About the Bad Endings + Progress Report! (Patreon)

Hello, friends!

Since many of you have been asking me lately, let's have a short explanation about how the "Bad" Endings will work in the game (and why I am using quotation marks), and then let's have a scheduled progress update for already exceedingly lovely Release 3!

Let's keep it simple in points:

Yes, there will be bad endings in the game. They will be fairly rare, however.

There will be repeated and ample warnings before they will happen. These warnings won't be breaking the fourth wall; they will be incorporated into the game properly. And there will be a second protective layer against them: our brave MC's skills. Occasionally, you will be able to use them to get out of an otherwise game-ending scenario. So be wary about what you learn in the game!

Many, if not most of them, will be obviously particularly spicy in nature. See the picture above!

Most of them will be made in a manner that you won't feel bad about. I always wanted Star Periphery to be a pleasant, comfortable game, and the endings are no different. They will mean the game is over, but I hope they will also evoke that classical "god, I wish that were me" feeling.

However, that does not mean they will be somehow mild or even forcibly sweet; you don't need to worry about that. Choices will have their consequences!

tl;dr - Bad endings yes, mostly spicy, not too serious, no really unpleasant themes, all according to the game's setting and kinks.

And since we started spicy, let's keep it that way as we look at our progress update!
