FAQ

Q: How many chapters is Incubus going to be?

A: Probably around 10.

Q: What's the release schedule?

A: The plan is to release each chapter no more than 2-3 months apart.(*)

Q: When will the final chapter be released?

A: Sometime in 2026.(*)

Q: Will Incubus be released as a complete game with all the chapters in one?

A: No, almost certainly not.

Q: Will there be a discount if I wait to buy all the chapters at once?

A: The chapters will probably be collected into a itch.io bundle and sold with a $1 discount once the final chapter is released.

Q: I don't like to read/play unfinished stories. Should I wait for the final chapter before I start?

A: I completely understand--I'm the same! However, Incubus is a long-form narrative and was never really intended to be consumed all at once--though, of course, you can! Here's how the arcs play out chapter-wise: Chapters 1-3 = first arc Chapters 4-5 = second arc Chapter 6 onward = all standalone chapters So, hopping onboard after Chapter 3, Chapter 5, and then every chapter after that should provide enough satisfaction and closure for most players.

Q: Will you be releasing Incubus on any platforms other than as a downloadable for PC/Mac?

A: There are no current plans to do this while the story is still being released. I may evaluate my options at a later date, but this is no guarantee.

talking abt flea and tiktok i found a sheriff star nipple piercing on there and i fully believe (once flea figures out tiktok shop) he would’ve bought it and role played as a cunning sheriff and the detective a dastardly outlaw who he finally caught but may be convinced to release

I'm torn between that being too cringe for Flea to willingly do, or it being just cringe enough to bother the detective that Flea has to do it.

In the earlier chapters, I think you can see how actually uptight Flea is about sex and existing as someone who needs to be perceived sexually. It's all "don't bother touching me, let's skip the boring stuff, I'll die before I wear a frumpy sweater, etc." He's come a long way since then. So, probably, the longer he and the detective's relationship goes on, the more open and happy to be silly with sex Flea becomes.

Okay, in the case of my specific playthrough, I think it's sort of sweet that Josie is Ted's first and last everything - and considering my detective's background and how I headcanon a lot of stuff about him, I could say that it's the same about him and Flea (regardless of what Flea currently feels about that!).

In almost every way that counts, the detective is that for Flea, too.

#asks

Not sure if this question has been asked before. So please ignore if it was or if it's too early to talk about.

But I'm curious what would happen to Flea and the detectives relationship if he had gone back to Pandemonium as planned. Like if the only thing that was different, was that he didn't kill his brother. Would Flea visit the detective or anything like that?

At that fairly early stage in their relationship, I think Flea would rather just cut ties--with the human plane, in general. He might pop over to check in on the detective once or twice, but I doubt he'd ever announce his presence.

#asks

How would Ted describe his sexuality? How would he have reacted to a queer detective coming out to him?

Josie is Ted's first and only everything, pretty much, and he doesn't spend a lot of time contemplating his sexuality. But, let's say they're sitting down together and watching Fellowship of the Ring (Josie's choice; Ted doesn't get it but it's her movie night). Ted will be wolf whistling both Cate Blanchett and Sean Bean. Does it mean anything? He doesn't know, and he doesn't really care.

Ted would've reacted to a coming out from the detective with an almost overbearing amount of support in the moment. Then things would pretty quickly go back to normal.

#asks

not a q but i love flea </3 i cant believe he's not real like wdym a plane-bound incubus isn't sharing an apartment with me rn

This is bullshit! BULLSHIT!

#asks #i feel you anon

Has Flea found TikTok yet? Does he watch YouTube?

I fear he may have found TikTok...

#asks

I feel like an 'I love you' from Flea has the potential to completely wreck the detective. Especially ones who haven't heard those words since before their family died. I love these two so much, they're so similair and so different and so absolutely perfect for each other.

Oof. Yeah. Not been a lot of love in either of their lives for a looooooong time.

#asks

If flea got to go back to pandemonium as planned, would he have stopped doing the shit that got him kicked out in the first place?

