it's been a over a year since I've posted art on here but i drew a portrait of my PC rus (@losergames' chop shop) for class!!

[losergames]

thank you to everyone that applied to the Chop Shop beta testing -- there was a lot more than i was expecting so i will be going through all of them today!

i will hopefully be messaging people about it in the next few days, so please keep on eye out on discord or emails! thanks to all that applied, i'm sorry i won't be able to select everyone but i'm sure i will open apps again in the future! ❤️

Chop Shop is looking for Beta Readers!

This used to be done privately but as the projects grows, so does the workload and I am always in need of more eyes on the project to help me out. Ideally I'd like to put a group together before the next update, so we can familiarise ourselves with what my upcoming plans are for the project.

You will also need to be over 18 and have a discord account. More details can be found on the form. Applications will close midnight 13th of June '25 GMT.

If this is something you are interested in please apply here!

Thanks all! I will have an update on episode 05 soon!!!❤️

[losergames]

thank you for the tags pals!! @bloodlines-if, @thelonelyshore-if

last song: hollywood by shoreline mafia and YG

fav colour: green! like a pale forest green. also unfortunately the shade that everyone is painting their kitchens and bathrooms these days

currently reading: convenience store woman by Sayaka Murata

last movie: mission impossible: dead reckoning (sad it was not as good as fallout. also that one character death. REALLY? REALLY!!???)

last show: i am re-watching a lot lately... sex and the city, mindhunter, fargo season 1!!! now i'm thinking about what an interaction between carrie bradshaw and lorne malvo would look like, two psychopaths in their own ways

last obsession: MMM i've been really into rdr2 since playing it for the first time earlier this year, and then specifically john marston as a character. i cannot resist a man that 1) is an asshole 2) has long dark hair 😔 woe is me

i'll tag @milaswriting, @hpowellsmith, @vapolis, @allieebobo and anyone else that wants to! no pressure ❤️

a small update - 1st june '25

hi friends!

a quick one from me, episode 05 is at about 40k! i have been on demon time the past month trying to get some real good progress done lmao. i estimate another 10-15k to go, so that's not too bad...

this is not a promise of any kind but i do hope this ep will get released in the summer! i've been fleshing out episode 06's outline and setting up the file so that i can get started as quickly as possible when the time comes. i am going to be out of commission for the majority of august, so i'd really like new material to go back to.

i'm also thinking of offering early access to the demo when new episodes come out over on ko-fi? not sure if people would be into that but if you are give me a shout or let me know your thoughts!

thanks pals, see you soon <3

What's the difference between beta and alpha? i noticed the alpha word count is included on the itch page. Also how do you decide what the numbers are for each version? Lol, sorry if that is a lot, I am trying to get into being a game dev but not sure what these really mean

hello! no worries at all, i can see how it may be confusing.

honestly i think each developer defines these things a little differently so it's really up to you.

as for how i am using them, the alpha version of the game is for my eyes only! it's the file i work in and doesn't get shared with anyone else. the beta has the extra content that isn't available yet. this is the version i use for playtesting and the one i share with beta readers. then the public version is last on pipeline, with the new shiny update and what has been edited etc :)

as for the version numbers i see them as this: game.update.patch. so right now chop shop is on 1.2.3; there's been 2 updates and 3 patches so far. 'update' is for when i add a chapter and 'patch' is for minor things like fixing mistakes, bugs etc. 'game' is reserved for if i do a major overhaul of the entire game (which i doubt will ever happen until the whole thing is completely done)

i hope that makes a little sense. good luck with your game dev journey!

Pride Month

For Pride Month in June, Interact-IF is bringing back one of its beloved events, spotlighting queer (LGBTQ+) authors and their interactive fiction projects (here’s the 2021 series).

Throughout this month, we hope to celebrate the massive queer representation these stories and games help provide, as well as the awesome IFs created by and for the queer community.

We will feature a masterlist of interaction fiction written by queer authors, and select a couple to interview about their experiences and creative process! The interview will be done fully via a text Q&A format.

If you wish to be featured (whether in the masterlist or the extended interview, which will be done fully through a text Q&A format), do fill out this google form. Or, if you prefer, you could drop me, @allieebobo a message or an email at allieebobo@gmail.com with the following information: 

Name

Background/About you

Game(s)/Projects

A link to the game(s)/IF/intro post

A short blurb/description of the game(s)

Genre/Tags

(Optional) If your writing or experience has been shaped by your identity in any way, feel free to share more here as well :) 

Contact information (or how you’d like me to reply/contact you)

Do drop me a DM if you have any questions! Note that interactive fiction includes those written in ren’py and twine as well, not just Choicescript.

Interact-IF mods will contact selected authors by email/DM by the end of the month with a full set of questions that you can type out replies to, and send back to me via email. I’ll try to feature everyone who’s interested, but will discuss further if for whatever reason I am unable to feature everyone who reached out. 

P.S. If you know any authors who you’d wish to see featured, feel free to share this post with them or @ them when reblogging :)
