R's Character Snippet: What If The Crown And R Were Classmates

Hey all, hope your week's going well!!

I'm a bit late with this but that's because I'm full steam ahead on CH11 at the moment. Also still need to post the A and D previews, hope I'll get around to doing that sometime this week!!

This snippet was fun to write, though, and quite a bit longer than the usual character snippet since it's ~1k words long. Also, I can't even really call it ...

Weekly Progress Update + CH11 Release Dates [09/JUL]

Hellooo, hope your summer is going well so far 🌻

It's been a while since I gave a solid update but I wanted to wait until I was absolutely sure I could finally announce the CH11 release dates.

I'm at 62k words at the moment, having finished A's route and filling in the last scenes for D's route as well. The drafts for each LI route will be finished within the wee...

Bonus romantic snippet: A/R

Hey all, hope your week has been good so far!!

Here's the free A/R bonus snippet, as promised. It took me a while to decide on the exact scenario since there were so many options my brain got a little overloaded.

In the end, I decided on a post-game scene, after the story in AToC has ended (and the Empire hasn't burned down lol). It assumes A and R didn't really have the ti...

D's Character Snippet: Chapter Ten

Heyaaa, hope you had a great week!!

With this snippet we've finished all the CH10 POV scenes, and D's is a very cute preview for CH11 in my opinion.

Well, cute to me. Probably anxiety-inducing for the rest of you haha.

The file also already includes the A/R bonus snippet that I'm making a separate post for, mainly for tier 1 patrons who only have access to the tier 1 ...

R's Romantic Snippet: On a "Date"

"Date" because this isn't technically a romantic date, but the scenario was sooo cute I couldn't help but write it. Also from R's POV, because it was even cuter that way.

It's also relatively close to the game's canon timeline, I'd say it takes place very shortly after the events of the game so R and the Crown are still in that honeymoon phase of their relationship. And ...

D's Character Q&A, Part II

Hey all! There was no voting for Q&A this month since D was the only left haha. If you haven't read Part I of their Q&A yet, you can find it here.

Bit late this week since I'm busy writing, so tier 3 will get the romantic snippet tomorrow instead. Tier 2+ will also get the character snipp...

X's Character Snippet: Chapter Ten

Hey everyone, hope your week has started off well!!

Slight delay on this one as I keep working on CH11, but it's a very big one for X. In terms of emotional damage, that is. Which is why I should also warn you: unless you have caught up with X's route up to and including CH10, this will have MASSIVE SPOILERS for their romance route.

Even if you don't care about spoi...

Development Sneak Peek: Crowns of Old, Part IV

As promised, the delayed dev sneak peek!! I've started releasing the old posts in this series in chronological order on the Tumblr blog, but it'll be months before I release this one and the previous one. Mostly I just wanted to have it archived neatly somewhere haha.

Weekly Progress Update [11/JUN]

Hey all, hope June has gone well for you!!

I was supposed to post development sneak peeks for tier 2+ patrons this past week, but I've had a bit of an impromptu break. A little mini-vacation to rest my mind before overworking myself, haha. The weather was really hot and sunny, so I spent most of my time enjoying it, which means I'll be posting the dev sneak peek this coming Tuesday instea...

R's Character Snippet: CH10 High Romance Scene

Heyyy!!

A day late with this, but I think it'll be worth the bit of delay. It's R's POV on the romance scene in CH10, specifically the high romance variant. I was considering writing the low romance variant as well, but I ran out of time!! Maybe I'll add it at a later date.

Schedule update

Just wanted to let you guys know that the bonus planned A/R snippet will be released in June instead of May, and the A/X one will be released in July instead of June!! I'm really in the thick of writing CH11 and can barely keep up with my Patreon schedule as is, so I haven't been able to find the time to work on either one yet.

I'll still do my best to post R's tier 2 snippet tomorrow, wh...

D's Romantic Snippet: On a Date

Hiya, sorry for the late upload!!

I was supposed to write a proper date for this prompt, but D whispered in my ear about how a sparring scene would be way sexier, so that's what ended up happening haha. It can kind of be counted as a date?

Here's the link!! The file ...

A's Character Snippet: CH10 Scene & New UI

Hey all, hope your week has started well!! ✨

I'm here with A's snippet as promised, AND I've updated the bonus content file with the new theme that I've been working on!!

I got some feedback from tier 2+ patrons after releasing it for the main game last week, so for those who have already seen it, I tweaked the background color for the dark mode since I was told the white-on-black...

Weekly Progress Update [14/MAY]

Firstly, happy mother's day to all the moms 💖

It'll be a short update this week, but I'll post an extra long preview for R's route to make up for it!! I've taken a little break this weekend since the weather warmed up for the first time this year and I wanted to take a rest to enjoy the sun, so I'll be posting A's character snippet tomorrow.

Development Sneak Peek: New UI!

Hey all, hope May has started well for you!!

I mentioned this on Tumblr yesterday, but I've been working on a new UI for AToC for the past week!! It's got the Settings API that allows users to edit fonts, font size and switch between light mode and dark mode. It also has a responsive mobile layout so you can comfortably play the game in portrait mode now.

There are still some parts ...

Weekly Progress Report [30/APR]

Hey everyone, it's the last day of April!! Hope your week (and your month) is ending on a high note.

It's been a minute since the last progress report, but I'm more or less satisfied with where we're at so far. The word count came in at ~35k words, so about 10k short of my goal for April, but I think that can be rectified easily in May. I took a 1-week break from writing ...

A's Character Snippet: Chapter Eight

Heyyy, hope you're all having a great weekend!!

Damn I put out a lot of snippets back to back it feels like. It was basically 3 in the span of a week haha. And with this we finished all the POV scenes for CH8! The next two months will be for CH10 👀

A's character snippet was fun to write, I got to add a little bit more detail about their backstory, as well as the first inkling of ...

Bonus Romantic Snippet: D/X

Hey everyone, hope your week is going well!!

Based on the poll results from last time, X/D won out with a majority wanting to read it from D's POV as well, so that's what I wrote for this month.

I had so much fun with this snippet and it flowed so easily (literally wrote it in like, 2 hours) that I could just feel my brain flooding with gratitude-serotonin for bein...

X's Romantic Snippet: On a Date

Sorry for the late upload, I was celebrating my mom's 60th birthday over the weekend with my family ✨

This one was really cute to write, it's an established relationship between the Crown and X but still in the courtship phase of things. Thinking about where the Crown and X's relationship is currently at in canon and comparing it to this snippet is kinda funny, the vibes couldn't be mor...

Weekly Progress Update [4/APR]

A day late on this, woops!! Hope everyone had a good start on their week tho ✨

I'm happy to say I surpassed my 15k words goal for March and made it to 18k words by the time of writing this post. My goal for April will be 25k words, so hopefully by the end of it I will have finished all the LI route opening scenes and be up to ~45k words for the chapter!!