Mmm... yes and no? He'd have lost that "wild child" energy that always got him in trouble and he wouldn't be spending so much time on the human plane anymore, which was one of his main transgressions. But his time planebound would be something that stayed with him for a long time, maybe forever. He might never be able to fit back into Pandemonium the way demons are expected to fit. So, I think there would still be demons that didn't like him and considered him a deviant--it's just that instead of annoying them, this time he would deeply unsettle them.

#asks

About the birthday ask:

Would Flea be more ammenable to celebrate "his birthday" on the day he and the detective met rather than share the detective's? With my detective's mindset, I don't think he'd actually suggest celebrating on the same day - but that on the other hand I can imagine!

For Flea, the day he met the detective is more of a memory he looks back on and cringes at. What came from it was amazing and he wouldn't change it, but he's not exactly proud of anything he did or said that night. So it wouldn't be a natural pick for him for a "birthday". However! If the detective suggested it, and spun it just right, I could see Flea coming around to the idea.

I fully believe the detective should sometimes lenghten Flea's name to something ridiculous like Fleartholomew just to piss him off a little. As a treat.

Okay, yes, you are onto something here.

However, you should tread lightly. If your detective is someone who would do this, or someone who would call Tabby "Tabitha" when she knocks something off a shelf, Flea will pick up on that shit and start using it relentlessly with the detective, too. If they don't have a long version of their name, he will get creative.

#asks

I'm rereading again, just finished Chapter 3, and losing my mind about the moment at the end where Flea turns back in the door to kiss the detective, because—I think—it's the first time they kiss outside of an obviously transactional sex scene, and the fact that Flea is the one to initiate it has me kicking my feet and giggling and thrashing around in my enclosure. Okay thanks bye.

Yes! That was one of the first Big Moments™ I wrote for Flea, and I love how small it is, you know?

#asks

the relationship development between the detective and flea hits so hard for me, i've been a sucker for slow burns with complex changes/redefinitions in dynamic and intimacy my whole life.

i also want to say that the potential love confession scene in chapter 8 made me Feel Things (positive) as someone who's aromantic and aplatonic. i see the recent asks about it and fully acknowledge the overall vibe that whatever flea is feeling may ultimately be allo, no hard feelings from me about that if true. but fuck my heart goes out to flea so much for feeling so deeply and strongly for the detective, saying so, and not seeing it as love. critical discussions about monster/inhuman aromantic-aligned rep aside, it's sometimes only these characters that, for me, get how strange and lonely and scary it is to see love as weird or unidentifiable while still feeling. flea wants and feels so much about the detective! is that love? i don't know either, flea!! and i'm human!

i don't know how chapter 9 will follow through on the detective's side of things, but it just kills me (also positive) that they can immediately tell him he doesn't have to reciprocate. i would cry if i could care that much for someone and that someone was truly content with my not feeling/considering it as love, and going on as the relationship has gone.

again, no hard feelings or expectations about the ultimate direction of the story. it's all yours. i just wanted to let you know that this part of it, in a story that already gets a little fluid with sexuality and intimacy, really connected with me from an aromantic pov <3

Thank you so much for sharing these lovely, detailed thoughts! Getting this kind of insight is such a motivation and confidence booster. <3

Yeah, Flea is still working through his feelings, with a lot of complicated stuff to untangle in himself before he can confidently recognise and accept them for what they are. The most important thing, I think, is that even without that we know how devoted he is to the detective; how vital they are to him; how happy he is just being around them. Whatever else might fall into place within the next two chapters, those are undeniable facts.

#asks

aw man, now i'm thinking about flea insisting they celebrate the detective's birthday, detective being like 'fine but only if we celebrate your birthday when it comes around', flea admitting he doesn't remember when it is, so detective's like 'okay we'll share mine then.' 🥺

That's a lovely thought! Flea might struggle to share the day with the detective, since he already feels like they don't prioritise themself enough as it is. But if the detective really wanted it he'd cave. Before that, he'd probably suggest just making up a birthday for himself first--"If it's really that important to you, babe."

100% accurate.

#asks

how would our favourite cutie patootie Flea feel about a detective who's super into music having a whole thing of introducing him to the songs they've loved throughout their life? sorta using it as a way of getting closer and opening up to him

Flea's always looking for ways to crawl inside the detective so deep he can't be dug out, so of course he would love learning more about them through the music they care about.
