WHAT IS LOKA?
LOKA is a Choose Your Own Adventure-style story inspired by the fangames “Legend of Krystal,” featuring Krystal featuring Krystal in a world full of lizard folk. The idea is simple: you, the audience, get to decide what happens next by voting between two choices. The most voted path becomes the continuation of the story.

WHAT'S THE RULE?
There’s one true ending — the wholesome one.
I can even spoil it for you: Fox and Krystal reunite and finally get to live happily together.
As for the other endings? Well... definitely not as wholesome.

Your goal is to keep Krystal safe for as long as possible to reach that ending.
That means voting for the path that seems safest for her.
Assuming that's what you want.

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE WRONG CHOICE WINS?
It depends. Some choices aren’t immediately dangerous. Others definitely are.
I haven’t made the “right” path too obvious — sometimes it is, sometimes not.

If Krystal ends up in a bad situation, she’ll lose a piece of clothing — up to 6 in total.
That’s not the only way she can lose clothes though. Her path is dangerous no matter what, and doubt can have consequences:
If the vote is too close (between 34–65%), she loses a piece anyway (see that as her trying to struggle to get out of a situation).

You know why you subbed here, after all.

WHAT IF SHE ENDS UP NAKED AFTER LOOSING ALL HER CLOTHES?
If Krystal loses all her clothes, the only way to keep her safe is for at least 66% of voters to choose the safe options.

Midway through the story, there will be a checkpoint where it’ll be possible to re-craft her clothing - kinda - and get some extra “lives.”

But if she’s naked and less than 66% pick the safe option?
Well… it’s called Legend of Krystal for a reason. Let’s just say that’s Game Over.
No retries.

AREN’T YOU SUPPOSED TO DO WHOLESOME CONTENT ONLY?
I do! That’s exactly what I hope will happen with this story too!
But for a “choose your own adventure” format to actually have tension and suspense, there needs to be real stakes — and real danger for the main protagonist.

WHAT IF WE REACH THE TRUE ENDING?

• Our trademark wholesome, happy conclusion

• The meaning behind the "A" in LOKA is revealed

• And I’d honestly love to turn that ending into a short 2D animation with voice acting. Hope that'd be motivational enough.

HOW DO WE VOTE?
Voting happens via posts for the Café and Croissant tiers right after a new page is released.
Why not Baguette? Because this project is meant to give something exclusive to the Café tier, which I feel hasn’t gotten much love since alt versions were discontinued.

Croissant-tier backers will also get their own post to double their vote.

I hope you’ll manage to keep Krystal safe.
And if not… well, maybe that really was her destiny.

THE RULES (TL;DR)
- Keep Krystal safe to reach the true ending (if that's what you want)
- She loses clothes when danger hits (or votes are between 34% to 65%)
- Naked + wrong vote = Game Over
- Only one try — no retries
- Voting is exclusive to Café & Croissant tiers
