Welcome to REMEDIUM, The Doctor’s Very Last Horrible Thing. You may call me the Fae, though the story I will be telling is not about my kind, but Vampires: indeed, what I will be making is a Vampires SMP indie video game based around Legundo’s POV.
In this masterpost, you may find a lot of things, such as information on the project and who is making it.
All of this can be found under the cut. But before then, I must ask for us to get acquainted, and such, may I have your name?

WHAT IS REMEDIUM?
As I said, this project is an indie video game based on Legundo’s POV of Vampires SMP! It will be a story-driven game with combat and choices leading you to multiple paths and endings. Will the Doctor be able to help everyone? Or will you just lead him to his demise once more?
It will be a ship free game (though, in Legundo’s words, while v!Legs and v!Owen weren’t necessarily dating, they’re sure as heck divorced by the end of it all) and content-creator friendly. There may be gore, but it all depends on my ability to draw blood.
WHEN CAN I PLAY?
That’s sure an ambitious question. Here’s the honest answer: I don’t know! I’m a very busy Fae and am doing this mostly on my own, so it will certainly not be out tomorrow. However, I do have a demo that I am actively working on, mostly showcasing the game’s mechanics, which should be out soon, roundabouts a few months, considering I have vowed to only post this after I’ve made considerable progress on it, which can be considered a prologue to Oakhurst. Estimated play time would be maybe around 5 minutes.
The game as a final product has an undetermined amount of play time. Likely over an hour, though.
HOW CAN I SUPPORT THIS PROJECT?
That’s easy. Comment! Leave asks! Talk about it! I will not accept a single penny for this project, and money would never enrich my passion more than you guys interacting with this project! Please leave asks, comments and reblogs, I will eat them all up. They will directly influence my progress on this.
HOW CAN I HELP IN ITS DEVELOPMENT?
Sadly, REMEDIUM will not be opening up applications. The reason for that is the fact that I wouldn’t be able to find a way to communicate with people if I were to, that management takes a darn whole lot of time, and that I have a very specific vision for this project. However, please leave ideas for the game in whatever way you see fit, whether that be asks, comments or reblogs! They may be implemented, who knows? :D
(The decision not to open applications may be subject to change, but do not get your hopes too high up.)
WHO IS THE ONE PULLING THE STRINGS?
The Fae is handling this project—though you may call me (ThisWild)Marm, or Teri. I am the main person pulling the strings, though I am helped by a few people: My very dear Foam [@seafoamwaffle] (she/her), helping me handle this very Tumblr, my beloved Cat [@cattreats4humans] (they/them) and very talented Skye [@autumnwhistles] (she/her), who will be making all the music/soundtracks for REMEDIUM, along with the wonderful Glacier[@justglacier12] (neopronouns) who is gonna be making some of the character art! There’s also Pie [@thedoomedpie] (they/them), who I suppose is not an official member of the team, but has been the guiding hand I needed to start learning code.
I go by he/fae/neos/they (faes have also gone woke, it turns out) my tumblr is @thiswildmarm, and I also work on @project-lumen ! I was originally hired as a writer in the first round of application, then found myself trying out pixel art when we turned out to be short-staffed on that front. This allowed me to envision a world where I can make projects like these myself! :D (except for the music part—I do not have a single musical bone in my body.)
I must thank Legundo, for his subathon, his acknowledgement of my chat messages mentioning this mysterious “v!legs fanproject”, and for chat, who unknowingly supported me through this process =D
The fact that this masterpost has been posted is a direct promise of completion of this project. It will not be abandoned, because I didn't just post this on a whim one day, I have already worked to prove myself that it is possible for me to make this.
Now, you may be asking, "Dear scary, evil, moustreous fae, why are you posting about l'Eid? This isn't block man video game!"
...and, you're right! You're right, it's not. But let's be honest here, how many projects will post something for Christmas, Halloween, heck, even Easter as it's coming up? If they get to show off and celebrate their cultures, then so do I. Because yeah! I'm not white! Surprise!
And I do want to specify that I am not muslim, simply arabic. But I grew up as and around muslims for my whole life, and I want to celebrate that!
Holidays like these are often forgotten about and pushed aside for the ones that are more celebrated by priviliged people. We, arabics and muslims, usually get forgotten about! But I don't want that. I want to celebrate this holiday.
This post has taken so long in my day to come out because I've just been having a great time. My brother came back for the first time in months to celebrate this occasion, and brought gifts. He brought our family a TTRPG game, and I will finally be able to test that out! I'm even the DM! Our neighbors and family friends stopped by and are excited to get to play with us. We're having a wildly different age demographic, the youngest player being 6 years old. Will it be difficult for her? Probably. But we were reunited by family and tradition and we'll accomodate for her!
I woke up at 7 AM this morning with my family to walk to the Mosque and saw how happy they were at the amount of muslims there was present. I was happy that they could walk around and feel proud about their religion, especially when I leave in a country that is very racist to arabs.
I wanted to make this post because it's important to me that I show my culture. And, sure, will I be posting on Easter and Christmas? maybe. I don't know!
When I first started identifying as an atheist, i thought I'd want to celebrate christmas for once. But that's not the case, because christmas doesn't mean anything to me. Sure, I like seeing my friends get excited about it and have a moment of community and family in december, but that's not that moment for me. For me, that's l'eid. That's the entirety of ramadan.
And, hey, if you really want me to stick to block man, v!Legundo is a doctor. He'll tell you how good fasting is for your body.
But for now, rest up. Have a nice day. Call your family and spend time with them! Whether you celebrate l'eid or not, I wish you the best.
This isn't about block man. This is about me celebrating my culture in a space I feel safe in. Thank you for listening.

