Will this be commercial or not?

Looks nice would be sad if it is a commercial game though.

Considering that this is my fulltime job, it would be pretty sad if it weren't. I don't want to freeze to death!

I swear that it is a good game, worth every penny of purchase.

Lemuel, who edited it and was riveted by its story.

Do you have any estimate on when the game will be released? Also, will the main character be able to end up with any of Princess Cassidy's suitors? If not that's fine, I'll still totally buy the game, I'm just curious.

I'm currently guessing February, by the rate it's taking to get all the CGs done. The plot is written and has gone through at least one round of testing and all the features are in, I'm largely spinning my wheels and doing polish stuff waiting for the art to be complete.

For Exciting Reveal reasons, I can't give any specifics at this point about who does and doesn't have endings. It's a safe guess that Maddie can end up with at least one of Cassidy's suitors. It's also a safe guess that given the 'intrigue' label there's going to be some plot twists I'm not telling you yet....

Oh, if it's released by February then I will cry tears of joy because that is my 21st birthday.

I love all the details of this game, and the art. The art. And maybe I'm a sap, but I want to romance Oscar XD

Just a reminder to torment you that this game is still getting there slowly. Hopefully in about five weeks we can do a public beta release. It will likely be a very short beta because this is a pure visual novel so it doesn't need as much hammering, just a few people getting the early discount purchase to run through and make sure I don't accidentally package a ball of angry bees instead of the game.

I've put up a placeholder Royal Trap webpage, not much there yet that you haven't seen before.

I'm so angsty right now. I'd totally pay you in full to play the incomplete art game now. Damn you and your hype abilities!

this definitely sounds interesting. gaston reminds me a lot of beauty and the beast gaston.
but i like nazagi the best. he seems cool! so does callum actually...hmm
well good luck with this~~

Princess Cassidy's picture is missing?

That was just one of the imageshack servers being laggy temporarily.

I've uploaded a higher-quality version of the opening video, so the music is less fuzzy now.

Still waiting on about 3.5 CGs... so close and yet so far...

almost there!!
so how long is the game going to be roughly?

I'm not very good at giving time estimates. The total game script comes to about 115K words, so longer than either Date Warp or Fatal Hearts by that metric.

There are four major paths (plus a couple of harder-to-define bits) and the general story progress is prologue+four chapters of common route, followed by three chapters+epilogue of whichever route you got.

Wait, how are you waiting on 1/2 a CG?! That's like having 2.5 kids.

Well, there IS one that's at least half-completed at the moment, but I was actually more thinking about how to count things when you have graphics with multiple layers and variations atop the same base.
