Escape From the Factory, beta demo, MAC

Same as PC, but for Mac!

Update: We were made aware of a game-breaking bug once more in Raven's interview room, making me wonder if the Raven even wants you to progress given how many times a random glitch stopped the game in its tracks there. It has been resolved and the full demo should be available now.

Escape From the Factory - Beta demo, PC

This is it! I spent so many hours playtesting this, but I finally got to the end and nothing broke intensely on me... anymore! As always any feedback and such would be massively appreciated, there are a few areas that need polishing like the end but it's essentially mechanically done and ready to go.

Iron Pen over, resume normal activities

Just as a heads-up, the Iron Pen for May/June is over, and we're moving on to the cafe queue along with other work. Only difference is that for the next few weeks I'll be doing 10k instead of 5k in order to finish off a few things since I have gotten sick with something. Also instead of focusing on book editing like planned I'll be doing game dev stuff instead, both for TTP and my own solo stuff.

What's this? A comic poll?

I find that even when I can't work due to illness I like to keep active, and with support for the comics and the patreon in general rising (hooray!) I wanted to throw this out there. I've been planning on wrangling another artist for another webcomic, question is what topic should we go with next? As much as I would love to more than one it would behoove me to go slow at this point in my expansion efforts. Vote below!

Other suggests will be looked at in comments.

It's that time again! We're doing the poll for June, and since its pride month I thought we'd do a few things that relate to it.

End of Month report, May 2024

It's the end of May already, and as we move to the summer months we have a lot going on. With the game demo going strong we're continuing to move forward with it. With the new Iron Pen going strong right now the queue is dutifully being cleared and still hoping for a mid-June finishing date. That means that where will only be a few weeks from the end of that to the next one in July, but it needs to be done in order to get things back on the schedule.

We finally see the brains behind the operation, or are we?  Argos seems nice enough at least, and having a super powerful AI managing system functions is probably a boon.
