Next Chapter Poll
Added 2023-12-09 23:20:07 +0000 UTCI'm at a point where I have outlines for a few stories and got to crack down on filling one out as the next chapter to follow Day in the Life... so why not let the people decide? We can follow one of two possible paths for Wacky Candy, or try something new with a TTRPG flavoured fantasy series.
Don't worry about splitting the vote between the two Wacky Candy chapters, if the fantasy comic gets less than 50% I'll go with the leading WC option.
Wacky Candy: Katie - Back at home, Katie's problems grow bigger and bigger as she struggles with her size and renewing her relationship with Brian. But maybe, finding a way to keep her juiced and mobile will be just what's needed to bring them closer. Primary focus on blueberry inflation, de-juicing, struggling with immobility.
Wacky Candy: Carrie - Carrie finds herself unexpectedly back in the purple suit and with a new ally in escaping and sabotaging the orbital fun factory, Cat. The company has been overrun by its own success, with two little staff to manage the growing production line. It would be a perfect opportunity to take over the company or its portal technology, if it weren't for Kasia, the buff berry assigned to shadow her. Narrative focus with a menagerie of weight gain sizes and candy transformations, and Carrie adapting to assistive devices to do her job - or just stay mobile enough to escape.
Fantasy inflation comic - working title "Is It Okay To Fatten The Mage In A Dungeon?" - The barbarian has spent her life perfecting herself as a vessel of steel, a cold ruthless killing machine -- and suddenly finds herself overwhelmed with feelings of care and warmth for her fellow magician when the latter is accidentally inflated to immobility. The magician is cured, albeit with some stubborn chub remaining, and the barbarian can't help but wonder if she can nudge the magician back to her larger size permanently. Of course, barbarian's schemes might go better if she hadn't dumped her Intelligence stat. Focus on gradual weight gain - both thin to immobile fat and buff to big strongfat - interspersed with other types of rapid expansion/de-expansion such as slime and berry. And a disaster lesbian who doesn't know how to admit her feelings, even to herself.

Guessing the order is Katie, Barbarian story and then Carrie.

2024-07-12 17:13:27 +0000 UTCI did most want to see Carrie adapt after whacky candy 2, but I can accept waiting and that it will happen soon. The katie continuation does sound interesting. As does the fantasy story
hypershock18
2023-12-19 17:14:47 +0000 UTCI plan to do all of these! I just couldn't decide what order.

2023-12-14 22:53:11 +0000 UTCI’m excited to see more of Katie after the last chapter made her much more sympathetic again, but I’m curious: so you plan to give all of these the full comic treatment eventually or are the runners-up going to be done as shorts and one-offs?
Adam McKinney Souza
2023-12-13 00:27:30 +0000 UTCYou'll get them all! I just couldn't decide which to do first
Opik Oort
2023-12-12 15:51:49 +0000 UTCthank you! :D
Opik Oort
2023-12-12 15:50:21 +0000 UTCHer story will still happen, just looks like it might be a while.
Opik Oort
2023-12-12 15:50:12 +0000 UTCTo the end of the month!
Opik Oort
2023-12-12 15:49:38 +0000 UTCHonestly it's hard to choose because everything you do end up incredible. I will be glad to see it anyway ! <3

2023-12-12 13:02:47 +0000 UTCWell this is disappointing, I was really looking forward to seeing Carrie's story continue.

Julian Reight
2023-12-11 15:14:34 +0000 UTCGod these all sound amazing. Can we please get all of them? I really, really want to see Carrie stuffed into the Whacky Candy suit again at her current size
Zachary Ryan
2023-12-11 14:47:41 +0000 UTCThey all sound good.... but whichever one gets me more Whitt (figuratively and literally) is the one I'll vote for!
Guybuddy1
2023-12-10 14:40:32 +0000 UTCEntertaining you yahoos is what keeps my home warm in the winter, so I do care :P but all of these are stories I really wanna tell, and it means a lot when anyone cares about my stories. My favourite comments for Panspermia were always the folks like "I came here for kink and stayed for the worldbuilding"
Opik Oort
2023-12-10 05:02:03 +0000 UTCOkay, then, look forward to seeing these stories get made soon!
hypershock18
2023-12-10 04:55:33 +0000 UTCyup!
Opik Oort
2023-12-10 04:54:16 +0000 UTCI'm guessing whatever wins the poll, you'll work on first and foremost. Whatever doesn't win, you'll work on at some future point.
hypershock18
2023-12-10 04:09:54 +0000 UTCThe great news is all three of these ideas sound fantastic! You can't go wrong. Your poll is going to lean toward a Wacky Candy story because it's familiar, beloved, etc. Fewer people will click on the new fantasy comic simply because we don't know what it is yet... but it might be our new favorite thing. We don't know anything! I loved Panspermia and The Promotion, and I loved coming back to Wacky Candy after those comics. If your intention is to do all 3 ideas eventually, start with the one that excites you as an artist and storyteller right now and don't worry about us yahoos in the comments.

