@divineinterventiongame
I honestly thought you abandoned this IN I am so happy to see it continued to be worked on😍❣️
im working on it! but incredibly slowly--slowly to the point that i think i'll probably release the full thing all at once or entirely completed routes as they come
In a move that has surprised even me, I’ve decided the final port for the Divine intervention game will be..... GOOGLE DOCS!!!
I know this is a weirdo harebrained move but I have realized i DO NOT have it in me to write this while learning a new platform (like. it will just never get done) and I’ve made more progress writing an update and moving this story into docs than i have the last 4 months playing with RenPy and Twine.
there are still a lot of things to work out but i can confirm progress is finally happening again!!
Wow congratulations on rounding out your grad program!! You should be very proud !!
Thank you!! I'm v happy with the overall experience and got exactly what i wanted in terms of expanding job opportunities and such, so overall it was an excellent investment (which imo is really the best evaluator for masters programs)
How are you
I'm good!! About to finish my grad program (on my last day TODAY actually) so im super excited to have some time off. Hopefully I'll be able to start dusting off this story in the next few weeks heehee
Which religion is best for humanity
I finally got around to checking out the demo and the world is really interesting! The concept of the story works really well for IF too -- not that that's a requirement BUT i can see so many ways in which this could go. all of them awesome :D
This is old by now but since I've checked the blog a few times this week i just wanted to say thank you!! that's very sweet and i'm glad~
did u decide whtehr youre staying with choicescript or not?
Oh uhh I don't want to stay with CS for sure (their whole thing of treating it as a proprietary software while being totally happy to allow dashingdon to front to cost of most game hosting and testing like. REALLY pisses me off the more I think about it.. so that combined with the increasingly predatory author-monetization rules is like... bye forever) but i still have no idea whether I'm gonna switch to twine or smthn more visual...
I can't really worry about it much until I graduate anyway, so! once i decide this blog will be the first place I post about it!!
lmaoo just remembered renpy is built on python yeah im not learning twine when i already know python renpy it is

Hello! First of all, I love the demo it's great! But more importantly; are you doing ok? Is the game no longer in development?
Hope you have a good day :)
Hi! I'm on hiatus until finishing my graduate program (I'm done this May!!) but I'm planning on picking this up again after.

