Hi there 🤗 , I am so happy you working on your first game, l love your writing so much ❤️, just question will there be a romance options?if yes will they be gender locked ? I have that bad luck in games always fall for the one that is gender locked 😅 .

Thank you! :D

Currently there are 6 official romances between the heroes and villains.(I'll be saying exactly who in an upcoming post) There is also an extra three romances/characters that I have planned but still need to figure out how they fit into the story.

All the romances are available no matter the gender of the Mc however there may be some issues that arise depending on choices your character has made. The biggest example I can think of for this is if an Mc has killed in the past, something like this will end up being a discussion between your character and the certain romance options this is an issue with.

Some recent sketchwork. And the pictures just devolve into mushy romance..........

And a very angry young man named Perry

I live for the mega in-love characters who are complete badasses but still act like dorks around their respective partner(s) and suddenly go from “Major General BAMF” to “god damnit Alex quit grabbing Kaye’s bum during war meetings THE ROOKIES ARE WATCHING!”.

The Season of You and Me by Robin Constantine - Review

Grades:

Overall – B Character Development – C Plot – B Character Romance – A

The Season of You and Me by Robin Constantine was another I’d had on my TBR pile for a while and finally got around to it. I wouldn’t say I was impressed by the book but I wasn’t disappointed either.

TSOYAM is about two characters who meet while working at a summer day camp. Cassidy is running away from her boyfriend who dumped her. Bryan is relearning his life now that he’s in a wheelchair.

I think the plot of this book is pretty stunted for one that has so much potential. An MC in a wheelchair is huge for YA as visible disabilities (and invisible disabilities) fight for more page time. I’m not saying I want this book to be about Bryan in a wheelchair. But I wish we knew him better. I felt his development was almost nonexistent (except for that one thing he does at the end). He turns out to be just the love interest/guy in wheelchair. I wanted more from him.

Cassidy is okay in the development area but she doesn’t jump off the page as someone you want to root for. She exists and I think I liked her well enough, but until the end when she goes off with her ex boyfriend I really didn’t feel any strong feelings for or against her. Then, in a relatively anti-climactic turn of events, Cassidy leaves her ex-boyfriend behind and goes back to Bryan. Problem solved, crisis averted, everyone go home.

The most redeeming thing about this book is the way Bryan’s friends handle his new disability. Note: Bryan was not born without the use of his legs. He lost the use of the bottom half of his body after an accident when he tried to do some parkour. Anyway, Bryan’s brother and their friends pitch in to get Bryan’s surfboard updated so that he can still ride it. Bryan is hesitant and afraid but his friends encourage him, even when he yells at them and pushes them away. This point of the book is what turned Bryan into a likeable character for me. Unfortunately, it comes at the very end of the book.

The romance between these too is so cute that I’m almost willing to overlook the other stuff and give the book an A. Almost. 

I want more development for both of these characters, but the plot is easy to follow and just heavy enough to be good but not so heavy that you need a break halfway through. If you’re looking for a quick read, this is a great book to pick up!

Suggested Reading: This Lullaby by Sarah Dessen. Emotionally charged enough that you’ll feel for the characters but easy enough that you can read it with only one pack of tissues.

I am really loving Fallout 4. But Bethesda fails SO BADLY at romance compared to BioWare. I have an active romance with MacCready but the only time I know it is the very rare occasions I go to sleep with him as my companion. Otherwise his ambient dialogue is the same. Didn't even get an achievement. I actually ditched him as a companion for Deacon because I like Deacon's smart ass personality better but you can't romance Deacon :( And there's so many NPCs with Garrus' voice but none can be companions (or romanced). Fail Bethesda.