2023-12-10 04:03:27 +0000 UTCGod, I want all three of these. But the Katie one seems to hottest.
Changed This For Privacy
2023-12-10 04:02:58 +0000 UTCEven if she wasn't the next story, I wouldn't leave her hanging for forever! I plan on doing all of these at some point
Opik Oort
2023-12-10 03:12:53 +0000 UTCI'm feeling both honestly! I love tabletop and wanna grab on the hype of the D&D movie and Baldur's Gate, but I also know that I left Wacky Candy hanging for a long while when I did Panspermia and people might not like a longer gap again. But Katie can definitely reflect some things I've been through recently. And I'm sure people want to see her happy - me included.
Opik Oort
2023-12-10 03:12:01 +0000 UTCI was honestly not expecting so much love for Brian! Or love for the reunion :P

2023-12-10 03:00:27 +0000 UTC"Why do I have to sign a waiver to buy Organic Blueberry juice?" "Umm.....well.....you know what, first gallon's on the house"
Chumlee99
2023-12-10 02:35:35 +0000 UTCI definitely want to see another Katie story
Julian Reight
2023-12-10 02:06:24 +0000 UTCMaybe they are selling her juice secretly so they can get enough funds to help support her and her new condition 🤔
SarcasticObserver1
2023-12-10 01:57:23 +0000 UTCAre you in the flow of Wacky Candy, or would new characters give you a creative kick? Personally, I'm invested in what happens in Katie's new normal. Her story is the most emotionally complex. Transformed against her will, spent a year as a villain "just following orders," escaped leaving others behind. Girl's got some stuff to work through.
Trembleuse
2023-12-10 01:30:28 +0000 UTCBoth Carries story and the fantasy inflation comics I really wanna support and see but I got into this universe cause of Katie and I wanna see where her story goes first please 🙏
SarcasticObserver1
2023-12-10 01:18:37 +0000 UTCBrian: How was grocery shopping today dear? Katie: Well.....*Turns on the local news to show the aftermath of her having an accidently juice incident at the store and now there's two dozen more blueberry ladies including the news woman*
Chumlee99
2023-12-10 01:15:51 +0000 UTCMan, would suck to see Katie's story arc going nowhere after years of waiting to see her story pick back up
debuwuuu
2023-12-10 01:14:23 +0000 UTCI just wanna see Katie being a mutated monster wifey
Smartie
2023-12-10 00:33:22 +0000 UTCEveryone gets collateral waistline damage with the barbarian's 8 INT plans!
Opik Oort
2023-12-10 00:30:36 +0000 UTCNo competition, everyone wants to see rekindled love with a fat blue chick.
MatadorTesla
2023-12-10 00:30:30 +0000 UTCHer final form includes being able to pull sections of herself out like human size pieces of candy corn
Chumlee99
2023-12-10 00:15:54 +0000 UTCWould love to see her again. Her tf was one of more unsual ones and her final form was never clearly seen. Would make sense that she stays in contact with Cat since they were friends before their Trip to the factory
Shibuyasake
2023-12-10 00:05:07 +0000 UTCGradual weight gain, buff weight gain, AND a disaster lesbian? I've got to vote for that one, as much as I want to see Carrie again!
Supercake Studio
2023-12-10 00:03:07 +0000 UTCI can try to find a spot for her in Carrie's story -- Cat has a secondary role, Candy might have some choice words for her!
Opik Oort
2023-12-10 00:00:46 +0000 UTCThe question is: will we Candy, the Candy Corn Girl again?
Shibuyasake
2023-12-09 23:50:47 +0000 UTCThe fantasy story intrigues me
Zachary M Rivera
2023-12-09 23:49:14 +0000 UTCGood, because slime is *woefully* under-represented!
Guy Face Thrace
2023-12-09 23:48:26 +0000 UTCIs it just whatever you'll do first and foremost and whatever doesn't win, you'll do eventually?
hypershock18
2023-12-09 23:43:22 +0000 UTCErica will have some involvement with Katie's but I still need to work on that part. All these stories will be done eventually!
Opik Oort
2023-12-09 23:41:46 +0000 UTCThe Erica side story sounds fun, slow transformations can be cruel, I love it
Shibuyasake
2023-12-09 23:37:11 +0000 UTCAlso the idea of the other three ladies wanting to help Katie but worried if they get exposed they’ll blimp up instantly and Katie helping Erica with her own transformation ie, the idea Erica never stopped transforming but she’s a lot slower compared Mads so Erica is further along but still able to hide it. That make sense?
Chumlee99
2023-12-09 23:35:42 +0000 UTCAs long as you get to all of them eventually I’m happy. Otherwise I say we riot 🔥🔪💣
CleverName
2023-12-09 23:35:06 +0000 UTCMaybe if Carrie not win, save it for later?
hypershock18
2023-12-09 23:34:43 +0000 UTCThe Katie story would drive things forward a bit on the surface side of things, but overall you're right, her chapter would be a more interpersonal one.
Opik Oort
2023-12-09 23:32:07 +0000 UTCCan already see the D&D possibilities for all the other members of the team
Chumlee99
2023-12-09 23:29:59 +0000 UTCA couple of adventures that grow closer and grow together hehe
Opik Oort
2023-12-09 23:26:36 +0000 UTCThey all sound really good but I feel like WC wise, the Carrie Option would drive the story more forward while the Katie Option seems more like something more suited for a shorter side comic like the Day in Life thats currently running
Shibuyasake
2023-12-09 23:26:34 +0000 UTCAs much as I adore the Wacky Candy universe stuff, it would be interesting to see a new story setup from you, especially with a Fantasy setting.
RaianMaru
2023-12-09 23:26:03 +0000 UTCThe Carrie story will have the most of that!
Opik Oort
2023-12-09 23:26:00 +0000 UTCI do hope Kasia gets a bigger role in Carrie’s chapter
Chumlee99
2023-12-09 23:25:55 +0000 UTCThey'll all be done in time!
Opik Oort
2023-12-09 23:25:31 +0000 UTCThey all sound amazing, that ain't fair. I am definitely here for Carrie though, she's gotten my favorite flavor of round
Guy Face Thrace
2023-12-09 23:23:44 +0000 UTCI’m ok with both wacky candy stories
Blazingfox77
2023-12-09 23:23:07 +0000 UTCMean person that I am, I'm most interested in involuntary weight gain to the point of shame and immobility.
Aaron Farkas
2023-12-09 23:23:03 +0000 UTCAll amazing ideas…but barbarian strongfat waifu material is calling!
