hey....you're probably wondering what i've been doing (or not!). so i wanted to share about it, since i've made significant progress.

i wanna preface that my strongest trait is prob a form of 'delusion'. i think i can do anything if i try hard enough (within reason). only person that can stop me is me.

professionally, i work in the game industry in tech-adjacent management so i know a thing or two about games (just a bit lol!). outside of work, i LOVE LOVE otome (prefer indie otome though) and romance visual novels. and even more than that, i love games where i can be a woman and are centered on a woman.

so of course, i decided to make a little voodoo boys / bayou crew indie visual novel game in my free time.

let's get this out of the way, no ai is used in this game, its written, directed, designed, programmed and developed by me. all the art, code, music, everything is human-made.

the only routes (the LI's) are Baron and Leon +secret li. No, I will not make any other characters into routes, I have no interest in writing their routes (but they will have appearances in the game). This story also hard focuses on the FMC (you), she has some established traits, she has a story (but she starts as a normal woman with a normal job, where she ends up..is a bit up you). The game is quite literally called Queen of the Quarter. But you get to make choices that define who you are, what you want to be, choices that will affect the story, next episode, endings, paths, etc (and you choose ur name).

I'll release episodes for it every few months. I'm planning up to 10 episodes. General public gets the SFW version of the episodes for free. My members off site get the NSFW version of the episodes which will cost money (because it costs money to pay artists and I'm not rich and while i'm delusional, im not delusional enough to think i could learn to be a good artist in a short amount of time to draw cool/sexy CG's lol. so the money from it will pay for the artists as i make more episodes).

When/where will I share a link/release the first episode? I'll let you know on JAI mid November, that's my target release date for the first episode (until then, I'm still tapping away and working on it, polishing and learning lots!)

This will be available for PC (linux, mac, windows). And for android phones (APK file). Not sure if I can get it on iphone (the game engine I use is quite difficult to compile and pack it for iphone) but ill attempt.

Here are some screenies of the game in development (language will be english, this is just placeholder text to avoid spoilers!)






anyways, i'll get back to bot making in november~ and ill also post a rentry with a bunch of my advice for making a game, tutorials, links, frameworks, code tips and all that in case you're interested too whenever i post the first chapter. cause i've learned lots!


And not to be sappy, I don't know if I would have made this game without the love you guys had for my characters and world. Thank you for enabling my creativity ~
