Hey all!! The results of the poll were super close but Hazire won fair and square by a single vote. It's a much longer snippet than I usually write, bordering 2k words, but I really wanted to do their snippet justice especially as this is a scene that you won't be seeing in the main game.
The theme is their first meeting ✨ Naturally, huge story spoilers ahead, so be cautious reading it if you aren't up to date!
I've also added more customization

Hey all!!
We're kind of in an odd in-between week in terms of my schedule. I use the weeks of the month to determine posting order starting from the 1st week of the month, but this week is kind of awkwardly split between May and June so I decided to use this as another opportunity for bonus content for all patrons ✨
This means the schedule for June will start properly next week, but for this week—specifically this Saturday—I'd like to release a bonus snippet for all ...

Hi everyone, it's been a while since the last progress update!! Hope you've all been well!
As a reminder, if you're a new patron and you pledged in the past week, since June is literally right around the corner, you'll be charged again on the 1st! Let me know if you'd like a refund for May so you're not unfairly double charged!!
I'm happy to say that I did manage another 4k words since I last updated you, but that was 2 weeks ago as my thesis has taken priority fo...

Hey gang, hope your week has gone well and your weekend is even better!
As scheduled, D's character snippet has officially been released ✨
It's quite backstory heavy, with mild spoilers for D's Chapter 7 scenes as well, so be careful of that while you read! I think slow burn fans will definitely appreciate this snippet though haha.
I also added a minor change to the in-game save function where you no longer have a pop-up asking you to name your save:...

Hey gang! The voting for the poll came in, and once again 50% of you voted for X - although R was a very close runner-up this time.
There were also a LOT of questions sent in this time that will be answered for this Q&A, as well as ones I have saved for the other LIs in their future Q&As (mainly R and A) ✨
Onto X's Q&A!

Hey all, it's been one hell of a week. Hope you've all managed!
I managed to get a bit of writing done this week, though not as much as I would've liked as I'm in the ~Methodology~ part of my thesis and currently in the collecting and analyzing data phase. It's going to be a long few weeks ahead of me lol.
Even so, I did manage to add another +4k words to the draft this week, to a total of 19k words!
However. I went b...

Hi gang, hope you've had a wonderful week!
The first character snippet of the month is here - technically a bit late, since it's already Sunday in my timezone haha. Just pretend you do not see it 🙈
A's snippet was fun to work on but also decidedly darker in theme than the other ones; it was an interesting contrast considering their romance is more of a slow burn, and it really shows in their internal monologue for this snippet! Hope you won't be too disappointed that i...

Hey all, happy Mother's Day!! ✨
This progress report will be a short one for this week. I've started working on the middle part of CH9 with all the Juicy Politics that's part of it, though I've also been refining and editing the opening scene a bit to tighten it up for later.
Those of you who read the Dev Sneak Peek from this week got some insight about the structure of the Crown's Imperial Court: it'll come into big play in CH9 and all the other chapters ...

Hi everyone, hope your week is going well!
There'll be minor spoilers due to small excerpts from the chapter today, as I have finally written enough to start posting the previews! They'll be mostly dialogue, no plot or character spoilers, but if you're super sensitive about that sort of thing I'd take care not to read the screenshots near the top of this post!
It's a very, very, VERY long post today because I literally just can't contain myself when I'm writing about worldbuilding...

Hey all, hope you had a great week!
It's finally May and a few people have newly pledged in the past few days, so I'd like to start off by pointing out that my Patreon processing is an up front charge, which renews on the first of every month! If you ended up getting double charged because you signed up in the past couple of days or earlier today, send me a message and I'd be happy to give you a refund!
Now, onto the actual progress update: ...

Hey gang, hope you had a nice weekend!
There won't be much to report on for this week's progress update. I've made it to 6.5k words so I'm going to readjust my previous goal for April and set it at 10k instead! It'll be a challenge to see if I can make it, since my overall goal for Chapter Nine is 40k, which would mean that I'll be 25% of the way through with the draft after only 3 weeks!
No promises though lol
As far as the...

Hey everyone, hope you've had a great week!
The second character snippet of the month is a week early because I want to fully focus on writing AToC next week, aside from uni coursework. You'll still have the weekly updates tomorrow and next Sunday, but otherwise the Patreon will be rather quiet until May haha.
Without further ado, here is the link of the second character sni...

Heya gang, hope all the holidays are going well for those celebrating, and for those who aren't, hope you had a great week regardless!
To get right into the thick of it, I started writing the opening scene for Chapter Nine this week, and almost finished 1 of the 2 major branching variants. My wordcount for this week was 3.2k, almost halfway to 7k, and with 2 weeks left for April I think I can safely say that I'll likely surpass it for this month! <...

Hey all! The voting for the poll came in, and a whopping 50% of you voted for D! There were also a few questions sent in that will be answered for this Q&A as well - one specific submission only wrote down questions for A so I'll save that for when it's A's turn ✨
Also a general note: this Character Q&A is posted a week earlier than usually scheduled because I'm planning on releasing X's character snippet next weekend and use the last week of April to focus on university cours...

Hey everyone, hope you could end the week on a good note!
This is my first progress update on my Patreon and I'm super excited about it, though most of it will be related to planning and coding. Nothing particularly thrilling or juicy yet I'm afraid!
As those of you who have seen my Development Sneak Peak earlier in the week may have already seen, this week I've been busy with planning the structure of Chapter 9 and sorting out the coding for the big opening scene! Chapter 8 ended...

Hi everyone, hope your week is going well!
This is the first Dev Sneak Peek I'm posting, so I want to start it off by cautioning that there will be mild spoilers for future chapters in these posts - mainly in terms of coding, future characters, and lore. If you're a person who absolutely hates spoilers, though, proceed with caution!

To kick it off, my development focus for this week is the opening scene for Chapter Nine whic...

I've already posted about this on the AToC Tumblr blog, but the launch of this Patreon has gone so well and completely surpassed my expectations, so to thank you all for your support, I wanted to add a little extra to show my appreciation!

You can expect it to be posted this Saturday: I'll also make a post annou...

To celebrate the launch of my Patreon, I'm posting the first character snippet for the month early instead of a weekly progress report! As described in the tiers, through these posts you will get access to a separate html game file on itch io where you can "play" through the character snippets with your own Crown!
