It's here.
The Shepherds of Haven Twine alpha build is live on Patreon!
What's New:
UI! A new UI for the game awaits you, including a range of visual themes to switch between light and dark mode, each with its own ‘minimalist’ version for those who favor strict readability! Stat screens, achievements, notifications, codex entries, newspaper articles, journal entries, storefronts, the day off hub, relationships, the character guide, the inventory, your room, trading cards, gambling, and so much more have been redesigned from the ground-up!
Miss the old look? Switch the font to Georgia and use the "Scholar" theme in your settings. You can even toggle "prioritize stat bars" if you want to change everything back to just stat bars!
A vast range of settings to customize your game! Includes several fonts and ways to read the text, including OpenDyslexic font, as well as toggles to disable or enable visual effects, music, and character art.
Robust save system! Now, you can not only use 10 different save slots on your browser (including autosaves), you can also download saves directly to your device, arrange and rename them as you like, and even use them to play the game between different devices and browsers!
Interactive maps! Explore and learn about the world of Blest like never before!
Music! A gorgeous custom soundtrack for the game was designed and composed by Ivan Duch and will play at key moments in the story.
Art! New character art, character cards, collectible trading cards, background art, codex documents, bestiary notes, and so much more have now been integrated into the game. Don’t miss the absolutely gorgeous cover designed by Angela Wang!
Fully mobile compatible! Though desktop is strongly recommended for the best gameplay experience, Shepherds is mobile-compatible and feature-rich regardless of what device you play it on.
Other gameplay improvements:
Trouble and Briony are now romanceable by players of all genders.
All players can change their pronouns at any times. Pronouns do not affect romances.
Gambling is now unlocked earlier.
Two day offs is now unlocked earlier.
You can now allocate different points in magic and weaponry training to different skills, not just one at a time.
For now, the new alpha build is only available on Patreon, primarily because this is all new to me and I was working under a severe crunch after the abrupt closure of Dashingdon. Once all the bugs have been ironed out, I feel less nervy, and the dust has settled down some--and I get some semblance of a functional daily life back again--I'll get to work making a public demo available to everyone. It shouldn't be too long of a wait!
In the meantime, please consider signing up for the Shepherds of Haven newsletter: you'll be notified of only the most important announcements--including the release of the public demo, beta-testing opportunities, DLC announcements, and more. Plus, you'll get a free exclusive digital wallpaper based on Shepherds of Haven! :)

Hey everyone, please consider buying the 2024 itch.io Palestinian Relief Bundle- it's 373 games, game-making assets, tabletop roleplaying games, zines, and comics for a minimum of just 8 USD! They have a goal of 100,000 USD, and as of the time I'm writing this post, they have 8 more days to reach it.
Link will be in the reblog!

those of you who have followed me for a while may have noticed that i took quite an extended absence from tumblr and i've been a bit cagey about why that is. i have been trying to be more thoughtful about the parts of myself i share with strangers on the internet, mostly as a way to guard against people who aren't very nice.
all of that being said, i've just finished my entry for the neo-twiny jam and i think the reason will be pretty obvious for everyone who plays it: i had a baby! (congratulations to me etc etc).
coming in at 494 words, this project has been a really cathartic opportunity to reflect concisely on one of the best and hardest things i've ever done.
with that, i hope you enjoy nine months out.
reflections on having a baby and maybe not being as totally fine as you keep telling people
self-recognition through the other (concerned)
damn. that guy needs help. yes i'm sure. no i'm not telling you why.

Hi ☀️
New UI and dark theme!
Between writing CH11, I've been working on a new UI for the game. It's a sleeker layout with settings to choose between a light and dark theme, as well as font style and font size options.
It also has a reactive mobile layout so that you can play the game in portrait mode/vertically as well!!
Note: In some mobile browsers, the pop-ups for the settings options don't seem to work - or maybe it's specific to Android/my phone. Like, they'll briefly pop open and then immediately close again before you can select anything.
I managed to get it working on Firefox, but as always, itch io is very finicky, so if the pop-ups don't work for you, try opening the game in desktop mode, or try using a different browser.
Hope you enjoy 💖
Being obsessed with your own OCs but literally never creating any art or content for them is such a curse. You'll be like "this reminds me of blorbo from my head :)", and everyone else will just be like "? who thef uck"
Ever since I heard Qiu blushes up to the ears I’ve been overcome by the cuteness
Baxter’s story has the most drama by far. He just can’t make life easy. However, after all of that, you sure can have a grand old time together, haha.
His DLC is launching TOMORROW 🥳

That really is the summary of Baxter Ward’s tale 🥲

The best ship dynamic is actually just. "I love you and it terrifies me. I'm terrified how much I need you and how much I want you to need me. I'm terrified I'm no good for you and I'm going to hurt you and ruin you and I'm terrified of how I feel when you're around me but I can't bear to push you away completely because I'm terrified to be without you so now we're stuck in limbo and that's terrifying too. I'm terrified that if I lost you now it'd destroy me and I'm terrified that it's too late to do anything about it. I love you. And it's terrifying."

The knowledge of their existence is rot to your brain, a parasite in your gut. Your father speaks of them as one would a mythical creature: a phantom who comes to you like a dream, and haunts you forever like a sickness in your heart. Beneath the mask, however, their face melts into something innocent and ceaselessly untrustworthy.
Thanks to @/princepol on Twitter for the art!

That’s an intentional joke. Baxter’s not that absurd of a texter. Anymore. This is Step 4. In Step 3, well, that behavior was entirely sincere, haha. His DLC will release in five days, on the 19th 💖!
