, so here’s a new update!
First, these past 2 weeks I’ve been really sick. Like, really sick. I couldn’t even check my phone bc when I did, my head hurt. I had a really bad stomach ache but, thankfully, I’m more okay now.
But, it was during those past weeks that Patreon informed me that my page had been approved! It was a bittsweet news bc I had been waiting for it but when it did, I was sick, lmao. I didn’t feel like share it with others… until now!
There’s already one post on my Patreon. It’s about the final design of screen of the revamp of my game “Love, I’m not good for you”, with some other design details (full image is also on Patreon!) Also, there’s some big news regarding this game:
When I created this game, the full story had been planned out in my mind but I decided to just create a small game for the beginning of it, perfect for a game jam (O2A2 jam).
But since doing the whole revamp of the game and drawing the characters, I realized that I actually want to work on the full story now! I want people to know these characters and their relationships, it’s mostly a cute fluff story. But ofc, the mystery genre stays, hehehe.
So I’m planning just 2 more (free) games related to this series. They’ll be incredibly short as well. I want to keep the “short” essence of the original game.
Also, an important update regarding the MC of this game:
While I was thinking more about this story, I realized the protagonist was beginning to be more and more comfy being a “she”. And then, I realized that, in this game, she’s actually an egg (a trans person who doesn’t realize they are trans yet).
And I had two choices: I could leave this first game as a ”mystery BL story” and revealing after that she’s trans… or I could say from the beginning that’s she’s trans but has’t realized yet at this point of the story.
And I asked myself, as a trans person: “How would I feel if people remember me using my [old] name and [another] gender that’s not me right now?” I understand that in the past I was using [other] name and [other] gender but that’s NOT how I want to be referred as because it takes the agency of me RIGHT. NOW. It feels so transphobic.
I really didn’t want people to refer to the MC as any other gender than her own. Even if at that point of her life she identified as a “he” because I know the full story (I’m the creator, hehehe) and she wouldn’t like AT ALL to be remembered as “he”. Just that she was a cute little egg.
So, from now on, this game is now a “mystery otome visual novel” bc the MC is a cute egg. Besides, the mystery was never her gender. If you’ve played the game, you know what I mean. The next games will also be a mystery, hehehe.
