I have included a discord link to the brand new server so we can actually get this shit rolling.

In the google doc.

hopefully I can get permission to advertise in actual discord and other stuff, and this is roundabout enough for the time being.

After looking at the roster, I think I'm the only synthetic character. It'd be cool if I had my OOC/dchat/Ritona side when people don't see me and the protagonist would play off from that.

Or other cynthetic stuff that I haven't remembered because of the Gen1's taking over.

Or just do a minigame of where's Synthia's body, and you're just dragging a head along while you place cynthia's head in weird locations, or just have Cynthia as some form of inventory item where you can just ask her about useless advise or help since y'know, she's just a head.

We now have a poll so we can choose out of so many inclined people for the spot to be in the main character's dating choice!

please help us and fill up the poll.

Also, we are still looking for people to help us to get this dream happening, so please?

“Here is the wild Homo Sapien hunting its prey. The humanoids are pack hunters, using their shoddy armor as a pitiful defense against the towering Insecta. The human is quickly downed by the Insecta’s powerful slash. But, sheer numbers of humanoids rampage the abuser and Insecta is eventually burned to death, beaten, and dismembered.”

That's a nice idea and is basically what does the Tiger Dojo on the Fate/Stay Night VN, take look of it, since is a great idea

Alright, it seems like people want to get involved and somehow not know how so let me just write it as a comment here too.

Firstly, the general thing is if you want to help just PM goliath, he is managing the people.

If not, you can join the discord group, which the link is in the google doc to see what's going on and it will be way easier to contact us that way.

We'd appreciate help of all kind, writers, sprite/artist, making meme music or helping out getting resources from the game or other places.

For anyone concerned about the progress of this project, currently the only thing stopping us from progressing forward is:
A. Voting to finish for the main characters.
B. A select few static events to be decided upon by the development team. i.e. What the Prologue will ultimately be.

After this is done, it'll be much easier to notice some serious headway being made.

OK, we moved the poll to a different one so you guys can vote on whoever the fuck you want because apparently it's too outdated or something, you guys will have to vote again but who cares right, vote please.