We've talked about Glacier. We've talked about Pie. Now it's Foam's turn.

Everyone... the. every other week remedium update post except i had no idea what to do so i just complained about it and make a shitpost out of what i do have.
why am i doing this you ask? i dont know. i dont have a life.
Welp. The main main mechanics of the overworld of remedium have basically been complete. There's only very basic UI left for me to do and a lot of Legundo watching while arting to do. Hey, maybe we'll finally get some more Rem art dumps in the future!
But yeah. I've got. I've got no witty thing to show off. It's just. its foam. emotional support foam. yeah. whatever. hate that gal

Hello Friend! I actually really love the Scott design, and as a Scott Boy, I am amused he was shown before the MC (Just kidding, obviously Scott is the MC!!)
I all actuality, this game seems so fun and I am excited to see how it goes in creations!!
-Jester M.
Welcome, welcome friend! Glad to have you here!
Thank you so much, I loved making his design. I actually do have every Cast member's stage 1 skins ready, and they have been ready for a while, so I'm glad I got to finally show off at least one! Stay tuned for the next ones, i suppose...
And of course Scott is the main character. Who else? Mr do no harm? who is he kidding?
This game IS cool!! I received this ask as i was making the code for some dialogue (that thing never ends, i swear). I'm very excited to show more of it very soon!!!
We're soon approaching the one month anniversary of this blog, and i did say i'd have the demo ready somewhere between two months after the launch.... and well i don't know how true that still is, but i'm crossing my fingers!
look at his face. hes so cutesies

What do you mean? this is not suspicious at all! Everybody clap for the grand rebranding of Remedium, welcome.... GOLDSMITH!
Indeed, after very careful consideration (panic thinking after realizing what day it is), we have decided that it fits more of the aesthetic of the game to replace Legundo with Scott Goldsmith.
After all, the man has poisoned an entire town, and as has said our lord and savior Owen, he is a monster. Now, Scott, on the other hand...
I'm sure we can all say that Scott was probably the only saint there ever was in that town. Truly a man of faith, he was. Not a drop of human blood on his tongue, and it has never but spoken the truth, just like a fae.
Here he is. Truly a bug when you lift up a rock, he is.
(I cannot believe I am showing off Scott's design before Legundo.) i mean what. who said that. of course we show scott's design before legundo. This is Goldsmith, after all, not remedium or something else dumb like that

OBVIOUSLY, every single member working on this project is gay as can be. And we are loud and proud about our identities!
My own journey with coming to terms with my queerness is so intertwined with MCYT as a whole that I will forever be grateful for what it did to me. Bringing to me creators who are proudly announcing who they are to the world, and to a little kid version of me who only needed to hear that they weren't alone in this world and that we are here, we are queer, we love and we exist, and that that is beautiful.
Now that THAT's out of the way and that we can move past it towards the silliness..
[Insert that meme about its pride month, you know what that means, but for Remedium]
Huh. Remedium sure does look different for pride month...
(Should I stop talking about the flight smp on a vampires smp fan video game blog...? Maybe. But I will not. catch me if u can!)
