The It Lives Project

In light of the recent news that Pixelberry has cancelled all future books for the It Lives anthology, a group of dedicated fans has come together to create our own final book. We are calling it the It Lives Project, and this is the official blog to follow for any news, updates, and information.

WHO WE ARE

We are just a group of passionate It Lives fans, creators, writers, and artists who came together to give this story the ending it deserves.

OUR GOAL

Our goal is to create a visual novel to tell the final chapter of the It Lives story. We will release a full-sized book (15-20 chapters) with a story controlled by player choices. The finished product will be playable online, and we plan to release it onto the app and play stores for free. Using programming software, we’ll recreate the Choices format with different choice trees and outcomes to tell a new story. The story will include a fresh, gender-customizable MC and four new love interests, all while incorporating player choices from the previous novels.

Go ahead and follow this page to keep up-to-date on this project! If you have any questions, our ask box is always open.

We love you all!

ICE has been ordered to release children but they're the ones who get to decide if they release their parents as well or if they're just throwing these kids out, so please at the very least sign this petition

[fagmyers]

PS. this isn't a change.org petition either, so it is worth signing!

sorry to disappoint u guys but i wouldn’t hold my breath for blades 2… why would they announce it for a year as arbitrary as 2022?? they did the same thing for hero 2 and rod 2 when they announced them for 2020 and we see how that went, not to mention that blades 2 is probably more expensive art-wise since it’s fantasy and given their track record with not wanting to release as many ‘expensive’ books, i’m willing to bet money that it’ll get axed soon too. calling it rn. lol once oh3 is over im dippin dots

[ratanslily]

honestly blades 2 is way too far and my patience is thinning. ik good stuff takes time but after all bs they pulled this year.. im worried. about blades 2 never happening like hero 2

also i can say this for sure, if blades 2 doesnt happen, their app is gonna shut down

i think it’s kinda funny the differences in how PB is with tumblr and twitter. like on twitter, they’ll respond to fan replies and posts and etc. the engagement is there. whereas with tumblr, they’re here, but just watching all of our shit from behind a glass wall. cause based on the type of things they said in their newsletter, they Do see and hear us but they have never replied to anything we said and don’t touch our posts or comments with a ten foot pole

Help us kick Bezos in the dick

Boss Baby Bezos is at it again! Amazon opened a union busting website for people to report workers unions, so lets do the world a favor and waste Jeff’s time, money, and life energy (I hope) by spamming his website with bogus reports. Eat shit, Jeff.

That’s all fun and good but I guarentee their systems are filtering out spam.

According to what other people have suggested, include keywords which will make sure your submission gets through, and avoid keywords that might filter it.

Expletives are probably filtered, as well as major meme keywords like “Shrek”, “meme”, “Script”, “Bee”, “Furry”, “Fanfiction”, “Gay”, also “Bezos” is probably filtered too I bet.

Keywords that are hypothetically more likely to get your post noticed: “Pamphlets”, “Unions” and “Unionization”, “Capitalism”, “Wages”, “Profit”, “Labor”, “Workers”, “Emails”, “Rights”, etc. Things that would be mentioned in union emails or pamphlets. Also, use keywords that identify you as an actual employee: “Warehouse”, “Company”, “Employee”, “Coworker”, “Shift”, “On Break”, etc.

So, sentences like these will help increase legidimacy: “Another employee in the warehouse has been handing out pamphlets on unionization and talking about workers rights.” or “I’m getting emails from someone in the warehouse about labor laws and criticizing the company’s wages.”

Use things like U(state letters)(number) in the tagline and at the start. Make the name and email seem legit. Flood their systems with useless info.

So say you get past filters. Someone’s gonna read your submission, and you want to get them going. Have a strong, in-character intro and conclusion, since those will be skimmed first. Include your misleading content in the body of your submission, and try to hide it well. For instance:

[justsomeantifas]

yes, again, your memes and jokes arent going to be as helpful. please actually waste THEIR time. not YOUR time.

I’m really happy to see y’all taking more of an interest in ‘work songs’ and such! It’s been nice seeing more suggestions for good folk music and being able to learn more about the history behind where a lot of this music comes from. I think it’s also helpful in that many of us working class folks can relate to the lyrics and experiences that these songs came out of.

That being said, I only have one gripe and I’ve been talking about this in different contexts for a while:

I want working class white Americans on this site, who are really getting into the old union/work songs now, to be mindful of the way y’all react to working class poc (like myself and many others) giving nuanced critiques of why they they may not like a certain song and the history behind it.

Like, I really need y’all to recognize that y’all working class white folks ain’t the only ones who are working class citizens with struggles in this country. I love the idea of absolute solidarity between all of us but if y’all can’t come to recognize that antiblack/indigenous racism has and continues to play a HUGE role in keeping us where we are in this country, then solidarity will never actually happen.

Y’all still have the privilege of being white, in a white dominated society, that is purposely built to uplift y’all. Just because it didn’t happen that way for you doesn’t mean that racism has suddenly disappeared and that your black/nonwhite coworkers don’t have an extra target on their back that they have to deal with, on top of being a working class citizen.

I’m not asking for y’all to feel ‘guilty’ about anything or to stop singing songs and I genuinely resent when that’s y’all’s immediate response to us when any of us share our feelings on topics like this. What I’m asking is for y’all to learn how to de-center your specific, white American experience as the ‘real working class experience’ and make room for working class poc to share our stories, feelings, ideas, and songs.

That’s all, man. Just remember that you’re not the only ‘underdog’ in this situation and that poc should be able to represent themselves without y’all immediately getting defensive and turning the whole conversation into a battle of ‘but I’m struggling, too, and I’m white uwu.’