hello dear author! what is your favorite route?
haha im not sure i'd be a very good author if I had a clear favorite route! I like writing all of them, just because each god(dess) pair is so different from all the others.
That said, if I was a player, I'd probably play either Japan's or Egypt's route first, just because those types of routes are my favorite as a reader.
What kind of music do they like? And do you have a song you associate with them?
i DO have music that I associate with each of them but in terms of music they like... i think their tastes would all be so eclectic that it would be difficult to describe. But in addition to their region's and era's typical music, here's their next favorite genre: Greece: pop and hip-hop; Egypt: classical (romantic and contemporary); Babylon: international pop and big band jazz; Japan: alt/glam rock; Scandinavia: hard rock.
as for songs... i'm not very good at that but i'll try my best! I might try to capture the vibe of their route rather than the gods themselves..
Egypt: Fire for You
Greece: Sunday Best
Babylon: Tadow
Japan: I Wanna Be Yours
Scandinavia: Nothing's Gonna Hurt You Baby
Clientele: Greece
Hebe - 5′9″ - personable | vivacious | charming
Considered to have dominion over youth by Grecians many ages ago. She still maintains a respectable degree of influence in the modern age, thanks to both the beauty industry and human vanity standards. As such, she is able to visit the human world on occasion. She cannot, however, maintain any use of her ever-dwindling powers.
She has flaxen hair and olive skin, which she frequently keeps braided and well-accessorized in intricate, modern styles. Her eyes are light brown. It's clear she makes a great effort to keep up with the style trends of the human world and as a result, she looks far more approachable than some of the other clients your firm handles.
Hermes - 5′9″ - charismatic | jovial | enchanting
Considered to be the herald of the Grecian gods many ages ago. He still maintains a respectable degree of influence in the modern age, thanks both to technology's role in communication and his occasional portrayal in media. As such, he is able to visit the human world on occasion. He cannot, however, maintain any use of his ever-dwindling powers.
He has tanned, freckled skin and soft honey-brown curls which are often covered by an ever-growing collection of hats. His eyes are a dull green. It's clear he makes a great effort to keep up with the style trends of the human world and as a result, he looks far more approachable than some of the other clients your firm handles.
Hi,is size really matter?
??
Hiya!
Not really the most organized ask, but can I get some general information about a relationship with Shamash?
I am super excited to hear more about them, almost as excited as I was in the first place to see someone from the Babylonian pantheon. As a history major I love to see all the variety in your game, especially from civilizations whose mythos aren't discussed as much!
Hi!!
I'm currently envisioning Shamash's (and by extension Sherida's, as their romances parallel each others) route as more on the mellow side. They’re both older gods with a wealth of experience with romance (and I am keeping consistent with the mythology of them being married--they’re in an open relationship where they’re committed to each other eternally and don’t have any romantic leanings toward other gods, but are fine with each other taking human partners for the duration of a human’s life). There won’t be a poly-route with both, just due to coding limitations in the way I’ve scripted this (essentially if you meet one of a pantheon you’re not meeting the other).
They’re also both the least prideful and most down to earth of all the gods (the reason for which I think I’ve hinted at in the demo).
This isn’t as much to do with the route but they’re both fine with either the mesopotamian/sumerian or babylonian versions of their names, respectively
A reminder! You are making something beautiful- carving entire universes and crafting whole people and painting them all with both vividness and detail. Then you reduce your ideas to squiggles on a screen so that you can share them with us! This story ignites the imagination of so many people! But we support you first, and your story second. It’s a wonderful world-creating magic you possess. And this IF truly is a lovely gift. Thank you for sharing it with us. The world is lucky to have you.
oh my gosh thank you so much??? i can think of so many other IFs that i think have created more interesting and thought-provoking universes than mine but its really nice to hear you're enjoying it/finding some degree of inspo from it!!
hoping i'll be able to work on it again soon <3
Something about Shamash? 👉👈
(to the other anon that sent a request for shamash/sherida, i'm saving yours for when i have a chance to do a sherida drabble)

“Ah. You… did not exaggerate the smell, I must say.”
Your companion is right. The smell of rotting seaweed and brackish water is strong today. Pungent. The wind isn’t helping, and you wince as you take in the sight of brackish water on the horizon. It’s hardly a tropical paradise.
“The sand. It’s quite course as well.”
“Sorry.” You told him that it wasn’t a pretty beach and he insisted on coming anyway, but appeasing the god seems a better choice than blaming him outright. “It’s nicer in the summer, I guess.”
“No matter.” He stands, arms akimbo, taking in the sight of the shore. “It is serving its purpose.”
Your partner is dressed… well. Like a beach bum, really. Gaudy shirt, plastic sunglasses, a sunhat. His shirt is only buttoned two thirds of the way up, and you notice a gold chain buried in his thick curls of chest hair before flicking your eyes away. You stand slightly behind him, waiting for him to move. To go back to the car. To do anything.
He’s clearly content to just stand there, so you pull out your phone.
“Do you not enjoy it,” he asks once your phone is in hand.
“Enjoy what? The beach?”
“Any of it.”
Any of--? You send him a look that he can’t see and wait for an explanation that doesn’t come. He just keeps looking out over the water.
Nearly ten minutes pass before he turns back to you.
“Apologies. You’ve indulged this old man’s whims once again.”
'Man.' You're not sure whether that's false modesty or his idea of a joke. No matter. “It’s no big deal. I didn’t really have any other plans.”
“A pity for you; a great boon for me. I enjoy your company.”
