Hi Patrons!

We're going to be jumping into production for our next game, Elsewhere, around the start of 2022, and we'd love to get your input on a few things before we head into it!

Elsewhere will be a dark-fantasy amare visual novel, where you play as a human who has been taken to the Faerie world of Elsewhere to act as a Champion in a deadly contest amongst the Fae.

MC has a set job before the events of the story as a bartender and has been at their job for at least a couple of years, hence the poll options beginning at 22.

Our question for today is, which age would you prefer MC to be?

A couple of points to consider:

- Many of the LI's are Fae or similar, and so their ages may range all the way into the hundreds.

- The game will be rated 18+ and contain sexual content.

Feel free to leave any further thoughts in the comments!

I feel like mid-late 20, early 30s MCs deserve more rep in all forms of interactive fiction. It makes romancing a supernatural that is centuries older feel less predatory.

Shuris

I second this.

Tessa Grissom

Exciting! A lot of fantasy media skews younger so I'd be very happy with an older protagonist.

I went for 25. I like to have an MC who is a "real adult" but still is young enough to need to figure out their live (+ I am 25 so... 😁)

Jack Newbill

Interesting! Will there be yuri romance options?

Krissy

I'm in complete agreement!

At the moment we have 3 male, 3 female, and 2 nb romance options planned, and you will have the option to play as a male, female, or nb MC.

MC really doesn't feel like an adult-adult, tbh. They've got a real babe-in-the-woods feel that I don't feel can be chalked up to being so sheltered. I'd mark them as being as young as 18 I'd that were an option.

The poll is asking which age you'd like to see MC in our next game. The MC in A6 is 21-22 years old.

... don't reply to things at three in the morning folks. =P
