Updating Descriptions and Adding to Horror Maker Rpgs Collection!!

I was feeling nostalgic and started playing some dress up games. Eventually falling back into rpg maker games. Specifically horror. As I played plenty (too many lmao) of it when I was a young teen. So if you are interested I'll be casually updating throughout the weekend.

And adding descriptions to games I've already added/played.

[losergames]

Chop Shop is 18+ for language, themes, and explicit content. 

🔗 - Game Intro | Bug Report | Ko-Fi

Episode Five is now available! (+ 71,000) - PLAY ON ITCH OR NEOCITIES

Time to decompress.

Inez has a question.

Vote on a problem.

And more!

This update comes with a patch (Version 1.3.4) but you will not need to start a new save file. I've updated the neocities page so it's now actually has a game page and is not just the game file itself. Patch notes + author notes are under the cut. If preferred, you can access them in game at the start menu!

STORY

EPISODE 001:

Edited/rewrote the post-bar scenes. Felt like it needed some refreshing.

Edited/rewrote the 'end game' branch. Also needed a refresh.

Edited the look/ make of Jonno's car. This should now be consistent.

Other general edits and fixes.

EPISODE 002:

Edited the Dilani conversation at the end of the episode.

OTHER EPISODES:

General edits and fixes.

UI + TECHNICAL

DASHBOARD:

Updated background colours and padding for the Glossary list.

General edits and fixes.

CREATE A SAVE

Updated to include choices for Episode .005 selection.

AN: hi friends! been a while!!

i feel like i don't have much to say about episode 05 other than i am extremely proud and exhausted. i did not plan on writing this much and to take this long but hey-ho, we are finally here!

i think this is the heaviest chapter so far when it comes to crew interaction which i am excited about. there are many chances to gain friendship points as well as them actually counting towards variations and scenes towards the end. but, of course there's always the option to not get along with the crew too...

very excited for how that's going to play out in the future. we're getting there, slowly but surely, let the mc downfall begin.

a massive thank you to my wonderful betas that have put in an incredible effort to help me with this episode! it was a dense one to start with and i can't thank them enough for the help.

please direct any problems, bugs and/or errors the freshly updated bug report form.

finally -- happy update day!! thank you so much for the support and patience. i have had nothing but love during that long writing period and it really helped me keep going. i hope you enjoy reading - much love, becky :-) <3

Chapter 4 is here!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ANON! (I mean, it's probably not May 1st yet for you—I hope it is tho—but it's the thought that counts, right?)

I won't be free on my birthday, so I thought I could release the update today at midnight—that way I can tackle any bugs/errors/typos when I wake up. And that way I can also sleep on it and ignore the stress.

First, thanks a lot to the beta testers, but also to the two patrons who helped me catch several typos/bugs/errors! Thanks for the support from everyone too, you've all been there to hype me when I needed the boost.

Special thanks to the warrior I have in my corner who went through several routes just to find bugs!! I really appreciate and am grateful for the help.

Now,

In this chapter, you'll be able to...

Get your car with your chosen RO (unless you don't romance anyone)

Spend time with your chosen RO

Talk about Christmas approaching

Have some juicy revelations

Have dinner with your little family and your RO

Give your presents and open yours

Have a little moment with your brother

Have a little moment with your grumpy cat

Discover something

And experience some other things I definitely forgot about.

Your saves are definitely broken, simply because I changed the file and uploaded a new one, and because there's a few new variables. BUT! There's a feature for you to start from chapter 4 if you'd rather skip the rewrite. A bit clunky, but functional so far.

Chapter 4 is around +200k words—for some, it'll definitely feel shorter due to the many variables I put in it. It brings us to a total of roughly 840k words for LAD, and I'm already working on chap 5 :))

I really hope you enjoy this chapter. Hopefully, the next chap won't take as long as the rewrite + chap 4 took me. Thank you y'all for sticking with me despite having nothing much for a whole ass year<3

528 Days

That’s how long I’ve been waiting to drop this chapter. 528 days since I first conceived Chapter 6, and Cantata as a whole.

And it’s now available in EARLY ACCESS for KoFi and Patreon subscribers! 🥳

Some of the fun things coming at you in this chapter:

Revelations

Surprise cameos

More revelations

Romantic one-on-one moments with the ROs

Some real fucking big revelations 👀

No cliffhangers whatsoever 😇

As a reminder, early access is a rough draft. I need to polish some scenes and add more flavor text.

Public release will be May 22!

Demo coming this summertide! Thou art Morgan Le Fay, sister to King Arthur, apprentice and student to Merlin the Enchanter... for now.

A great destiny steeped in magic and mystery has been foretold to you, and the unnatural forces of this ancient world are guiding you towards it, whether or not you are willing. Having escaped heartache and woe, you are currently at liberty to enjoy a merry life at the court of Camelot, surrounded by kin and comrades. Raise your little son, learn from your ever-disgruntled warlock mentor, go on fantastical quests and romance the knights of the Round Table, or someone else entirely!

Customize your Lady Morgan's name and appearance, study rituals, raise your skill in different domains of sorcery (warcasting, trickery, divination and more), shape your relationship with your child and much more in this text-based fantasy interactive fiction based around Arthurian legend.

Love interests:

Merlin (m). He's old, prickly, sometimes mean... but less so to you than others, which is gratifying. His study is your sanctuary, his wit your sparring partner. You suspect your tutor is hiding a great many things from you, so pursuing him could be a bad idea. But perhaps you cannot resist an attempt to wiggle your way into his affections.

Sir Kay (m). King Arthur's foster-brother and seneschal of his lands. A behemoth of a man; tall, wide, thickly muscled. He's a brute, but he's carried a torch for you ever since you met him. Whether or not you entertain his affections is of course up to you, but the decision might be easier if only he stopped being so cruel to some of the aspiring knights who should be his protégés.

Sir Gawain (m). The bastard brother to King Lot, who's your sister Morgause's husband... small world. He is Sir Kay's best friend, though the two could not be more different. Fair Gawain is charitable, popular with the men at arms and so charming that he's widely known as the Maidens' Knight. Not that he is without his shortcomings; you would know, given he has somehow become a dear protector and confidant. Perhaps you still want him.

Sir Galahad (m/f*). An upstart knight from a backwards province, he should be fated to obscurity, but possesses strange talents and seems to carry a touch of the divine. Sir Lancelot brought him to court, so impressed was he with the young lad. Maybe you knew him long before he was presented to the Round Table, though. Maybe you've seen him in your dreams. If only Galahad, put off by your witchcraft, didn't hate you to the point of obsession...

Guenevere (f), the golden Queen of Camelot. Your brother's wife. She's the most beautiful woman in Albion, and the most talkative, and perhaps, paradoxically, the loneliest. She desperately wishes for your approval, but with the way she acts sometimes, it's hard not to wonder what else she might be wishing for.

Ninianne (f). The Lady of the Lake, ancient and most powerful fairy in all of Albion. She is the mother of Sir Lancelot, has tested your brother's might and appears to share a complicated history with Merlin. She's a mystery and seems to know much more about you than you can be entirely comfortable with.

Setting: this is not a precise retelling of any particular Arthurian cycle and lots of liberties were taken with the characters. Albion is a highly fictionalized version of/inspired by 13th-14th century England and Brittany.
