Hmmm could you like 👉👈 post more about the species and roles of the main characters? So we can make fan ocs?

oh there isnt much to say abt the character roles without spoiling the game but heres about the world:

-theyre called anthropes (greek for human/man)

-they live on present day earth, but the continents look a lot like the supercontinent pangea (as in its a big supercontinent instead of multiple smaller ones)

-they dont really wear clothes most of the time (fur covers the bits),only if they have a reason to (like for work/protection/hygiene or for fashion reasons) , however neck,ear and hair accessories are really popular

-only animals in the laurasiatheria superorder are anthropes (no scalies sorry)

-there isnt bad blood between herbivores/carnivores animals like a lot of furry fiction BUT carnivores do have repressed urges to eat people sometimes (this is specially important for Ami's character)

-any anthrope can reproduce with another anthrope of a different 'subspecies' (like a cat and a dog for example) and produce fertile offspring, however conception is easier/happens more often if theyre both of the same subspecies (like a dog and wolf)

-they have their own religions,but the most widely practiced one is a polytheistic religion whose gods represent opposites (god of death and life would be the same entity for example)

-most countries on their earth are communist/socialistic-adjacent, only a few of them are capitalistic (its my fictional world and i get to exercise my political fantasies)

-fur dyeing is really common amongst younger people, but they mostly stick to only dyeing certain parts of their body (like tail or ears/hair) since full body dye is expensive and hard to maintain

this is all i can think off of the top of my head :3 if u want to know anything specific lemme know!

[hospitaldev]

Since you're Brazilian, is there any chance you're translating the game to portuguese when it's out?

oh i definitely plan to!

[hospitaldev]

today im rewriting a lot of the older parts of the script so they sound/flow better :3 plus if i have time i'll try to write new parts too

i can turn anything into my sonic special interest, INCLUDING my own game project
