Bastard: An Interactive Fiction Story
(Now Mobile Friendly!)
You are the bastard Heir to the Kingdom of Arma. A war with the Realm of Night-Kin is just over the horizon, tensions have never been higher. Your father, his Majesty the King, has called you forth to the capital. The letter which was delivered by a small squad of royal guard had emphasized urgency.

So far I like it! I did find a small typo though. When we meet Percyvell, I am referred to as he even though I chose female.
I am unable to get past the first passage of chapter 1. It's unscrollable.
Or it stops there?
Are you trying to play on mobile by chance?
nope, I use it on pc. tried three browsers.
And is it still doing this after my mobile patch?
After too long searching, Itch has it's OWN scrollbar that can be added. Should be fixed now lmao
Bug: the decision to hate or understand mom’s decision to keep a secret results in a NaN value for optimist-pessimist (either choice).
Thank you for the bug alert! I accidentally left an extra t, should be good when I update the game for mobile!
Using mobile seems to not produce full screen. I can't get past prologue because of this
I'll work on a patch for that tonight, if it is a simple fix it'll be up tomorrow if not i'll post an eta! Thank you for the heads up!
I'm intrigued by what you've shared so far and am looking forward to your updates!
I wanted to share Idrelle Games' (the author of Wayfarer) Tumblr page. There are a lot of tutorials there that helped me immensely while learning Twine. I don't see anything wrong with your work, but I thought you might find it useful. 😊
Good luck!
Thank you immensely! I have played their game a bit but didn't realize they had a tumblr with reference info for twine. I've been grinding the old 2014-2018 forums for SugarCube. I'll hopefully have Chapter 1 released before college picks up in September so look forward to it!
Do you have other resources for learning twine? I've been trying to gather as much as I can. I know next to nothing about coding so this is hard 😭
There's an error in the letter from the King at the beginning. If you choose to play as a female, it still calls you his "son," though it does correctly refer to you as "princess" in the next sentence.
Also, there's some weird grammar in the character description if you have a smooth face: "With a head of long hair, paired with smooth."
Thank you for the heads up, ill be sure to patch this out!
A bit too early to judge but it's pretty good so far!
Thank you so much! I'm currently working on an ease of use patch to add in the ability to see character stats, romance options, etc. Hopefully it'll be out later today!
