As fresh starts go, this is a little more extreme.

You intended to stow away on a merchant vessel bound for the New World – instead, you ended up in the hold of a pirate galley. With no other option, you agree to join the crew of The Golden Harp as they search the seas for the lost riches of Lisboa.

Along the way, you must contend with deadly creatures, rival captains, and the threat of capture by the Royal Navy. And through it all, you get the distinct impression that your quarry is not at all what it seems…

A fully customisable MC, from gender to appearance to personality.

Develop relationships with male, female, and non-binary characters.

Pursue ten possible romance routes (seven single routes and three poly routes)

Note: this game and blog will be strictly 18+ - you have been warned!

surprise update! (30/3/2022)

#tgh update #the golden harp #the golden harp update

Is this still in development? I see where it was updated over a year ago. I couldn't find anymore updates. I'm just wondering.

Yes and yes - family/work/technical stuff, there was a post about it here!

whatever i literally dont care 😎 <- cares so much that it feels like my organs are tearing themselves apart in my chest

How would the ROs respond to MC asking them if they would still love them as a worm? Set in modern world.

Okay, I gotta know before I go on a ho spree. Are there consequences to flirting with multiple people? Also! How are the poly routs going to be handled? Is it like a flirt with the two and then all three mutually agreeing to get into a relationship? Or flirt with two, get with one, and then decide to add the third?

I loved the update, babes! I hope you're doing well! 💙🌻😊

thank you! ok i'm putting this under the cut for length and for changeability <3

MC gets up in the night for some reason and when they come back to bed, they give the snoozing ROs a lil smooch on the forehead b/c they think the RO is asleep (but they aren’t). How do the ROs react?

Hi! If its alright could we have some facts about Captain Derya Sadak ? If its not too spoilery or too much asking ?

hmmm....potentially a little spoilery but i can share a little "newspaper" snippet that a character in-universe may have read:

empire ships targeted! admiralty called for emergency meetings following the recent attack on the hyperion, bound for the new world, the admiralty have been called to london to face the wrath of harley in london. the ottoman empire has denied responsibility for the attack, but survivors report an ottoman captain who laughed as the crew were routed from the ship.

Hello, I wanted to ask you a question, which RO/s is/are a slow-burn?

depends? they all have their own flavours - i would say that emotionally, lorcan will resist opening up to the mc for a long time; derya would also be more cautious but they’re not necessarily against a relationship; grace and anthony have a lot of pining; mc isn’t able to physically meet the other. robin, gray and lorelei are a little more “straightforward”, but they have their own particular factors which will become clear.

How do the ROs react to having a spicy dream about the MC before they’re together? Crushing stage.

ROs reactions to MC making bedroom eyes at them from across a room full of other people?

lorcan: you’re leaving the room right tf now, it’s not subtle

robin: smiles but ultimately they have a reputation to maintain - they can’t afford to not care in the way that lorcan can

grace: would be flustered, definitely distracted from whatever conversation she’s having - but ultimately she would stay put, she wants to maintain her reputation, she’s put a lot of effort into building it

lorelei: wouldn’t tend to be in a crowded environment (the body heat in the room would be overwhelming, and they don’t want to reveal themself); but hypothetically it would be a very similar response to lorcan

anthony: critical failure, leaves independently (wouldn’t be averse to mc following after him)

derya: would be ultimately amused - enjoys the attention but doesn't necessarily rush themselves. if their partner really wants them, they're willing to wait.

the other: a little bit of a different scenario, but if mc’s thoughts were to wander among other people, they would absolutely enable it - literally present an entire scene to distract mc, so cinematic that it seems almost real

How would the ROs react to a fake-out make-out situation?

lorcan: in his element, definitely plays up to the scenario but would be a little dismissive afterwards to maintain boundaries (depending on what stage this happens in, he may act a little more defensively or in a hostile manner - he’s actively trying to avoid getting feelings for someone)

robin: very sensitive, checks in with mc to make sure they’re alright with it - very gentle, very romantic, and they’re very gentle with mc afterwards - would be the most likely to want to talk to mc about it afterwards.

gray: it’s very awkward and they’d only accept if there was genuinely no other option. their lips are soft but that’s about it - very firm kiss, hands grasping mc’s clothes, as quick as possible. would definitely avoid mc afterwards - if they’re in a crushing situation, they might be more likely to write mc a note apologising for their actions.

grace: very stiff and wooden at first, sinks into the moment after a few seconds; very flushed afterwards, obviously stares at mc throughout the rest of the “day”, to the point where she will miss entire conversations.

lorelei: gets very into it, tongue and teeth, and will be very put-out at the thought of having to continue the rest of the “mission”

anthony: gentle, sensual, enjoys the moment - but then is immediately awkward afterwards.

derya: wouldn’t do it - they’d kind of position themselves to insinuate that it’s happening? but they wouldn’t want to engage with something like this. they’re always very intentional when romancing someone, and they wouldn’t want their probable first kiss with someone to be under false pretences.

character who is sun-coded but not in the traditional ray-of-sunshine way. character who is sun-coded in the sense that they burn hot and bright and powerful, that they're a raging fury of fire and passion, and that maybe, just maybe, they are destroying themselves as they do so.
