Ladies and Gentlemen - Presenting Act One!

TL;DR - THE DOWNLOAD

New features:

  • Five possible endings
  • Complete overhaul of the text - should be more engaging and easier to understand
  • 16,000 words and 18 choices to make.
Please enjoy and if you find any bugs, including spelling mistakes or things you don't understand - report them!


A lot of hard work went into this, I'm very sorry it's a day late but 0.07 had a bug or two I needed to iron out. 0.07a is here, so enjoy it! Comment and share everywhere, we'd really appreciate it!

Not long now!

Well folks, Act 1 of Magical Schoolgirl Love Tale is nearly complete. I need to add literally just a few more lines of story, then throw out version 0.07 to you guys! Release time should be sometime tomorrow, hold onto your hats!

Still with us?

Here's a nice quick status update for what's up with 0.07 now. I handed the work I'd been doing with RenPy back over to Barnox, so he can overhaul all the story to make it far more coherent, and generally give a better first impression than the last versions did. We want people to be captivated like they would be by a great book, and feedback we've received suggests that we're not getting that in our first draft - but that's exactly the kind of advice we need, and you should be giving us!

Absolutely no idea when the next version is coming, but drop us every complaint you have until then.

Version 0.06 is up for download!

You can actually finish the story now! In the same way a half made platformer will kill you when the content runs out. There is only one ending achievable, but over 12,000 words of story to read along the way!

This is pretty much all of Act 1 first draft, excluding the individual character paths. It's taken a while, but it's really coming together!

Download Magical Schoolgirl Love Tale v0.06 here.

Don't forget to give us that precious precious feedback - we need it!

We're not dead!

You thought we were, didn't you! You pessimists! How could you give up on us like that!?

All right, check-list:

  • Words are now at about 10,000, sadly that's only about 800 more than 0.05a.
  • Next musical piece is ready to produce, provided I can remember it until then.
  • Art for a new character is nearly done, I just need to make her expressions.
  • The introduction has been reworked to make it far more interesting that it was.
Version 0.06 will be released as soon as I code up to the next major plot point. Let's call it next week again, like I did last time.

Don't give up hope! It's far too early to die yet!

Version 0.05a is up for download!


We now have a public demo! Version 0.05a can be found here.

This is approximately half of the first act, and what we have here is still up for heavy revision. All sprites are placeholders and programmer art, and it should be expected that there may be bugs and/or typing errors. Please report anything you find and give us as much feedback as possible - we need it!
